 * I am trying to use the Jetpack Slideshow but it keeps saying: This slideshow 
   requires JavaScript.
 * I have already spent the last hour reading through the posts in this forum and
   also tried some things out (like the the wp_head and wp_footer functions) but
   it just will not work.. any help would be very welcome!
