| Jun 17, 2020 at 13:01 | comment | added | Rup | You're right, I'm not sure how the version numbers are tracked in Subversion. I was looking at trunk which says 2.0.5: plugins.svn.wordpress.org/… You can just download files from there if you don't have an svn client installed. I don't know about editing files through WordPress sorry, I would normally SSH into the machine if I could, else probably SFTP yes. | |
| Jun 17, 2020 at 12:17 | comment | added | user152362 | Tom, when you say go through the theme & plugins for hardcoded URLs, does that mean scan through the code & see if I can spot any random HTTP links & update them to HTTPS manually? I tried this with the soft failures re links to social media icons in footer document but got an error message within Wordpress: 'Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as using SFTP.' Is only way to update these URLs editing the file locally & uploading the new version via Filezilla? Steph | |
| Jun 17, 2020 at 12:14 | comment | added | user152362 | Thank you both. Must admit I'm more of frontend designer with knowledge of HTML and CSS and jQuery is somewhat beyond me! I think in the log run it is going to be better to switch to a more up to date slideshow plugin. I would like to try and make a temporary fix if I can. Rup, I did a search for the version you mention in Subversion but couldn't find it - are you able to send a link to it please? I can see that I can edit the plugin code - you said there are two $( which I need to change to jQuery( - are they on particular lines of the code in the file jQuery.cross-slide.js? Many thanks | |

It looks like the stray jQuery is from the cross-slider plugin, yes, and it won't work with WordPress's included jQuery because it's trying to use $() not jQuery(). The plugin changelog says it should be fixed in version 1.6 - can you get hold of a later version? There's a version 2.0.5 in Subversion if you can get it from there. Alternatively you can probably just edit the http:// to https:// in the plugin, or change the two $( to jQuery( and it should work again.

You tried to change everything in the database but didn't change any of the files. Also, using the jQuery from the CDN isn't great and it's using an insecure URL, don't deregister/re-register jQuery | |
