This is what happened:

I got a message from Google Search Console what said that https://www.magoster.nl/blog-faq/blog-index/ had mobile usability problems. When I validated a solution I got the message “solved” but saw somewhere that warning for https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.4/i18n/datepicker-nl.min.js?ver=1.11.4. The warning said “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘regional’ of undefined”.

As datepicker was mentioned I went to my booking form pages and remembered that that developement bundle was already old. Earlyer this year I had tot update from PHP 5 tot PHP 7 being afraid for obsolete software. In the same line of thinking I thought that that development bundle could be the cause of that ajax warning. To avoid possible future problems I thought that using a newer development bundle could be a good idea, being the cause or not. And so I opened this topic.

But you said: the call to jQuery UI would have always been unnecessary as it is bundled with WordPress core. Shouldn’t I remove all my own jquery commands (echo etc.)?

Sorry if I have misled you, I was unaware of that!

I replaced:
echo ‘<script language=”JavaScript” type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.magoster.nl/jquery-ui-1/development-bundle/ui/jquery.ui.core.js“></script>’;
with:
echo ‘<script language=”JavaScript” type=”text/javascript” src=”https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.0/jquery-ui.js”></script>&#8217;;

Or should I do more.

Was that what you wanted me to do? The form now fails and gives a validation error (field not filled in but it does have a value!)

By the way, I have an english site that is a look alike but that I treat as a testsite. This is the page that fails: https://www.magoster.com/booking-preparation/ with identical jquery scripts.

To avoid a misunderstanding, the booking form works well. But that Google warning made me think that I am going to face problems in nearby future due to – supposed – obsolete software.

But you said: the call to jQuery UI would have always been unnecessary as it is bundled with WordPress core. Shouldn’t I remove all my own jquery commands (echo etc.)?

Thank you for giving so much support. But a new problem has arosen: my wife said “diner is ready”.

I have to obey I am afraid… ??

I will do as you suggested and report back later on.

Let me introduce myself, I am an amateur who has learned a lot but for whom jquery has always remained a little “terra incognita”.

I got a warning from Google:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘regional’ of undefined
https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.4/i18n/datepicker-nl.min.js?ver=1.11.4

This is confusing because this https is NOT specified on the page with the code mentioned in the top here.

Andrew, I cannot give more which is, I am afraid, to little.

Or my question should be altered to: should I download new development bundle?
But you said: the call to jQuery UI would have always been unnecessary as it is bundled with WordPress core. Is there a page where I can read more about this? Or is it enough to remove both echo’s <script .. etc. (top of this blog)?

Well yuvalsabar, this certainly makes sense. I have to try this on several sites so this will take some time. I am using Autoptimize inderdaad and I want to experience with some settings. I’ll report back later on!

Thanks for giving me this idea!

It has been solved, a very nasty one!

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/no-in-tag-pages-anymore/

This has been solved!

In order to reduce loadtime I have made many changes (htaccess, header.php, functions.php, many php functions, many javascript functions, defered loading, etc.) and one of them caused this.

My former theme had a sidebar of which one widget hadn’t been removed. That one is not active and does not show. The widget was fed with a daily updated php-function.

Recently I decided to remove all obsolete php-functions. Testing all pages gave no problem. Now this removal appears, although not shown, the cause of a malfunction while showing the footer of a blog. The blog breaks overthere, no footer is shown.

Removing the widget has fixed the problem. A very invisible nasty problem!

Lesson learned: when a page is not finished on screen check all of the php-functions. Even when thought not to be used for over a half year. From now on I will maintain a changelog.

You will be right, so I will have to think about what changes I have made in the last weeks. So many unfortunately…

Thank you for all your help, I am sure I will miss your expertise! ;-(

I am not sure that it is a theme thing.

The same blog is visible on my other site:
https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu/2012/06/verdient-een-omweg-spa/

With the same tag: golf:
https://www.vakantiehuisverhuur.eu/tag/golf/
This tag page shows right.

The difference is javascript aggregate (magoster.nl) and minify (vakantiehuisverhuur.eu).

This issue is rather new and maybe I am using AO longer then I think. Tuesday I will try several scenarios on https://www.magoster.com because I am almost convinced that this is AO-related.

Unbelievable, you did it again.

My asked me to go oytside with the little girl. To be honest, that’s fun! And less stressing then this all. So forgive, some radio silence will follow now, I will try your suggestion for the blog later.

For the moment, I don’t know what I should do, the blogs themselves are alright, it’s only when then appear with the tag.

Wrong = tag: https://www.magoster.nl/tag/golf/
Right = blog: https://www.magoster.nl/2012/06/spa-parel-van-de-ardennen/

Ticking all tags under that blog gave that error. Theme error? But is has not been reported by Google before.

On a blog that suddenly fails I see this:

Doing Ctrl-u on the page I see at the end:
<!–noptimize–><!– Autoptimize found a problem with the HTML in your Theme, tag /body missing –><!–/noptimize–>

It has been seen by Google on 9th of february. When I remember things right I had not started activating AO already.
It is a “tag-problem. The blogs themselves end good however the end woth the same hidden remark.

I am getting a little confused.

I wanted to give you the most simple form, the contact form. But hey, it DOES give a thank-you page.
https://www.magoster.nl/contact/.

Then the booking form, I tested it once more. Two times it gave an error by sending but pushing the buttum again the form sended. The third attempt went without out error. But in all three cases NO thank-you page.
https://www.magoster.nl/boeking-eerste-keer/

Thank you.

Redirection works:
– with AO
– with AO javascript minimized

Redirection does not work:
– with AO all javascript merged

OK, so I understand I have an issue for CF7 Redirection because I do not know what JS-file to exclude.

Thank you for all your help so far, it has improved loadtime of my sites!

It took some time, there is a 2 years old little girl overhere… ??

On my site(s) WordPress and all plugins are up to date. Coincidentally also an update for Contact Form 7 Redirection appeared this weekend and has been updated.
I am using Contact Form 7 plugins for booking forms and contact form. After sending a “thank you”-page appears which is done by CF7 Redirection.

All site content including sending a form functions allright. CF7 does give a confirmation that an email has been sent and I get that email in my inbox. So far so good but the redirection to this “thank you”-page doesn’t work any more.

Possibly I could/should exclude a certain.js file but no idea which one.

Looks this familiar to you or should I post this as a new issue on the CF7 Redirection forum?
