Helix 3 Preloader
oekmed
Hello. Following problem: After the update from Joomla 3.11 to 4.3, as well as with a new installation, the preloader no longer works in the Helix 3 template. When the page is called up for the first time, everything is fine. But as soon as you want to go back from another page to the previous one, the preloader takes an infinitely long time to load, but you don't get to the desired page. It only works again after deleting the cache, both in the browser and in the backend. However, again only exactly once until the cache is cleared again. With the preloader disabled, everything works as it should. The problem occurs on all sites I tested. How to fix the problem. Thanks.

Accepted AnswerHi,
Honest advice - disable site preloader from template options, in modern times (with speed internet) it doesn't make sense anymore, also Google/Bing don't like it.
Without your site will load a bit faster and google will give you extra few points.
There are other better methods to give users a better expirence than using preloader animation. For example using optimization (speed-up) extension.
