Jump to page + custom theme

Hi,

I just did an upgrade from 5.3.1 to 5.5. I’m using a custom theme.

There seems to be a new functionality that allows users to jump to a specific page (by entering its number) when they click the little icon (sp_Jump.png) on the very right:

 

When I click the icon it looks like this:

Entering a number and clicking “Go” doesn’t do anything.

I already copied over the sp_Jump.png to my custom theme images folder.

What else do need to change/copy to make this work as intended?

 

Thanks!

The changes that were recommended to be made to custom themes were published at the time. They can be found in this Codex article – http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/installation/changes/theme-and-templates-5-4-0-to-5-4-2/ – which now contains all of the theme changes that were discussed from 5.4.0 to 5.4.2. (5.5.0 is here for reference: http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/installation/changes/theme-and-templates-5-5-0/).

But not working is a different matter to one of styling.

First up – do refresh your browser cache for the site to ensure that scripts get updated. Some browsers do tend to hang on to scripts in cache longer than they really should. If still not working after that we will need to look at the error console to try and work out why. Will need a link to a page with the control on it…

I think I updated the style files accordingly. (codex information)

Problem is still there.

I’m not sure how to go about this “error console” and what to look for… so I sent you login data for my website by PM. It’s probably faster when you take a quick look… ;)

Thanks!

Well… good news and bad news!

The good news is that I see no errors or script conflicts which is great.

The bad news is that the good news means I am a bit stumped! It is such a simple thing too. So  we need to have a discussion here in this.

So – Steve (Mr Papa): Any ideas on why this might be? It always loads page 1.

Hmm…

For the time being, how do I remove this icon from the website?

As it’s not working presently and my users were happy without it in the past, that would be an acceptable solution, too. :)

Thanks!

Of course – as a temporary measure yiu could add this to your CSS file. Any CSS file actually – SP or WP theme…

#jump-1, #jump-2 {
    display: none;
}

which will hide the controls.

Would still be best to actually try and diagnose and sort the problem of course.

Thanks for the tip about how to remove the icon.

However, I will keep the icon on for now to give Mr Papa a chance to have a look at the problem. ;)
