HELP ! SOS !! My theme stops image plugins from working

  • I have created a theme. I worked through a tutorial to convert a HTML template into a theme

    The problem is I want to use an image plug in like shutter reloaded or lightbox & my theme is doing something to stop them working.

    I have no idea where to start to fix this???

    Can anyone help.

    I started to have a go by removing the style sheet but that did not help so the code must be somehwere else but I have no idea where. I would start again & work on twenty10 or twenty11 & convert them to look like mine but this will surely take me ages !! Or is that my best option

    You can check out what I have done so far on this is my test site only a few links work & as a temporary fix I have added some hand coded lightbox that is from the old site. A plug in would be smoother though & I have activated shutter but it only works as I said on another theme

    HELP please

  • Relax. SCREAMING HELP doesn’t help. We’re all volunteers here.

    Your theme is missing the main jQuery library that other scripts and plugins will need. You need to learn how to correctly include jQuery and other javascript libraries. See Function Reference/wp enqueue script ? WordPress Codex

    And learn how to use Firebug with Firefox, or use the developer tools in Chrome or Safari or IE to see what’s loading on your site and to work with javascript errors.

    LOL sorry forgot about the caps thing although must admit it was a sort of scream that I was feeling so actually it was kind of apt.

    Thank you for the advice. I will do some reading up on the function reference library

    Meanwhile I downloaded a blank template & am busy reworking it to contain my style code to see if that works better.

    All a learning curve here although so far must confess I am mightily impressed by wp ??
