Async JavaScript Plugin

    I was having intermittent trouble with my front page slider—not sliding— and my number counter—not showing (and not counting). On a second page, only the photos of the slider weren’t working—and I couldn’t figure it all out until today, when:

    My PDF Embedder stopped working, so one-by-one I determined it to be an AsyncJavaScript plugin problem. Turn it off—everything is working and normal— the problem is: I want to continue to use the plugin.

    I DID ‘exclude’ my ‘PDF Viewer’ within the Async plugin, but it didn’t correct the problem.

    Solution to get my site running in-full: Deactivate the plugin.

    Any better suggestions?

    Async method chosen.

    Tried a different browser with similar results. The 2 carousels did move on this one, though; still no number counter.

    (index):91 Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
    at (index):91
    (anonymous) @ (index):91
    (index):241 Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
    at (index):241
    (anonymous) @ (index):241
    jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=1.4.1:2 Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
    at jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=1.4.1:2
    (anonymous) @ jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=1.4.1:2

    Thanks!

    OK, that means you’ll have to change jquery.js config to not to be asynced (or deferred).

    JQuery now set to EXCLUDE

    JavaScript Method only gives Async of Defer. I set to now DEFER and we are working again.

    Is the plugin working at all with these non-Async settings? Should I just turn it off?

    Very, very much appreciated,

    depends; if you are not aggregating your JS then you’ll have a lot of JS-files that benefit from being asynced. If however you’re using Autoptimize (or something similar) then your aggregated JS is probably deferred already so in that case AsyncJS is of less use to you.

    hope this helps,

    can’t access your site due to a problem with your HTTPS certificate @tgoarant , so the only advice I can give at this moment is to check your browser’s console for JS errors + not to async or defer jQuery + try to exclude plugins from async to see if this fixes anything.

    hope this helps,
    frank

    re browser console see https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors#Firefox

    re what to exclude; not idea what you’re using and what might be causing the issues, but who not try some classic trial and error? 🙂
