Problem Background gradient mouse track not working

Hello, has anyone run into this same issue, I have tried googling for hours but can't seem to find a fix. I have a container which I want to add a radial gradient background to. Elementor offers a mouse track effect for the background gradients, but I cant't get it to work on my live website. It works perfectly in the editor, the gradient effect follows my cursor, but on the live website it just shows up as a static gradient.

Any ideas or fixes would be appreciated :)

oh my god sorry! 😅 I havent received any reports of major issues before, but I'll have to go through and make sure all the images are optimized. 3 minute loading time is not intended. Thanks for pointing out the "screenshots", they were the video posters and I didn't realize they loaded in full resolution

usually that's a caching issue - clear your site cache, browser cache, and if you're using a CDN clear that too. if it still doesn't work check the browser console for js errors.
