Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
Can anybody explain to me how to publish my calendar in wordpress 3.3?

At the moment I have got the calendar appearing in a page which is fine, apart from you cant click on the arrow to see the other months. On hovering over the arrows, I can that it is displaying "javascript:void (lcLoad("M0","03/01/12","441643","441643"))">

I've read that localendar uses a lower version of javascript, but can someone please tell me how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
Actually, I think we're using jQUery 1.7, which is fairly recent.
Some Wordpress themes might use a lower version, or "knock out" some of our JS, which could be a problem too.

Mind posting a link to you page?

I should also mention that (once again) we are considering a a Wordpress plugin for localendar in light of recent interest.

Thanks for the reply.

Here's the link to the page to view the arrows to the months that dont work - http://www.fmfrota.com/annual-leave-calendar

If you could take a look please, and see what you think is at fault, that would be fantastic, thanks!

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
My quick look at the source on your page shows the theme (boldy?) you are using is using a very old version of jQuery: 1.3.8

We have only tested down to 1.4.1 (current version is 1.8). Our plugin is only targetting 1.4.1 and above too.

And it looks like there are a few other widgets on the page that are failing b/c of the older version.

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
Thanks for your reply support.

Can you tell me how I upgrade the jquery from 1.3.8 to 1.8.0.?

Can you tell me of any wordpress themes that support localendar, as I've tried it on another wordpress theme with 1.7 on it, and it didn't work on that one either.

Is the plugin for wordpress any closer to fruition this year?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
We expect to release the plugin for beta testing near the end of this month (possibly the first week in March)

It will have similar jQuery requirements though.

Inside Wordpress, you can edit the source html behind a theme. If you edit the file that pulls down the older jQuery version, you can edit it to pull down a newer version. In Wordpress, click Editor under Appearance to get to these pages. But you shouldn't change anything unless you know what you are doing, or you could really mess up the theme.

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
I've updated the jquery to 1.7.1, and it still doesn't work with the same error of javascript.void...etc

I've only got 2 plugins running, akismet, and a 'coming soon' plugin.

Is the reason something to do with the way the page is split into 2 columns in the theme?

Any answer would be fantastic to resolve this issue please.

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
When your calendar page loads, before localendar does anything I see an error thrown for this:

// PRETTY PHOTO INIT
$("a[rel^='prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto();

Error: $("a[rel^='prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto is not a function
Source File: http://www.fmfrota.com/wp-content/themes/boldy/js/custom.js
Line: 13

Can you comment out that line (or put a try/catch around it) so I can make sure it isn't preventing other script from firing?

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
I have removed the line altogether, and I see no improvement with the localendar.

// PRETTY PHOTO INIT
$("a[rel^='prettyPhoto']").prettyPhoto();

Any more suggetions?

Re: Wordpress javascript problem with publishing
The only way that I got this to function with wordpress 3.3 was with an iframe plugin. Follow the instructions of the plugin as the iframe code they give you here will not work.

This is what it looks like:
