    Hello – I updated wordpress and plugins a couple of days ago and since then the filter on our newspage isn’t working – the ‘search’ button has disappeared. I’m not sure if it’s related to the update or due to something different. Does anyone how how I can fix this?

    Also, the drop down menus on some of the pages have stopped working. Again, unsure if it’s due to the update or something else.

    If anyone has any advice I’ve really appreciate it!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @lucyellenm,
    there are several javascript errors in your website, which are preventing the search and filtering components from working correctly. Basically, all of your js scripts which rely upon the jQuery library are failing just because the latter isn’t loading.
    I’ve checked your source code and i can see your website is trying to load the jQuery library on an insecure connection (http): you should change this to an https socket layer just like so:
    <script type=’text/javascript’ src=’https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js?ver=5.1′></script&gt;

    Since your website is pulling the jQuery library from the Google CDN, the connection must be on a secure layer.

    By the way, please keep upated all of your theme and plugins, since they might not be completely compatible with WP 5.1.

    Hope this helps ??
