Jetpack Carousel only working when I'm logged in?

    If you visit this page on my site, you will notice that you get the cool JetPack Carousel mosaic, but the titles are stuck in the ‘up’ position. If I’m logged into the site and browsing, I don’t have this problem, but it begins the minute I log out.

    Likewise, the Carousel itself stops working when I am logged out. If you click on any image, you see the standard page for that image, not the carousel display.

    If I am not logged in, I get the following javascript error:

    1. ReferenceError: Can't find variable: WPGroHo

    After more digging around, I figured it out that this happens when I have “View people’s profiles when you mouse over their Gravatars” in Discussion Settings. Is this a known bug?

    Could you try to disable the Minify option in W3 Total Cache, and let me know if it helps?

    Yup, turning off the JS minification in W3 Total Cache does the trick. How bothersome! Do you know why this is causing problems?

    I’m not too familiar with all the options in W3 Total Cache, but is it possible to exclude some of the libraries from being cached? I’m not exactly sure why the 2 plugins conflict, but if you could exclude jetpack/modules/wpgroho.js from being cached that should do the trick.

    It’s not possible to eliminate one file from miniification, but the following settings work:

    • JS minify enabled
    • Combine only
    • Non-blocking using JS

    The first and second combine all JS files into one request. The third makes that request only occur after the ‘page load’ event has fired, which makes your page feel more responsive to the user.

    Does one of the options solve the issue?

    The second one… It tells W3 Total Cache to not really minify the JS, but rather to simply combine all of the JS into one file (and one request… Requests are expensive.)

    Incidentally, I ended up turning off the ‘Non-blocking using JS’ option because it caused things to behave erratically. (Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t.)
