Hi Richard,

Apologies for creating a new topic as I'm not able to add new reply to the earlier topic at http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/date-picker-stopped-working-after-update#post-345601 (it has been closed by the administrator).

As requested, I've changed my header.php to the given code but I'm now having problems with the newsticker and the nivoslider. Both plugins are not showing up. I was wondering if you could help me? My website can be found at http://www.gardeninternationalschool.com/

Many thanks in advanced for your help.

Regards,
Michael

Michael,

When I checked your page only the ticker wasn't working, in your theme's js folder you should find a file called global.js the first line of which should look like this
```
$(document).ready(function(){
```
can you change it to the following and then check your page again, you may need to clear your cache once you've made the change.
```
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
```

Hi Richard,

You're absolutely right. The NivoSlider is working ok.

I've changed the global.js to jQuery(document).ready(function($){ but unfortunately the ticker still not showing up. Any idea what else we need to change?

I'm so sorry for taking up so much of your time. Really appreciate it!

For some reason an old copy of jQuery (1.7.1) is being included from Google, the recommended version to use is 1.8.3 which is the version that is bundled in with WordPress, if you want to use a CDN copy I would advise you use a plugin such as Use Google Libraries it will call the same version that ships with WordPress.

Can you try removing the following line from header.php and then check your page again
```
<script>var $ = jQuery.noConflict();</script>
```

Thanks Richard. I have removed the <script>var $ = jQuery.noConflict();</script> but the ticker is still not showing up.

Also, I noticed the date picker button is also not showing up after changing the code, http://www.gardeninternationalschool.com/test-3/

Any idea what else we need to change? I'm so sorry for taking up so much of your time. Really appreciate it!

Michael it's not a problem. It looks like you added the JavaScript and PHP comment marker // outside the script, it will only work when placed inside the script tags, for comments outside the script tags you would use the standard html comment tags like so 

It still looks like an old CDN copy of jQuery 1.7.1 is being included which must be coming from one of the other plugins as we fixed the jQuery includes in the theme, nivo-slider and wp-lightbox.

If you want you could send me a temporary admin username and password to richard[at]rocketgenius[dot]com and I will take a closer look.
