An error in Jetpack

Hi @agencesymphony!

I’m Gabor, one of the developers of Smart Slider. As I see you are using our plugin and the latest version of Jetpack is no longer compatible with our “JetPack Photon image optimizer” option:
https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1801-slider-settings-optimize
and that creates this error message. We will deprecate this option in the next Smart Slider version, because it created different issues too. For now, you should just turn that “JetPack Photon image optimizer” option off at your sliders, and that will solve the problem.

Alternatively, you can edit this file:
wp-content\plugins\smart-slider-3\Nextend\SmartSlider3\Slider\Slider.php

Around line 395. you can find this code:

if (!$this->params->get('optimize-jetpack-photon', 0)) {
   AssetManager::$image->add($this->images);
}

Remove the “if” statement around the inner code:

AssetManager::$image->add($this->images);

and this way you won’t have to turn this option off at all your sliders.
