jQuery Nivo Slider: Code Ninjas, help me!

There was a bug in jQuery 1.6.x (you have 1.6.1, I encountered the same problem in 1.6.2).

This error appeared in my console.

event.layerX and event.layerY are broken and deprecated in WebKit. They will be removed from the engine in the near future.

I upgraded my jQuery to v1.7 and it got rid of the error. It was a known bug. Try it and let me know. If not, I’ll try again.

Awesome site btw.

Oh, awesome.

Thank you! How does one upgrade their jQuery? I’m some what of a noob when it comes to this.

Did you download a ready-made theme?

That is correct.

Something tells me I may need to use my FTP meow?

Note: Please backup any files, take a complete backup of the theme to be on the safe side, so you can restore it if it goes badly.

Well, if you purchased the theme and got support, the person maybe able to help you? If not, you will of course need FTP, and to download the latest JQuery version from the JQuery website.

You’ll need to upload this to your theme, possibly overwrite the old version with the new one, and find the reference to jquery.js?ver=1.6.1 in your header.php and change it to 1.7 for consistency. Hopefully that is the fix. If not, we’ll try again.

If you have any contact details for the person who built the theme, give them a shout to let them know.

Wow thanks!

Yeah, I’ll pass the message along. The guy that created it said it was due to my disqus plugin, to which I thought was a tad off.

I’ll pass the info along!

Pass him on the event.layerX bug I posted above.
