i’m not sure, but it seems that any script written to the sidebar by a plugin using “echo” statements does not get written to the sidebar.
why would that be?
note, these plugins work fine with other themes, so it’s definitely the theme causing the problem.
raw script hand-written to the sidebar works, no problem
You’re not calling wp_head from your header.
Now – since you’re doing a commercial education site – it feels appropriate to ask you for a book for my time.
that’s it! thanks much!
incredibly, i actually found this in the wp theme docs, but i didn’t know quite what to do with it.
i would like to get you a book, but i’m a struggling startup (translation, ‘broke’).
fortunately, the plugin developer gave me the solution as well, and he also provide the exact script i need, and step-by-step instructions.

thanks again.
this theme was missing wp_head from between the HEAD tags.
Adding <?php wp_head(); ?> before the <body> tag in the theme and plugins work correctly.
here’s the technical explanation:
