slider interferes with external links load

[andrea-86]

probably I am I missing some step but I have a problem with the external link load in the section where I have a slider. When you click on the external link, if the page(section) switches to the next slide (with a corresponding URLs change, eg: http://mydomain.com/main.asp#firstPage change in http://mydomain.com/main.asp#firstPage/1) the outer page loading is interrupted. Is there a way to prevent this, such by stopping the slider when I click on the link, so the page is redirected properly?

Thanks

Please be more specific and add an isolated reproduction in jsfiddle or codepen as detailed in the reporting issues guidelines.

I can't understand your problem.

i can't reproduce that on fiddle because link to external page dosn't work there.

anyway, i think i solved the problem adding a clerInterval for the slider, like this:

var slideTimeout;
$('#fullpage').fullpage({
...
afterRender: function () {
                //on page load, start the slideshow
                slideTimeout = setInterval(function () {
                    $.fn.fullpage.moveSlideRight();
                }, 5000);

                $("a.external-link").on("click",function(){
                    clearInterval(slideTimeout);//prevent slide moving so external link can goes to external page
                });

            },
...
});

I'll close the issue then.
