BigPicture Theme Slider Broken

mikepritchard23

Hi guys,
We are using this theme: https://www.shape5.com/wordpress/themes/big_picture-august_2014_wordpress_club_theme.html

We assume a recent WP upgrade broke the slider on our site. On the backend it appears the Shape 5 plugins aren't working correctly. Php is v 7.3
WP is up to date.

Can you check to see if you can fix the slider?

Am also wondering if that theme is still secure with no updates since 2018? We are using:
Shape5 BigPicture New Version: 2.0.1

Thanks much,
Mike

Hi mikepritchard23,
Yes, some templates have conflict with the jQuery of WP 5.7+.
I have helped you resolve this issue. I have added the following code to the
wp-content/themes/s5theme/vertex/cms_core_functions.php file (under line: 54)

if (!is_admin()) add_action("wp_enqueue_scripts", "my_jquery_enqueue", 11);
function my_jquery_enqueue() {
   wp_deregister_script('jquery');
   wp_register_script('jquery', get_template_directory_uri()."/js/jquery/jquery.min.js", false, null);
   wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

We will discuss with the technical team the updated plan for the themes.
