Support » Plugins » Issue with getting plugin to work on WordPress starter theme

  • I’m trying to get a WP plugin called “Cyclone Slider 2” to work on my Underscores [ _s ] starter theme.

    I’ve tried to get this plugin to work — that is, to cycle through the slides — from both a local server, and a remote server, with no success.

    On my Twenty Twelve site the plugin works well. It cycles through the two slides that I’ve loaded, as expected. For the Underscores site I’m wondering if there’s something special that I need to do to get it to also cycle through the slides.

    The working plugin (on Twenty Twelve) can be seen at the bottom of the following page:

    The non-working plugin (on Underscores) can be seen at:

    I’ve tried using a number of different wp-enqueue’s to get the script to work (mainly in Underscore’s functions.php file), but none of my efforts have worked.

    Another thread that I found at http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/plugin-not-working-with-some-themes/103037 suggested that the Underscores theme “does not have jquery support by default”, and that the following code would need to be inserted into the functions.php file to get plugins to work.

    function jquery_scripts() {
         wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'jquery_scripts' );

    I tried this code but, again, no luck getting the slide viewer to cycle through the slides.

    I’m working on this site for a client, so your help would be greatly appreciated!
