Wibiya Toolbar Application Fail to Load Problem

I just recently installed Wibiya toolbar on my personal blog, and faced with few problems where few of the applications from the toolbar did not load properly: RSS feed, Facebook Community, and Twitter application.

With little bit of research, I finally solved the problem.

This is actually simple problem. What actually happened is that the jQuery installed on my blog is causing the error. To fix this, just add this code somewhere after the BODY tag:

<script src=’http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js’ type=’text/javascript’></script>

You can put this piece of code anywhere between the body content. For me, since I’m using WordPress Arclite theme, I just added the code to the footer using Arclite plugin setup.

Wibiya team member just got back to me this morning and suggested me several solutions. This particular solution works the best for me, because it solves the jQuery conflict between Wibiya toolbar and Lightbox plugin, and it is specific to the WordPress theme that I’m using. Here’s the solution.

Apparently it has something to do with the WordPress themes that I’m using, which is Arclite. It’s jQuery javascript mess up the Wibiya Toolbar and Lightbox plugin. The solution here is to edit Arclite Javascript, that can be found at yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/arclite/js/arclite.js.

Find this line: // fixes for IE-7 cleartype bug on fade in/out, and delete (or comment out) these three sections:

arclite-javascript

It should solve your problem, if you were having the same Wibiya toolbar problem like I had. Let me know if it works for you or not.

  1. Apparently, my problem is not completely over. I have another problem now. Wibiya toolbar works just fine, but my WP Lightbox 2 plugin is not working now. I'm not sure how to solve this. I have already submitted problem ticket to Wibiya forum, so hopefully they will respond my question soon. 🙁

  2. One way to by pass this problem is by using WP Nextgen Gallery plugin. Instead of using the native picture uploader from WordPress, you need to upload your images to NextGen Gallery and attach your pictures using NextGen Gallery. Using this way, you will still enjoy the elegant lightbox effect when you click your image, because I think NextGen Gallery uses different jQuery that is not interfering with Wibiya's jQuery.

    1. You can add the code anywhere after the <BODY> tag. My suggestion is to add the code at the end of your theme's index.php. I have never used mystique theme, but it's usually located at wp-content/themes/[your theme].

  5. Have you tried to put the code in your index.php of your theme? Put it after the <BODY> tag. @Eonhari seems to have his code work by doing this.

  8. Hmm….it must mean that both jQuery conflict with each other, so you can only use one or the other.
