Hi Kevin,

I checked and Garth is correct in that the version of jQuery that’s loading from your theme is throwing a 404 not found error. Here is the link that your site is trying to load jQuery from:

http://www.ontargetsitedev.com.php53-6.ord1-1.websitetestlink.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js?ver=1.9.1

It would probably be the simplest to find the code that’s loading the jQuery library and point it to load up the jQuery library from the WordPress installation. Please see this article for more info:

Hi Kevin,

I forgot to mention that are other errors when you view the page in the web inspector.

Like this one:

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

Which is from the theme’s scripts.js not using jQuery in no conflict mode:

$(function() {
	
	// SVG fallback
	// toddmotto.com/mastering-svg-use-for-a-retina-web-fallbacks-with-png-script#update
	if (!Modernizr.svg) {
		var imgs = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
		var dotSVG = /.*\.svg$/;
		for (var i = 0; i != imgs.length; ++i) {
			if(imgs[i].src.match(dotSVG)) {
				imgs[i].src = imgs[i].src.slice(0, -3) + "png";
			}
		}
	}

});

You’ll likely need to fix all the JavaScript errors in the theme before the calendar will appear. What happens is when JavaScript throws and error on a web page, other scripts that load later down the page (like the calendar) may not run.

The other thing that’s happening is the calendar script is getting paragraph tags added to it. This is another issue with the theme. You might be able to work around it by wrapping the calendar shortcode with raw tags like this:

[raw][ESPRESSO_CALENDAR][/raw]

If the above trick doesn’t remove the p tags, you will need to find the code in the theme that is removing the standard WP format functions and disable that code.

Hi Kevin,

You’ll need to remove the raw tags then, and find the code in the theme that’s removing the WordPress autoformatting functions.

As an alternative, you could create a page template for the calendar page. Which would basically bypass the calendar getting loaded from the content.

If you go that route, you’d add the calendar widget directly into the page template like this:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[ESPRESSO_CALENDAR show_expired=false]'); ?>
