Troubleshooting templates

The following is a potential issue with one of our Bio Sites templates and the steps you can take to avoid it.

Scrolling header issue in the Cami Sandro template

In the Cami Sandro template, the scrolling header will not scroll smoothly if you add extra spaces to the repeated header text. For example, if your scrolling header text repeats, such as - "Welcome to my site - Welcome to my site - Welcome to my site" ensure that there are no extra spaces, especially if you are copying and pasting text.
