wp_carousel Not working – Not Scrolling
-
wp_carousel is not longer working, what is going on? Is it going to be fixed? I had to make it static for now. It does not scroll any more. Any one has come up with a solution?
Thanks,

I don’t understand. Which version of both WP Carousel and WordPress are you using? Can you post the URL of your page? Have you changed your WordPress theme? If your WordPress theme does not have a call to wp_footer() function, WP Carousel won’t work (as well as many other plugins).
I can’t fix anything if you don’t post more information I can’t fix anything.
I have the latest of everything, the last wordpress 3.1, plus the latest wp-carusel. The website is: https://comerciolatino.ca/
There is no javascript errors, or nothing, I did deactivated every pluggin, and still did not work. I am at a lost why the carusel is not working. Let me know,
Thanks,
I think it is a Javascript error.
I’ve checked your code and I’ve found the following code:
<!--START SIMPLE COLORBOX--> <link type="text/css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" href="https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/colorbox.css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/jquery.colorbox.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ //Colorbox autogenerated rel tag script lines }); </script> <!--END SIMPLE COLORBOX-->
WordPress uses jQuery.noConflict() to prevent Javascript problems if you use jQuery with other framworks. WP Carousel, by default, uses .noConflict(), too.
If you use this feature of jQuery, you have to use jQuery instead of $ in your scripts. If you look at the code I’ve posted before you’ll find this:
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ //Colorbox autogenerated rel tag script lines }); </script>
You should change it to this:
<script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function(){ //Colorbox autogenerated rel tag script lines }); </script>
It should fix the problem.
Thanks, I did follow the instructions, the problem you mentioned was with another plugin, which is “Simple Cbox” the problem is that that is not the problem. I did de-activated EVERY plugin in this installation, and the problem continued. The only thing that changed was that I did a re-new installation of WordPress. From 3 to 3.2.1 that is all.
I would venture to say that it could be that updated WP and that is that this plugin is not ready for the newest WP?
It shows static. Nothing moves.
Basically, even if I want them to move manually adding the arrows, nothing happens.
Any one?
I think it is static because of a Javascript problem. This is what Firebug shows me:
config.$gallery is undefined
https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/wp-carousel/js/stepcarousel.js?ver=3.2.1
Line 297
This problem has been reported before and the problem was something similar to what I said before. The last time I’ve solved a problem like this was 3 weeks ago (check this topic).
Firebug shows more errors (404 errors for some Javascript files):
“NetworkError: 404 Not Found – https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/jquery.min.js”
jquery.min.js
“NetworkError: 404 Not Found – https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/jquery.colorbox.js”
jquery…rbox.js
“NetworkError: 404 Not Found – https://comerciolatino.ca/wp-content/plugins/simple_cbox/colorbox/colorbox.css”
colorbox.css
uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [src*=gravatar.com/avatar]You can try the following, but I’m not sure if it will fix the problem:
- Open wp-content/plugins/wp-carousel/js/stepcarousel.js with a text editor.
- Locate the following code in line 7:
jQuery.noConflict()
- Remove that code
I’ve been checking StepCarousel documentation and I’ve found that there is a newer version available (released on August 15th, 2011). According to the changelot there was just one fix:
1) Fixed animation queuing issue in FF5+ and Chrome when jQuery Library 1.6+ is used.
I’m not sure if it is related with your problem, but you can download this release and try it from here.
You can also use jCarousel instead of StepCarousel. If it is a StepCarousel-specific problem, using jCarousel will solve it.
Thanks for your help. Weird, but stepcarousel.js was not inside or included that folder. So if I chose this, nothing happens. I did follow the instructions to edit stepcarousel.js after I did upload it to the folder. If I choose to change from jcarousel to StepCarousel nothing happens either! ohy!
The only thing I can think of, as to why the slider stopped working was because WordPress upgrade it its system, and this plugin is not longer compatible to WordPress 3.2.1. I have disable every pluggin, and this thing keeps buggy.
Has any one found a solution for this? Or a plugging similar to this one that works?
Thanks,
I use WP Carousel at sumolari.com with jQuery 1.3 and WordPress 3.2.1 and it works. In localhost I use WordPress 3.2.1 and jQuery 1.6 and it works, too.
I don’t know why it is not working (I see that you are including jQuery more than once – and different versions, too – as well as some Javascript files don’t exist and its content is your site default 404 error page – which includes more Javascript – both problems could be causing the error), I think it is a Javascript error, but I don’t know exactly what is going wrong. I would suggest you remove all the Javascript code your site use, and try if WP Carousel works. Then add one by one each Javascript file. When the error reappears you’ll know which file is causing the error and it will be easier to fix it.
You could set up WP Carousel to use jCarousel instead of StepCarousel. It is just a carousel’s option that appears if your WP Carousel theme supports jCarousel (default theme support it). As the error seems to be StepCarousel-specific, if you set up your carousel to use jCarousel instead of StepCarousel, the error will disappear.
When I save the carusel, I get 404 error searching for: /wp-content/plugins/wp-carousel/get_db.php 1001ms
What does that mean?
Please Help Me! I just updated WP to 3.2.1 and now my carousel is not working. Here is the link to my website.
