How to include JQuery

    Hello,

    This plugin looks exactly like what I need – however, although I followed the installation and setup steps, noting happens. Nothing appears on the website. I understood that I need to include JQuery beforehand? If so, do I have to manually download JQuery and add it in the header of my website? Or is something else needed?

    Thank you.

    jQuery is used already on most themes, so you shouldnt need to download it. Did you enable the plugin and set the number of tabs to show? What is the web address?

    Thanks for the quick answer. I forgot to mention I’m developing my own theme, so I don’t think I’ve needed JQuery so far. This is my website: https://www.violetraindrops.co.uk/

    I have activated the plugin and set up the settings for all the tabs.

    Thank you.

    Yes try adding jquery. To do that add <?php wp_enqueue_script("jquery"); ?> before your wp_head() call or somewhere in the <head> section.

    Let me know what the outcome is!

    Thanks, I’ve tried these but still nothing changed…

    It just crossed my mind though that perhaps the plugin is using the sidebar? I haven’t included sidebars in my theme so perhaps that’s why it’s not displaying anything?

    It does not use the sidebars. Try updating WP-Flybox to v6.30 and then go to “Other Options” and change “Load jQuery” to “Yes”. This will check if it is loaded and load what is needed. Let me know results please!

    Thank you, I did this but still no change though… I will investigate more in the following days.

    One last thing. I am assuming you have incorporated wp_footer in your theme?

    ...
<?php
   /* Always have wp_footer() just before the closing </body>
    * tag of your theme, or you will break many plugins, which
    * generally use this hook to reference JavaScript files.
    */
    wp_footer();
?>
</body>
</html>

    See documentation for more info if you have not
