Concrete 5.7
Permalink
Hi folks!
I am definitely on the end...
I do not have any clue how I can fix my problem, hopefully someone of you has a solution.
I am not very familiar with C5 but trying to do as many projects with it as possible.
– First of all I wanted to include the Slicknav fromhttp://slicknav.com. Everything worked well in HTML but when I put it in C5 nothing worked any more. The mobile menu did not appear. There is also a problem with the slicknav.js (Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
– Second question is how can I install addons in 5.7?
Many thanks!
Simon

hi
many thanks for you quick answer!
i will have a look into it.
the js i have to include because it's from the navi, otherwise it won't work anyway.
strange is that it works in concrete 5.6.3.1. :(
i'm wondering if it would make more sense to install the old version (5.6.3.1) until 5.7 is more evolved? what so you think?
many thanks again!!

The js file is fine, but linking to the jQuery library in the file can cause problems.

I don't think it is a bad idea to stay with 5.6 for now. It will be supported for at least another year, has a full marketplace, and has tons of documentation.
5.7 is very good and will only get better with time as people kick the tires. Early adoption isn't suited for everyone.

I recommend looking over these videos and articles.

You might be having issues with the path of the files. Using <?php echo $view->getThemePath()?> will inject the proper file path for you.
Also, concrete5 includes jQuery in your site, so you don't need to link to it in your files. If you do include it, it can cause errors.
The 5.7 marketplace is going to be up and running very soon. Until then, you have to install 5.7 ready add-ons manually. Add-ons built for 5.6 will need to be updated to work for 5.7, so there won't be many items in the new marketplace initially.
