Hi I just updated to the latest version and some aspects of my site that use jquery no longer work (while they used to have no problem – and work just fine with event espresso deactivated). I am calling this in the header to make some boxes appear on click: <script src=”http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js”></script> Can you tell me where the problem with the plugin may be? | |
Hi, Its hard to say without seeing the site to check for errors (a link would be great!), but it might be that you are using a version of jQuery not supplied with WordPress (not advised) and that the script is using the short form of jQuery ($). Often when errors occur and the shortform is in use, it is due to the shortform not being called correctly. As mentioned without seeing the site the above is guesswork. | |
Thanks for the quick response :) The site is not online atm, so I would have to give you an account to see it. I am calling the latest jquery in header.php, does the new wordpress also call it maybe? indeed it gives an error in the console: Uncaught TypeError: Property ‘$’ of object [object Object] is not a function <script> | |
The latest WordPress calls jQuery 1.10.2. Ok, there’s the answer ‘$’ of object [object Object] means that you are using $ but have you or whoever wrote the code, has not correctly placed jQuery in no conflict mode – http://digwp.com/2011/09/using-instead-of-jquery-in-wordpress/ | |
Thank you so much! this fixed the problem :) | |
