 * hello
    I just installed evolve today, because since wp upgrade my old theme profitmag
   went totally crazy.
 * Now i have 2 problems:
    1/Bootstrap slider does not work, the arrows point to/#
   bootstrap-slider and the slider is doesn’t show the next slide (i putted 5 pics).
   Do i have to configure something special to make it play?
 * 2/Front Page Content boxes
    I found the FontAwesome and selected mines, but the
   icons don’t show up
 * my blog [http://bit.ly/1I1bmY4](http://bit.ly/1I1bmY4)
    Thank you!!!

 * Hi,
 * I can see a javascript error on your site.
    Please see screenshot. [http://prntscr.com/7x3e1p](http://prntscr.com/7x3e1p)
 * It could be caused by your cache plugin, you should clear cache after doing any
   updating.
 * If clearing cache doesn’t work, try deactivating one plugin and clearing cache
   one at a time, to find out the conflicting plugin.
 * One javascript error will cause all scripts to stop working, which is why your
   slider does not work anymore.
 * As for your missing icon. Font Awesome icons are web fonts, it’s probably a CORS
   issue, please refer to this thread for more information.

 * As suggested by that thread, entering the following instructions in your .htaccess
   file should fix the issue.
 * `Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"`

 * Hi thanks for your support
 * I desactivated one by one each plugin + clear cache after each desactivation
   
   I even trashed my latest posts No result with the slider always blocked
 * I asked my hoster to have a look, but he had no idea.
 * I am desparate… i am working on this around the clock since friday, and cant 
   find out what to do. I have a DB backup 1 week old, but this would not solve 
   the problem i guess.

 * Hiya Nathalie & Denzel;
    as far as the “jQuery is not defined” error is concerned;
   that’s because autoptimize by default loads JS as late as possible. you can solve
   that by either “forcing JS into head” or by adding “jquery.js” (without the quotes)
   to the comma-seperated JS optimization-exclusion list. there’s more info [in the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/),
   if you would decide to go back to AO 😉
 * Kind regards,
    frank (ao’s dev)

 * Hi Frank, i tried this (“forcing JS into head” ), but this blocks instantly the
   sliders and also other plugins like contact form generator.
    So desactivated 
   autoptimize after new reinstalation…

 * Problem is always coming back… I have to clear cache each time, than works for
   a moment. And comes back later.
