Hi Vera, you’ve got everything setup correctly. The issue is that there is a conflict with your theme. The theme has a file in it called “customscript.js” that is using the “$” jQuery shortcut in some places, instead of the full “jQuery” version. This is causing a conflict with Meteor Slides, which is breaking the script for the slideshows.
This is happening because your theme is using a different version of jQuery instead of the version of jQuery built into WordPress, which Meteor Slides uses. WordPress doesn’t support the “$” shortcut in jQuery because it loads it in No Conflict mode: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script#jQuery_noConflict_Wrappers
To fix this I would update your theme to also use the built in version of jQuery. You should be able to find a line of code that looks like this in your header.php or functions.php file:
<script type='text/javascript' src='//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js?ver=1.7.1'></script>
Remove that and add this to your functions.php file:
function dullaert_enqueue_jquery_script() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dullaert_enqueue_jquery_script' );
That will load the built in version of jQuery and because it is done through WordPress, WordPress will see that the theme and at least one plugin are using jQuery, and only load this file once.
That should resolve the problem, but if the slideshow still doesn’t work, you need to fix the custom script in your theme. To fix the “customscript.js” file in your theme’s “js” folder, you need to wrap that code so that the “$” shortcut can be used:

Here is a copy of the custom script with this wrapper added:

Sorry, I know that is kind of complicated, but the theme wasn’t built correctly and the only way to resolve the issue is to fix this problem in your theme.
