Javascript and forum issues

[Webackpack]

Hi there,

First of this is my first time really using this forum. So thank you all for your time.

I will try to be brief about my problems:

I have recently launched a new site, and I have experienced difficulties with having my forum Simple:press working. The site is located at http://www.webackpack.dk and the forum theme im using is MyThemeShop’s Playbook theme.

First thing first – I have managed to find the javascript:void(null) mistake by removing the following coding from functions.php:

//replace jQuery with Google hosted version
wp_deregister_script(‘jquery’);
wp_register_script(‘jquery’, (“http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js”), false, ‘1.7.1’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’);

This made my forum to work. The forum is still saying “javascript:void(null) in the bottom of the page, but the forum is working.

Now to my next probem!

After I have removed that code is does affect some graphic elements on the side. My “Recent / Most popular” widget (Which is made into the theme) does not shop up correctly. Furthermore are my drop-down menus not showing up correctly.
You are able to see how the themes widgets and drop down menus normally looks like here: http://demo.mythemeshop.com/playbook/

Can anyone please help me with getting the graphic / widgets back as before, while STILL having the forum to work?

Thank you in advance
Kind regards
Lars

The problem seems to resolve around these codes:

wp_deregister_script(‘jquery’);
wp_register_script(‘jquery’, (“http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js”), false, ‘1.7.1’);

See Esmi’s comments in this thread: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/deregistering-jquery-breaks-password-protect-pages – regarding deregistering jQuery.

I have experienced difficulties with having my forum Simple:press working

What is this, a plugin?

Unfortunately, you’re using a theme that’s not supported here – these forums only support themes from here: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/

Perhaps you should consider a new theme if that one is not supported by the developers?

Andrew:

So if I remove the following code, I will no longer have password proctection on the site?
Simple:press is an amazing forum plugin, which you can only download from their own website. It is really elegant, and does the job better than any other forum plugin etc I have tried.

Wpyogi:
I knew that theme wasn’t supported. But I have spend so much time and effort into resolving this without luck, so I am kinda desperat at the moment.

I have considered chancing to a new theme, but this one really fits and suits the need of the site in general. So there is only the forum issue, otherwise im really pleased and set with the theme.
Furthermore Have i put quite and extensive amount of work into it as well.
