Latest version of wet-boew breaks flex/slick sliders.

Problem/Motivation

After upgrading to the latest version of WxT (4.3.0 from 4.2.2) I see we have moved from wet-boew 4.0.43.1 to 4.0.50.1. This change breaks both flexslider and slick slider.

Leaving WxT at 4.3.0 and simply swapping in the older wet-boew lib does fix the issue.

Not sure how to locally patch a composer.json file.. don't think possible.

    Things seemed to have improved with wet-boew.js version 4.0.74 included with WxT 5.2.2

    I recommend upgrading and testing the latest wet-boew.js

    A related issue I marked as fixed, it's working now with 4.0.74

    Here's a script that quickly allows you to test the latest wet-boew.js

    Alternatively, upgrade from wxt 4.x/5.x to 5.2.2+

    #!/bin/bash
    
    if [ -d "html/libraries" ]; then
      echo "Begin upgrade of wet-boew from 4.0.43 to 4.0.74."
      pushd html/libraries;
      rm tmp -rf;
      mkdir tmp;
      pushd tmp;
      wget https://github.com/wet-boew/wet-boew/releases/download/v4.0.74/wet-boew-dist-4.0.74.zip
      unzip wet-boew-dist-4.0.74.zip
      mv ../wet-boew wet-boew_orig
      mv wet-boew-dist-4.0.74/wet-boew ../
      popd
      rm ../libraries/tmp -r;
      popd;
      echo "End of upgrade for wet-boew 4.0.74."
    fi

    needs review, but I think this is fixed by 4.0.74 as mentioned above, see comment #15

    I am upgrading the same site from comment #9, from WxT 4.5.3 to 5.4.0. I had the following workaround in place to fix the wet-boew slick slider JS issue:

    "wet-boew/wet-boew": "4.0.43.1 as 4.0.50.1"

    I can confirm now that I've upgraded to 5.4.0 (wet-boew 4.0.75) the issues I was seeing with the slick sliders is no longer occurring. I also tested a dataTable and no errors as well.

  • Automatically closed - issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

Production build 0.71.5 2024
