 * Please help. I am trying to use JCarousel in a site, and I just cannot get it
   to work. The best I can get is all the images displayed in a bulletted list. 
   I am tearing my hair out! I am developing the site locally – could this be a 
   problem?
 * Please help me.

 * You know the jQuery bundled with WordPress uses `jQuery.` rather than `$.` right?
   That had me stumped for ages…

 * I hope is have put the code in correctly…

 * Could you post the HTML you’re using as well? I think I might know what’s up,
   possibly. By the way, if you were trying to use backticks before, they’re not
   the same as quote marks.

 * I have no idea what a back tick is… Sorry – we have different names for punctuation
   here…
 * I have tried alsorts, but at the moment I ma trying these instructions:

   to call jc.php like this: but it has the same result.

 * A backtick is shown at the bottom of the post form 😛
 * I think those last instructions were written for a relatively old version of 
   WordPress. As far as I know, there _isn’t_ such thing as TEMPLATEPATH anymore,
   that’s been replaced. For the sake of simplicity, let’s try this. Put all the
   files for jCarousel under /wp-content/plugins/jcarousel and take out everything
   else, you start from the beginning.
 * In your theme’s functions.php (if you don’t have one, make one and put `<?php`
   and `?>` around the following), put:
 *     ```
       wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
       wp_enqueue_script( 'jcarousel', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/lib/jcarousel.js', array('jquery'), 0.2.3 );
       wp_enqueue_style( 'jcarousel', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/lib/jquery.jcarousel.css', null, 0.2.3 );
       wp_enqueue_style( 'jcarousel-ie7', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/skins/ie7/skin.css', array('jcarousel'), 0.2.3 );
       ```
   
 * then use the example javascript to load it in whichever page. Instead of using
   TEMPLATEPATH though, use `get_theme_root()`.
 * I _think_ that should work. You can’t use `<?php` tags inside a WordPress page
   though without a special plugin, only templates, so it might be easier to just
   use the code instead.
 * ….argh these tutorials are all horrible D:

 * Hi again
 * I tried all, but am now getting a parse error (still local – ftping in this country
   is a silly joke!)
 * The parse error is as follows:
    Parse error: parse error in C:\wamp\www\Thean\
   wp-content\themes\Thean\functions.php on line 10
 * the code for fucntions is as follows:
 *     ```
       <?php
        if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
        register_sidebars(2,array(
               'before_widget' => '',
           'after_widget' => '',
        'before_title' => '<h5>',
               'after_title' => '</h5>',
           ));
       wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
       wp_enqueue_script( 'jcarousel', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/lib/jcarousel.js', array('jquery'), 0.2.3 );
       wp_enqueue_style( 'jcarousel', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/lib/jquery.jcarousel.css', null, 0.2.3 );
       wp_enqueue_style( 'jcarousel-ie7', '/wp-content/plugins/jcarousel/skins/ie7/skin.css', array('jcarousel'), 0.2.3 );
       ?>
       ```

 * Oh… and I get the same error if I try to log in. If I remove the script in functions.
   php, I can get into the site, but the images appear as an bullet list.

 * Whoops. Apparently PHP doesn’t like having numbers with double decimals outside
   of quote marks.

 * Hi
 * Thank you
    It is still making a buletted list. Could it be the style sheet?
