Plugin breaks theme

    = I installed Meteor Slides, and now my theme or plugin’s jQuery goodies are broken! =

    Your theme or plugin is probably loading an extra copy of jQuery from the theme or plugin, or a third party server. This is unnecessary because WordPress already uses jQuery and it is included in the WordPress install. Meteor Slides loads the version that is within WordPress, to fix this, change your theme or plugin to use the copy of jQuery that comes with WordPress, like this <?php wp_enqueue_script(“jquery”); ?>.

    Which file, and where, does this code go?

    Also, I tried removing the jquery register and queue script from my theme’s Functions.php, and it didn’t work (theme was still broken).

    I really want to get Meteor Slides working – I’ve tried DOZENS of slideshows, and this is by far the best,

    Cheers
    Paul

    Hi Paul, it depends on the theme, but jQuery is probably added in either the header.php or functions.php file. It could also be a plugin conflict through.

    What theme are you using, can you post a link to the site you are working on?

    Hi J

    Thanks for the quick response!

    I’m using Reflex theme. The index file is still the old site, but the new site can be seen at http://www.beige.com.au/clients

    Cheers

    I couldn’t find this theme, but it looks like it might be a commercial theme, so I wouldn’t be able to look at the code that is loading all that jQuery. I think they are using something like wp_deregister_script or wp_dequeue_script to deactivate WordPress’ copy of jQuery and use a version from Google.
