ZX Slideshow support thread

[carlwhat]

A jquery mess! I like that... not. I think I have gone about implementing add-ons, following instructions and each may use a different version. It does look a mess and I agree trying to debug this is a nightmare. I'm running with Balihr right now on getting the CORS error corrected as it may just be running around between www and the non-www server request.

Thanks for the feedback. I feel I'm closing in on the issue with your assistance.

i think the CORS error should be easy to fix.... you guys can figure that out... although it looks easy enough to try and remove the www from both definitions in the configure file.

that HOWEVER is not the problem you are posting about. if you look at the console using developer tools you have the CORS error in both places; and yet one url the slider works, and the other url, the slider does not.

it is ENTIRELY possible that by removing the www and hopefully addressing the CORS error, the slider may work.... although i'm not sure why that world work....

as i previously stated, debugging jquery can be tricky, especially if you have limited experience...

here is the jquery error/loop....



best.

I see what you mean now and understand having taken a look at the developer tool. With jquery being the issue, I'm in over my head! If anyone has any further thoughts on this issue, open to hear them... otherwise, think it is time to seek some help from an someone who can debug this for me. I'll try the template guys first, but think this will just get passed back from support as my issue. As I said, I have implemented a number of add-ons myself and don't think they are playing together well at this stage from a jquery standpoint. Thanks again! Chris

First thing I would do is delete jquery and get a true version which would have a line like this at the top... /*! jQuery v1.11.1 | (c) 2005, 2014 jQuery Foundation, Inc. | jquery.org/license */ not like yours.. which is a stripped down version of something... which may work for what they was striped for and not much else! The amount of scripts you have loading may require more from jQuery then what you have now...

personally I use version 3 and load just after my css to make sure it gets set before any scripts that require it.. I use the latest versions of owl carousel without any issues.

This does seem to be caused by the template coding, although it's quite surprising - ZX Slideshow is integrated with A LOT of TemplateMonster's templates and works fine so I'm not sure why this template would be an exception... But, then again, it's TM so I'm surprised that I'm surprised...

First, change your configure files to have https on all lines:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://www.bareprotein.com.au');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.bareprotein.com.au');

Next, I'm not sure how that template was coded, but it seems to have div class="slider" and the jQuery is triggered on #slider so it's kinda confusing. Maybe it's just because part of the code isn't loaded at all.

If you want, feel free to PM me and I'll be happy to look into this because at this point I'm really curious.

OK, so... After a few PMs, we found it. And, folks, sit down and leave the popcorn so you don't choke... As always, the simplest thing was the answer. There's an old and IMHO obsolete* setting in Banner Manager that lets you choose whether to display a banner on SSL or not. In this case, it was set to No so the ZX Slideshow did load, but had no images to display since all of the banners were disabled on SSL pages. So, simply enabling the banners to show on SSL did the trick and the slides are now showing up...

*obsolete = due to the now must-have constant SSL connection, this setting is no longer needed

Wow, nice detective work!

Hi,

The jscript_jquery-1.7.1.min.js is having loading issues with the mobile menu. In my case there's no issue on homepage, product listing page, but when you go to a specific item (product info page), the menu doesn't load properly.

How should I go around this?
