Customizr slider and Lightbox issues – Possibly W3 Total Cache related

I am experiencing multiple issues and will try to condense ths as much as possible. I am fairly tech savvy and can try to work with the dev team if you need me to.

Lets start with the techncal details. I’ve tried resolvng this issue in FF, Chrome and Aurora. Clear cache, cookeies etc… use private / incognito mode.. no change. All versions are current (I keep everything updated quite frequently). OS is updated Win 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. The problems persists through all versions.

I have the following plugins:

Add From Server
Advanced Custom Fields
Akismet
All 404 Redirect to Homepage
All In One Schema.org Rich Snippets
AntiVirus
Autoptimize – DEACTIVATED = INCOMPATIBILITY? WITH W3
Cookies for Comments
Google Analytics by Yoast
iThemes Security
Jetpack by WordPress.com – OPENGRAPH IS DISABLED IN FUNCTIONS.PHP
MOJO Marketplace – DEACTIVATED – ONLY ACTIVATE WHEN IN USE
NextGEN Gallery
Redirection
Use Google Libraries
W3 Total Cache
Wordfence Security
Wordfence Security
WordPress SEO
WPDBSpringClean
WP Gallery Custom Links

Now to the issues…

It appears that new visitors who visit my site don’t get an anmated slider. The slider shows up, but the first slide never changes. When you click on the arrow, the page scrolls down a few lines and it doesn’t change. So, when you click the slider arrows… the page jumps down a few lines so the top of the slider image is at the top of the page like this:

When clicking the arrows, you are directed to this URL (the page doesn’t reload, it just jumps down)

Furthermore, the animated previews on the page (the Discover More buttons and the post previews) do not work either. When you highlight one of the image preview snippets, it does not expand the preview.

Sometimes this problem is resolved after refreshing the page… sometimes you have to refresh the page several times before it works. Sometimes it does nto work at all. This is not specific to one browser, OS or solution. It kinda works when it wants.

The next issue I am having is that sometimes the RSS / social buttons at the top of the site are missing…

Aaaaaand other times they are some sort of foreign characters… sometimes they show up properly. I wish I wold have screenshot it live; but I found a cached version with the characters. They appear Asian… maybe Russian. Or Gibberish???

You might be asking yourself why I think this is W3 related. When I clear caches and reload my page, I get errors about errors creating caches when I load the site for the first time after clearing caches (even though my google page speed rank goes up TREMENDOUSLY with it activated)

I figure since the slider sometimes works when you refresh the page a few times…. it must be cache related.

I applied the following fix to functions.php with no result

*add_action (‘wp_footer’, ‘slider_trigger’, 50);

function slider_trigger() {
?>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
!function($){
jQuery(function(){
$(‘#customizr-slider’).carousel({interval:5000})
})
}(window.jQuery)
</script>
<?php
}*
