Ticker just stopped working

You have quite a few javascript errors on your site:

https://snag.gy/GXYkA.jp
https://snag.gy/PVUDU.jpg

One of these is most likely killing the ticker script from running. Please run through this article https://metaphorcreations.ticksy.com/article/1483/ to see which plugin or theme may be causing these errors.

Thanks,

I’ve tried disabling all plugins and that didn’t fix the ticker.

Then I switched to the Twenty Sixteen theme and that didn’t fix it, until I put the [ditty_news_ticker id=”43″] shortcode on the home page (normally I have the php code in the theme)

The ticker worked.

Problem is it *was* working for months on the theme we actually use (Themify itheme2) and now it suddenly doesn’t.

Appreciate any further assistance you can offer.

Thanks

The error is likely in the theme. I use Themify Flow and in this thread https://themify.me/forum/topic/after-update-to-wordpress-4-5-theme-does-not-shown-as-it-was-before#post-198686 found the file and made the needed change.

Your theme may have the bit of code in another location. Looking at your console info it looks like the file and path are

/wp-content/themes/itheme2/themify/themify-builder/js/themify.scroll-highlight.js

Always make a backup first!!!!!!

On line 194 Edit the bit of code a[href*=#] to a[href*=”#”]:

$( this.options.context ).find( 'a[href*=#]' ).not( 'a[href=#]' ).on( 'click', function (e) {

to

$( this.options.context ).find( 'a[href*="#"]' ).not( 'a[href="#"]' ).on( 'click', function (e) {
