    The support available for a free plugin seems amazing(!) so I figured I’d try my luck:

    I’ve been playing with this plugin all afternoon, but I cannot get rotation_type=”carousel” to work. I’m using shortcode in my php, here is the simplest but still not-working version:

    echo do_shortcode('[rotatingtweets screen_name="TheWanderingBen" rotation_type="carousel"]');

    Searching through previous solutions, I’ve tried turning on WP_DEBUG, but I still don’t see anything obviously wrong in my Javascript console or in the page source. It just seems like the plugin defaults to rotate_fx = scrollUp:

    JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 1.4.0
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:43 ============================
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:44 self_width = 720
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:45 parent_width = 750
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:46 grandparent_width = 800
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:47 rt_target_container_width = 720
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:48 rt_target_width = 720
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:49 rotate_timeout = 4000
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:50 rotate_speed = 1000
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:51 rotate_fx = scrollUp
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:52 rotate_pager = undefined
    rotating_tweet.js?ver=1.8.4:53 rotate_pager_template = undefined

    My development environment is developer.thewanderingben.com

    I’m just an amateur at web coding — never debugged JS or php, so I’m in a bit over my head. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you,
    Ben

    It does. Unfortunately, only version 2 of the JavaScript supports the carousel format.

    What happens if you move to version 2 of the JavaScript on the Rotating Tweets settings page?

    Oh wow, I had seen the condition “If you are using version 2 of the JavaScript…” in the plugin Installation instructions, but I had assumed it meant the version of JavaScript my server was running — since everything was up to date, I thought I was fine.

    I had no idea there was a setting for the plugin itself where you could toggle the JavaScript versions. I’m a complete dolt! Thank you for the quick response. Yes, everything works as intended now!
