[Support request] jquery not working for me?

[Melissa]

I use justified image grid to display posts and galleries and I’m trying to use jquery to make the captions below the images clickable.

They said to use this jquery:
jQuery(‘.jig-imageContainer’).on(‘click’,’.jig-caption-wrapper’,function(){ location = jQuery(this).prev().find(‘a’).attr(“href”); });

which I put in a <script> tag in an element that loads in wp_footer.

I’m not seeing any effect.

Do you have any advice?

Hi there,

Have you checked with their support or make sure the code works in a default twenty series themes?

GeneratePress itself can’t really interfere with the code.

[Melissa]

Yeah, unfortunately their support just said that it was tested and should work.

Just wondered if you had advice. I’ll keep trying.

[Leo]

Do they have specific instructions on where to add it?

[Melissa]

No. I thought the footer was the right place?

[Leo]

It should be.

Does it work if you use a default WP theme?

[Melissa]

I’m not sure. Generatepress elements won’t keep working if I change themes, right?

[Leo]

Yup you’d have to add it using function.

wp_footer is a WordPress hook though it should be the same in the default theme.

[Melissa]

I’ll try to do that tomorrow.
Thanks!

[Leo]

Sounds good.

Hopefully you’ve sorted this 🙂
