problem with my theme and the new wordpress

[5pidercat]

Hello,

I'm using Litespeed on my website since it's supported and highly suggested by my hosting service (http://vhosting-it.com) but with the new wordpress update I encountered a problem basically updating to the last version all my galleries effects and more (even the drop down menu) stopped working

I'm not a technician so it's quite difficult for me understanding what the problem exactly is.
The theme support (uncode) said that the problem is something in litespeed.

I report below what they said:


Hello Jerry,
I updated to WP 5.3.2 again and excluded from LiteSpeed concat. the file https://jerrymagni.com/wp-includes/js/mediaelement/mediaelement-and-player.min.js

Everything seems to work fine now, so the problem is definitely with the changes that WordPress did to that file. Since it isn't a file provided by Uncode, but by Wordpress and Uncode uses it to display videos only, I can just recommend to:

• contact LiteSpeed support and ask help for that
• dequeue wp-mediaelement and avoid to use videos

I don't have other alternatives. Maybe the problem is more complex and involves other plugins that create issues to the file I mentioned above, but at the moment the most suspect is that and this workaround fixes the issue.

Let me know, best

I don't know how and if this can help you understanding what the problem is
I hope so and that the problem can be fixed as soon as possible.

thanks.

Hi,

Site loads fine now to me. May I know if it's due to you exclude the mediaelement-and-player.min.js file from being optimized or you downgrade wordpress to previous version?

Best,
Eric

Hi Eric,

Yes, the support tema has excluded mediaelement-and-player.min.js file from being optimized
but they say I should avoid using videos but I used them and I surely don't want to renounce to them.

Best.

Jerry
