Tell us what you are trying to do?
We have an infinitive scroll on this page which works fine: hidden link
The problem is even though we have a spinner added to show we cannot see it on screen.

It's not that it doesn't work, but it works only on a very particular setting and circumstances. So it is almost equal to "does not work".

Basically, you'd have to disable caching and preloading of the items, and even so, you might not see the spinner if your connection is - literally - to fast.

We have an internal task to make the spinners on infinite scroll work as we humans would expect it, meaning from the first-second pagination is triggered, and not a slight delay after as it is now.
While these works are done, the feature will be reviewed, and I have added a note to consider as well to not require un-caching and not preloading items, as that is counterintuitive.

For now, I cannot offer any other solution, however, and will keep you updated about the progress here.

OK. I will use the recommendations you suggested. Any thoughts on how we could show text to stay "Loading More" until all are loaded?

#1543035

There isn't such feature inbuilt to have a "load more" option in infinite scroll. You'd have to suggest this at https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/
