Uncaught ReferenceError: d3 is not defined in WordPress Visual Composer - javascript

I want to edit some images which can only be done in WPBakery Page Builder. So, when I try to edit the page with it, the frontend editor (page builder) doesn't loads. Console shows the following error:
Although, the library script tag is added before the tag which is using this library:
I don't know if any of this makes sense, but, yeah, I have tried these solutions because they were mentioned on different forums:
Adding charset="utf-8" to external script tag.
Moving the script tag inside Raw HTML element.
Using $(document).ready(function(){}) to enclose the whole of second
script. So, that it loads after everything is loaded.
Unfortunately, none of these worked for me.
The page builder works fine on pages where I don't use the d3.js library. And, the visualization works fine WHEN NOT IN PAGE BUILDER - the library loads up and the visualization is displayed. You can check it out here:

Also, please note that I don't have access to any of the theme files. So, I can't make any changes to functions.php or any other file.

Your question is related to the WPBakery, not Visual Composer plugin. You need to have the latest version 5.7 in order to fix this issue. More information, contact support.wpbakery.com if you have a valid license.

Tag Editor- $(...).jsonTagEditor is not a function

I just tried to implement the json tag editor to create a tag editor.
I want to implement it in a bigger laravel project. Therefore I included jQuery, as well as the js and css file from the json tag editor. It's all loading fine, which I figured out under the network tab.
Now I have:
an input element:
<input id="keywords" class="form-control" name="keywords"
autofocus></div>
and on top of the page I have:
$().ready(function(){
$('#keywords').jsonTagEditor();
});
But i get an error saying
Uncaught TypeError: $(...).jsonTagEditor is not a function...
As I said, the files are loaded as I can see in the network tab...
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Again to make everything clear, I'm using laravel, so the files are all included in the master-layout file and I'm trying to use it in a document that extends this master template. But shouldn't change anything as I'm already using some other plugins that work fine that way.
Any ideas?
After some discussion in chat, the problem turns out to be the suspected re-import and re-initialization of jQuery. The Laravel framework has it's own import of jQuery that happens via require(), and that was the happening after the plugin in question was imported.
Moving the plugin import to the end of the <body> worked around that, but in addition the plugin (as of this writing) has a bug and must be initialized with an empty object passed in (or probably any other value):
$("#keywords").jsonTagEditor({});
You are missing document and just to be certain that the element is accessible, place your script before the ending '</body>' tag so that it loads your page content first.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#keywords').jsonTagEditor();
});
You forgot to write document
Instead of this
$().ready(function(){});
Use this
$(document).ready( () => {});
The => means, that you use newest standarts of JS
Or you can just use this alternative jQuery tagEditor

Bootstrap accordion: Expand / Collapse all not working

I found that solution, to expand all accordion sections:
http://www.bootply.com/peFUdnwOpZ
I copied the code in Joomla.
Via Gantry I loaded Javascript file. I tried even, to load the javascript within the article.
But It is not working. Can Anybody help?
Background information:
I had to add bootstrap min.js, otherwise, the function "accordion" was not working properly. Template is working with Bootstrap 3.3.6.
I tried even to add the exact same files, loaded in http://www.bootply.com/peFUdnwOpZ.
//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js
//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.1.1/js/bootstrap.min.js
//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.1.1/css/bootstrap.min.css
Next Try. I loaded script via Joomla plugin. I loaded the script in header and body, before and after head/body tag.
Nothing worked.
I traced it down: On another template, I worked with, I figured out, that the order of loading the 3 javascripts is very important. So, loading manually before end of header is much important! first jquery.min.js than bootstrap.min.js and than custom javascript (see in the example link) worked. But on my own site, it seems, there are some errors in loading jquery and bootstrap javascript properly. Because console says:
null is not an object (evaluating '$('.closeall').click')
So, it misses the link to the other javascript files. Maybe some can help?
I believe you may have forgot to add the following piece of code in your custom js file -
$('.closeall').click(function(){
$('.panel-collapse.in')
.collapse('hide');
});
$('.openall').click(function(){
$('.panel-collapse:not(".in")')
.collapse('show');
});
Hope this may work for you :-)

Activating wordpress plugins breaks jquery effects

I'm currently working on converting an HTML5 template called Rekreato into a wordpress theme. I've managed to set up a bare-bones theme, but whenever I activate any plugins with jQuery scripts, a few of my jQuery effects are broken. Specifically, in Firefox debugger I get --
TypeError: jQuery.easing[jQuery.easing.def] is not a function #
jquery.easing.1.3.js:46
Here is the page in question. You can see about halfway down there is an image slider that is not functional. I have left one plugin active, called WP eMember.
I've tried a number of things like configuring my theme as a child theme, wrapping jquery.easing.1.3 in a document ready function, and moving the script call around in the code, but to no avail. I'm not even sure that the easing script is at fault. The answer is probably staring me in the face, but I can't seem to figure it out. Many thanks in advance.
EDIT: Excellent suggestion from markratledge. I put the scripts in functions.php with wp_register_script() and wp_enqueue_script(). At first I was very confused that even more things were broken. Reading further, I saw that since Wordpress uses a noConflict wrapper around its built-in jQuery library, the $ shortcut is unavailable. So, I went through all of my scripts that were showing errors in the inspector and swapped '$' with 'jQuery'. Voila! Everything jives. Thanks again!
Check out Function Reference/wp enqueue script « WordPress Codex on how to load JS in WordPress themes and avoid jQuery errors, with examples shown.
You're loading a bunch of jQuery by direct link, but then wp_head comes in and loads more jQuery for the plugins, and collisions occur. I.e., the two different main jQuery libraries; check in the Firefox console to get a list of all the JS that is loading.
From that doc:
wp_enqueue_script links a script file to the generated page at the right time according
to the script dependencies, if the script has not been already
included and if all the dependencies have been registered. You could
either link a script with a handle previously registered using the
wp_register_script() function, or provide this function with all the
parameters necessary to link a script.
This is the recommended method of linking JavaScript to a WordPress
generated page.

3rd Party Script Breaking my JS

I have a 3rd party script that displays some data on my site. When the script loads it breaks all of the JS on any page the script is in. I remove the script and my page works without issue.
Are there ways to prevent 3rd party scripts from interacting with my page in a way the breaks the page?
Notes:
I have no access to the 3rd party script to edit.
I am using jQuery for the scripts that are breaking. I have in place jQuery.noConflict yet it still breaks the page.
I have attempted to load the script in an iframe to see if that made a difference. It did not.
The script does write data to the page, mainly CSS and HTML
Note: The below code may contain references/links to drug content, mainly marijuana.
I am building a site for a medical marijuana dispensary. I am importing the menu of the dispensary from a site called WeedMaps. Their embed code looks like this:
<script type="text/javascript">var wmenu_id = 1111;</script> //The number correlates to the menu I need to pull, I have changed it in this question
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://legalmarijuanadispensary.com/components/com_weedmenu/weedmenu-widget.js"></script>
When I use the above code the JS of my site breaks. How to I prevent my code from breaking when using 3rd party scripts over which I have no control.
UPDATE
Here is a JS Fiddle. The menu opens but doesn't close properly. Remove the script that is generating the menu from weedmaps and the menu works correctly. (The weedmaps menu script is in the bottom of the HTML panel.)
Hmm, not having much luck. I'll add what I have, since it may trigger further ideas from you. However, in short, I think their script isn't written particularly well, and that they really do need to fix it on their end.
As it stands, Firefox shows this error when animating the menus:
TypeError: jQuery.easing[jQuery.easing.def] is not a function
This blog suggests that this occurs when the Easing plugin is loaded before jQuery. Fine, I thought - we just need to load the WeedMenu script after our jQuery has loaded. So I tried the following (with help from here):
$j.getScript('http://legalmarijuanadispensary.com/components/com_weedmenu/weedmenu-widget.js');
That gave me this error:
A call to document.write() from an asynchronously-loaded external script was ignored.
Turns out that occurs as a result of the WM script using document.write, which is desperately out of date. So that lead me on to find crapLoader, which is meant to handle this sort of thing:
crapLoader.loadScript("http://legalmarijuanadispensary.com/components/com_weedmenu/weedmenu-widget.js", "menu-script");
Unfortunately that brings me back to the original Easing error.
Here's my fork - let me know if you find anything!
The script is not well written, I was able to solve my issue by removing a line of code from the script. The link I provided list to a longer script. The script had this line of code:
try {
b("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"), "function" != typeof wmenu_strains_callback && b("http://legalmarijuanadispensary.com/components/com_weedmenu/weedmenu.js", !0)
}
if I remove b("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"), then the script works and my page works. What was happening was the script was inserting jQuery into the bottom of my head and breaking the rest of my javascript.

JS is not loading correctly, where is the fault?

I have a website where I want to use MagicZoom.
Everything would be fine since it is easy to implement, but there seems to be an error when loading the js file.
I will send you the website which is currently under construction.
MagicZoom should be implemented there, where you chose your fabric, for a close-up.
I think, but of course this is only my opinion and I'm not an expert, that the problem occurs because the div container with the picture is created dynamically from another PHP file and not present onload. Therefore the JavaScript does not work properly.
You will see that in the second step the zoom does not load although the class is set correctly.
Your error says "prettyPhoto is not a function". This tells me that some script is trying to use the "prettyPhoto" object before that script has been included on the page.
Looking at your HTML header, I see that is among the last of the <script> tags. Try moving the <script> tag where you include that library in your HTML header up a couple of lines, above some of the other includes. Be aware - you can't move it above the includes for jQuery!
Try that out, let us know.
