Slider disappears when NextGen is activated.

I have the same issue using the Asteria theme. The Nivo Slider that is embedded in the theme disappears from the home page when I activate NextGen.
The site is https://relpnc.org/

@nikiontime – Unfortunately if a “paid” theme author doesn’t want to help you with this then we may not be able to do much more for you but we can try. We will need a Bug Report (https://www.nextgen-gallery.com/report-bug/) with your site specifics.

We will also need log in and FTP credentials for your WordPress installation, please include those with the Bug Report.

@paul Hartman – Your issue is most likely not the same and you should create your own topic, but as you noted you have “Nivo Slider that is embedded” this is a common issue for those themes, but the actual plugin by the developer of Nivo Slider appears to work fine with NextGEN Gallery. I would take this up with your theme author to see if they can address the issue. Otherwise, please start your own topic.

Thanks!

The symptoms were:
Activating the NextGen Gallery plugin caused the homepage slider to disappear. The theme is Asteria. https://relpnc.org

I noticed an error in Firebug console:
$(“ul.main-navigation”).superfish({
TypeError: $ is not a function

Found a solution here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12258282/typeerror-is-not-a-function-wordpress

Original code in footer.php

<!-- Initialize the Slider, Dropdown Menu and jQuery Tabs -->
<script type="text/javascript">
$(window).load(function() {
	$('#slider').nivoSlider();
});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
$("ul.main-navigation").superfish({
		animation: {height:'show'},   // slide-down effect without fade-in
		delay:     1200               // 1.2 second delay on mouseout
	});
</script>

Revised code in footer.php

<!-- Initialize the Slider, Dropdown Menu and jQuery Tabs -->
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	$(window).load(function() {
		$('#slider').nivoSlider();
	});
});
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
	$("ul.main-navigation").superfish({
		animation: {height:'show'},   // slide-down effect without fade-in
		delay:     1200               // 1.2 second delay on mouseout
	});
});
</script>

Your theme may be similar.

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunatly the problem looks to be somewhere else. I dont have the same error in firebug and the php looks different !
Anyway, thanks again for your answer !
