Hi. I have been trying to get jquery to work on my custom worpdress theme and i cant get it to work.. I know you have to use the wp_enqueue_script() to call the jquery library and to replace the $()”, with jQuery() .
Im trying to get an image slider to show some of my work on and it just wont work..
Anyone have any ideas? Or any good sites with info/tutorials on?
Maybe i'm wrong but as far as i know jQuery is already "included" bij Wordpress so it's already declared.
I had problems with a slider jquery library. And I solved it by putting the wp_enqueue_script in the header just before wp_head and the script itself just below wp_head.
I have no idea why but that was the only way i got it working
I had a problem getting a smooth scroll effect using jQuery to work, and eventually found a fix that worked:
jQuery.noConflict();
// Put all your code in your document ready area jQuery(document).ready(function($){ // Do jQuery stuff using $
$.localScroll(); $.localScroll.hash()
});
Whereas $.localScroll() and $.localScroll.hash() activate the scrolly effect everywhere on the page.
However I think .noConflict() can cause some conflicts with other libraries with $ object models, so be careful! If someone could enlighten me to why that is or if there's a better way than .noConflict(), let me know at http://twitter.com/WebDojo.
So in the end I used a plugin called HeadSpace to include my localScroll and scrollTo files, and a last file I named smooth-scroll-activate.js that included the code you see above.
