Hello Paul Trouw

Thanks for reaching out to us. There might be some dependencies with the JQuery version. So, I do not recommend you to delete it. If you want, you can test deleting it on your local environment. But please do not delete it on your production sites yet. I have forwarded the request to update the JQuery version to the development team.

Best regards

For now I have renamed it. Everyting still seems to work. BTW I am using J4. And Lighthouse is flaging jQuery v1.12.4 with 4 security risks. I will wait your answer from the development team.

It is already in Dev's table. Hopefully, they will update it in the next version. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi!

I faced the same problem in joomla 4. JQuery 1.12.4 is very obsolete and you should delete it asap, especially since Joomla core loads the 3.6.0 version of the script!

I was forced to strip it with jQuery Easy. At least you could add the ability for the user to disable it.

Wasn't it enough for you that you're bloating the html with tons of useless code, you thought that you should be loading JQuery library twice?

You guys are moving extremely slow and losing clients, with me being one of them. I'm already moving my projects to your competitors.

Hi, has this been fixed already?

I will ask our developer right now,

but remember that file also exist in joomla 3.10 core (!)

Our developer promised to take a look at this, probably this file is not used anymore.

but I am not sure if during component update Joomla can delete not used file, so I have concern only about it.

Our developer promised to take a look at this

It is already in Dev's table

Blah blah blah

probably this file is not even used anymore

I'm afraid you don't know much about your porduct. The file is heavily used by the extension. I can name some SP Page Builder addons that make use of JQuery 1.12.4, like open street map, accordion etc

@Vassilis

Why you have to be so rude here? Do you answer in this same way to your clients? I doubt.

Don't forget that Joomla have its own JQuery file in Joomla 3 and Joomla 4, so we don't have to load that file from component folder, but from joomla core in case of. I am nor developer , but I know that it can be solved somehow in a good way. Temporary, a file replacement can be a solution. For countdown, popup etc there are separate .js files.

@Paul Frankowski

This thread is open for more than a month, and you keep saying that your developers will take a look.

You're calling me rude, but in fact, you're rude and fooling your clients.

You are selling an extension based on an outdated and vulnerable jQuery version, and you guys have no plan of moving forward.

As you said, Joomla has its own jQuery file but most of your add-ons are based on jQuery 1.12.4, and they are loading component's file whenever they are used.

What do you mean by file replacement? Delete or rename your file? This is not a solution for me. As I said, many add-ons are based on jQuery 1.12.4 and if it's not loaded they don't work. Your developers have to recode all those add-ons as well as the whole code the component produces, which is bloating the HTML with useless code.

As I already said, after many years of using SP Page Builder Pro, your behavior and unwillingness of moving forward are pushing me away and sending me to your competitors. FYI, from now on, all my new projects are based on another page builder and not on yours.

Your rude client.

SP Page Builder v3.8.3 Changelog:

Update: Dropped old jQuery file

Realy nice!

But many add-ons are not working now hahaha

Whatever...

Sorry for being rude!

Let me check on my end. You're not rude, not at all, but please deliver more details. Yesterday we made some tests.

My addons tests (today, extra ones, on J3.10, Helix) without old jQuery file:

1. Accordion addon - still works,
2. Slideshow - OK
3. Progress bar - OK
4. Testimonial Carousel - OK
5. Open Street Map (Voyager Map) - OK
6. Team Carousel - OK
7. Modal Popup - ok

I don't see any not working addon.

Wikimedia map, it doesn't work for a long time, so please do not consider it.

A few I've checked are:

• open street map
• accordion
• image lightbox

They are not working on J4.05

On Joomla 3.10 are OK. but Yes I will test on Joomla 4 as well. thx

Your devs should have checked before releasing the update

Joomla 4.0.5 still OK, Accordion addon (two styles) and OSM (Voyager)

Image addon - Open in Lightbox - still works.

Sorry, but I cannot emulate your issues.

maybe use 2nd website, with clean Joomla and SPPB only.

It's not working on my end. You can check the english section of the site I've sent you.

On the other 2 languages I'm loading jQuery manually through the template.

Can you check on Cassiopea template, on your side?

If wil not work as well, let me know. Otherwisewe you have to load jquery from Joomla 4.x core:

media\vendor\jquery\js\jquery.min.js

It's safest method.

It is probably a conflict with astroid framework. It works on Cassiopeia

In that case all is clear. Load jquery from Joomla 4.0.x core if this may help.

Joomla's Jquery is loaded by default but SP page builder's add-ons still need jQuery 1.12.4 in order to work.

I'm getting the following error in console

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'fn' of undefined
    at sppagebuilder.js?4c712525bbbcd041da9d1cec623f871f:7
    at sppagebuilder.js?4c712525bbbcd041da9d1cec623f871f:7

Uncaught TypeError: jQuery is not a function

    at leaflet.provider.js:1
    at dispatch (jquery.min.js?3.6.0:2)
    at v.handle (jquery.min.js?3.6.0:2)

but when I switch to Cassiopeia everything works fine with no console errors

Right now I'm checking the astroid's scripts for any conflict with SP page builder

*Update:

No conflict with Astroid.
