Javascript CCC

[Eickhardt]

Hello fellow prestausers

 

I'm tasked with enabling CCC/smart cache for CSS/JS on an existing 1.6.0.5 site that I did not build myself. CSS works, but Javascript is causing issues. Mainly "$ is not defined", but I also get a couple of other errors. Probably because of the many modules that are installed on the site (some of them are custom made).

 

I have two questions.

 

1. Can you provide any advice on how to debug this?
2. What is the proper way to add Javascript in a module so it doesn't break CCC? If I knew, I might be able to fix the modules that are breaking it.

 

I haven't been able to find any information regarding this, and I imagine others would like to know aswell.

 

Thanks in advance!

"$ is not defined" suggests that jquery has not been loaded.

 

I had some problems with self added javascript too - although not with jquery. The solution was to disable the option to move javascript to the bottom of the page.

tuk66: Thanks for the suggestions, I'm reading up on the options now! They look promising.

 

misucmaster: I can't find the option to disable the moving of javascript - are you sure that option exists in v.1.6.0.5?

Eickhardt, I don't know about PS 1.6.0.5. However, in PS 1.6.0.11 I have it under Advanced Parameters -> Performance. See also the attached image.
