[Resolved] Error during the ajax request, make sure the data you send are in j

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user had some repeated image fields and wanted to create a slider using these images.

Solution:

I managed to create a flexslider plugin that should be able to help your.

Download and install the plugin in the link below.

Then create a content template for your post and add the following.

<div class="flexslider">
  <ul class="slides">
   [wpv-for-each field="wpcf-image_1"]
  <li>[types field="image_1" size="medium" align="none" resize="pad" padding_color="#FFF"][/types]</li>
  [/wpv-for-each]
  </ul>
</div>

After doing this then you will need to add the script for it to work.

Add this to the js section of the content template.

jQuery(window).load(function() {
   jQuery('.flexslider').flexslider();
 });

I am trying to add custom html slider into a layouts cell. after i add the code into HTML/VISUAL editor and try to save it shows me an error "There was an error during the ajax request, make sure the data you send are in json format."


<div class="w3-content" style="max-width:1200px">
  <div class="mySlides"><img src="[types field='1-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%"></div>
  <div class="mySlides"><img src="[types field='2-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%"></div>
  <div class="mySlides"><img src="[types field='3-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%"></div>
  <div class="mySlides"><img src="[types field='4-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%"></div>




  <div class="w3-row-padding w3-section">
    <div class="thumb-img-slide">
      <img class="demo cursor" src="[types field='1-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%" onclick="currentDiv(1)">
    </div>
    <div class="thumb-img-slide">
      <img class="demo cursor" src="[types field='2-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%" onclick="currentDiv(2)">
    </div>
    <div class="thumb-img-slide">
      <img class="demo cursor" src="[types field='3-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%" onclick="currentDiv(3)">
    </div>
    <div class="thumb-img-slide">
      <img class="demo cursor" src="[types field='4-car-image' output='raw'][/types]" style="width:100%" onclick="currentDiv(4)">
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

So i tried to remove the "onclick="currentDiv" and the file could be saved and the thumbnails of the slider show up! but the onclick function now doesn't work anymore because i had to delete it. so how can i make this slider work now?

GOOD - Here is an example how this should work (content template + HTML editor of Visual composer) : hidden link

BAD - Here is how it looks like now with Layout only: hidden link
_____

How to make the Slider work with the Viusal/HTML cell of layout with my code above?
If there is a better way to add a slider to a single post type, what is it?

Hi Nashaat,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

It seems you're using multiple images for your slider. You can actually do this with the repeatable fields and the flexslider .

Take a look at the link below.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

Thank you very much Shane! this worked great.

I think it would be great if you guys add a built in option of a slider with multiple images without installing 3rd party plugins. I prefer to lean on you and your plugins more, since its a great feeling to know that you will always bring new stuff and solution and there to support your community

Thanks
