I disabled that, cleared caches, etc… then re-enabled it. I thought maybe it helped, but no, a day later I had another few dozen errors.
It has not solved it for us, no. Started seeing errors in early December 2019… we see them daily but not sure what triggers them. I just cleared our logs and loaded our homepage with a video background in a color section, then loaded a page with a vimeo embed… no errors. That said, I also am now using a CDN for content, so it may not have tripped that on the local server.
I just noticed we have this same issue… why is the “global $posts;” not standard in the theme as a fix for this? If I have to manually change this with every update overwriting it, that’s weird… Do a search for “helper-assets.php” and you see this issue comes up a lot on the forums.
I fixed mine. See my above thread. You may be calling a jquery library somewhere in a custom area too…
I FIXED IT!!!! I imported my parent theme settings into my child theme on my dev site and rebuilt all the options to match my main site until I found the difference that broke it.
We had been calling a google jquery.min.js file in our google services area to run a custom countdown clock. The new version of the theme must call this on it’s own because with it removed, our clock still works now on 4.5 and it’s not being double called and breaking the maps.
<script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>This also fixed our signature issue.
I built a new dev site…. installed 4.5 and a map. It worked fine. I then put on the child theme you supplied and maps don’t work. Hopefully you can recreate this and fix it:
Same issue here… maps are fine in 4.2.6, white in 4.5. I have a thread where I’m not getting support. I’ve created a temp admin login per their request and no one has replied. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/map-not-showing-in-enfold-4-5-i-have-api-key/ The 4.5 update definitely broke this. I built a dev site with all plugins disabled and only the 4.5 theme and a child theme installed and it didn’t work.
I removed ALL plugins, ALL custom CSS, ALL custom functions.php entries… leaving only a vanilla 4.5 theme and the child theme downloaded from the above link. When I activate the default 4.5 theme, maps work. When I use the child theme provided by Kriesi, they don’t.
I reverted to 4.2.6 and everything works fine. Back to 4.5 and it’s broken. Here is a page with a map on the left and a signature form on the right. Neither version allows me to draw the signature, so that’s a different issue (sigPad.signaturePad is not a function)… but the maps definitely work in 4.2.6 and not 4.5.
4.2.6
4.5
I’m also seeing some broken abilities with a signature plugin and I was told by the forms plugin support staff:
“The problem is that the theme is changing the way jQuery is loaded on your site, but adding it much later than other scripts that require it.”So what was changed that would cause that? I’ve disabled all plugins and the problem persists. I wonder if this is related?
Yes, but that’s commented out unless you activate it. I think that’s the way the theme works normally.
I’ve dug into the CSS but I’m not seeing anything hiding it… but I may be missing something. And the API restrictions are right. It tests fine even in the backend.
No, I didn’t choose only open in new window… If I do pick that, I do get the button to open the map in a new window and it does load… and if I pick “click to show map” it does show the button that says to click here to see the map, clicking it does nothing. And if I go back to immediately show map, nothing shows up.
I did check my billing and updated to a new card. Nothing working there yet. I confirmed this project is associated with this billing account too.
Even on this page that has nothing on it but a map with a single point: https://cedarcreek.tv/test/ Nothing… API key tests fine. Billing is set up. What is wrong???
Nvm… fixed it. Apparently you can’t have relative links for self hosted videos. If you use /wp-content/…. as the path, it breaks the player. If you use full URL path like https://site.com/wp-content…. then it works. I guess that’s a bug.
Ok I found the fix… I had to add this to my child theme functions.php file. I don’t know why…
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_register_javascript', 100); function my_register_javascript() { wp_register_script('mediaelement', plugins_url('wp-mediaelement.min.js', __FILE__), array('jquery'), '4.8.2', true); wp_enqueue_script('mediaelement'); }I found it via this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47346965/wordpress-media-library-not-working-mediaelementplayer-is-not-a-function
Now background videos play again.
Hi Victoria. This is not the issue. In fact, I was one of the first (if not the first) to suggest the fix for the width issue when 4.2 was released. This isn’t a display/width issue with the videos… this is an auto-play issue. If you visit this page for example: https://cedarcreek.tv/experience/ You will see there is a video as the top background. Seeing it in Firefox actually has a giant play button (Chrome hides this) that can’t be clicked, and the video doesn’t play on either browser.
What happened with local MP4 color section background videos and wordpress 4.9???
Reverted to Enfold 4.1.2 and the problems persist… so it is definitely a WP 4.9 issue with the new media stuff, but it affects 4.1.2. and 4.2. How do we fix this???
Ironically I see the video playing fine in the new page editor of WP 4.9… but the site itself is broken.
Seeing the same issue with local MP4 background video in Color Section… video first frame appears, but is still and there is a play button in the middle (on FF, not on Chrome) but you can’t click it and the video doesn’t play.
Guenni007, I’m not seeing the issue (or I don’t understand what you are saying the problem is) that you see on Safari. Without the changes you made, I see the video playback fine, I see the arrow down if it is enabled on the color section as well.
Are you putting it in the right place? Did you leave it in place?
I looked at your demo page… the code is the same so it should work. If I use the dev tools on my browser to change that value on that page, it fixes the issue… Do the change then try clearing your browser cache and reloading the page?
Are you seeing this issue? https://kriesi.at/support/topic/video-background-broken-in-enfold-4-2/
Not sure on the animated gif mobile background thing… it appears to work on all but one of my pages, so it may be a file issue on my end. I think the above mejs-container css is the only fix needed at this time.
Adding this to my style’s quick CSS section at the bottom of the General Styling tab of the theme options fixed the videos for me… but I’m thinking the animated gif replacements we use on mobile sites aren’t working still/now… still investigating…
.mejs-container { width: 100% !important; }
