    Instapress now throws an error message:

    Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'live'

    This seems to be a plugins as well. If I disable it though, another error is thrown by the ‘footer-scripts.js’ file, which seems to be expected FancyBox to be enabled.

    See if you can first solve all JavaScript errors existing on the page. (this is always good practice) You can do so by using Google Chrome, pressing the F12 key and going to the ‘Console’ tab in the frame that opens. Or doing the same in Firefox after installing Firebug.

    I don’t understand what it was, but I updated two of my plug-ins (Contact Form 7 and Mini Tweets) and now it works again. Thanks for your help!

    Hi Stephan,

    I am getting a very weird JavaScript error on my slideshow pages with no slideshows coming up! the error is “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘length’ of undefined “
    I cant work out what that means…

    Example page: https://www.jameslipari.com.au/blog/?page_id=148

    This only started happening after I updated the plugin

    Cheers

    Hi J,

    The error is caused because the slideshow’s container ID does not match any settings ID. This means that the slideshow won’t be able to find any settings.

    What suprised me, was that the slideshow’s script is in the ‘<head>‘ area of your website. Did you move it there?

    Best regards,
    Stefan

    I have copied word for word the short code listed so that shouldn’t be a problem.
    I havent moved it, however I did recently update my theme, could it be something at their end that has moved it? That is very strange indeed!

    They could indeed have changed something in the theme that prevents plugins from loading their scripts at the bottom of the page. Although loading a script at the bottom of the page is absolutely necessary for the slideshow plugin.

    I see though, that you’ve switched to a different slideshow.
