so @nrgini … let’s pretend this is a support question and that you didn’t just give me a lousy one-star review :-p
some questions:
* can you provide me with your URL so I can have a look at the problem?
* what JS optimization options are you using?
* what JS errors did you see on the browser console?
* what troubleshooting-steps (cfr. FAQ) did you already try?

@nrgini,
Exclude wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js and inline JavaScript and your slider will work (99.9374635251737464 % certain).
Be well,

The exclusion worked! Thanks so much!! Now how do I change my review? o.O

But I’m still getting bad feedback from Google page insights (see below). If I check anything under JavaScript Options besides “Optimize JavaScript Code?” the slider still quits.
Google says, “Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
Your page has 4 blocking script resources and 4 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.
Approximately 8% of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly in the HTML.
Remove render-blocking JavaScript:
http://firehousehostel.org/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js
http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/js/devicepx-jetpack.js
http://s.gravatar.com/js/gprofiles.js
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false
Optimize CSS Delivery of the following:
http://firehousehostel.org/…ize_1d2a0f8b33355ffe2402ebea5f4dedc5.css
http://fonts.googleapis.com/…00%2C600%2C700%2C800%26subset%3Dlatin%2C
http://s.gravatar.com/css/hovercard.css?ver=201639
http://s.gravatar.com/css/services.css?ver=201639
regarding the Google pagespeed insights remarks;
* jquery has to be excluded, else your slider doesn’t work
* devicepx-jetpack.js, gprofiles.js, maps/api/js, google fonts and gravatar are external to your site, so AO can’t optimize those
* for the autoptimize CSS-file; look into “inline all CSS” (easy) or “inline and defer” (better), more info in the FAQ
to change your rating; hover over your current rating, selecting the amount of stars you now deem appropriate 🙂
have a nice weekend!
