Hello I recently purchased event espresso, after installing it my sliding stopped working. I kept reading that the problem could be jquery but I’m working on this myself and have no idea what that is. I currently have a temporary slider up but it doesnt place well with my theme. my website is http://www.positivevybez.com

Hi,

Without seeing the slide slider its hard to say 100% but currently the theme’s JavaScript is throwing errors. Which will causes issues like this.

The JS used by the theme is currently being called incorrectly and not using jQuery noConflict() This is shown using Chrome Dev tools, opening ‘Console’ and loading the page, you’ll see this http://d.pr/i/tkdc

Uncaught TypeError: Property ‘$’ of object [object Object] is not a function

Viewing the code shows http://d.pr/i/Lga7

jQuery(document).ready(function()

Should be

jQuery(document).ready(function($)

However you should check for an update to the theme, if none are available you should contact the author regarding this issue as this may just be the tip of the iceburg regarding JS errors.

Hi,

It should yes, the main issue is that your theme is calling jQuery’s no conflict mode incorrectly, see here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script#jQuery_noConflict_Wrappers
