Hi Shingo, these are two fantastic themes you've provided for use. Thank you very much, I can't wait to finish this one up!
Question - on eDegree I dont see any pictures or text in the FCG box that comes on the theme. I've followed the steps but still no luck. Any ideas?
Thanks again!
Hi,
I have the same problem, I opened a post at the FCS website, see http://www.featuredcontentgallery.com/forum/fcs-black-box-no-images-or-text-2608.html
They have had a look and think it is a jquery conflict ?
Any help appreciated, great theme by the way !!!!
Hey Javy and Rawkey, thanks for your comments - love them! Well, I did find my error. Simply do the following to get the FCS working on your edegree theme:
1) Using the WordPress's theme editor or directly through FTP, uncomment the 2nd line on this file (edegree/js/functions.js) like this:
//jQuery.noConflict();
Then as long as your FCS settings are good, you should be good to go. Let me know if this makes sense.
Shingo, eDegree is a HOT theme!
As far as your advice to break up the jQuery conflict, I'm not seeing the specific path you mentioned. I am, however, seeing these paths:
featured-content-gallery/content-gallery.php
featured-content-gallery/css/jd.gallery.css
featured-content-gallery/css/jd.gallery.css.php
featured-content-gallery/gallery.php
featured-content-gallery/options.php
featured-content-gallery/README.txt
featured-content-gallery/scripts/HistoryManager.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/jd.gallery.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/jd.gallery.js.php
featured-content-gallery/scripts/jd.gallery.set.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/jd.gallery.transitions.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/mootools.v1.11.ext.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/mootools.v1.11.js
featured-content-gallery/scripts/mootools.v1.11.uncompressed.js
Am I just totally missing it? Thanks SO much!

Ah, my mistake, Shingo. Your request is to change it in the theme itself.
Shingo,
That works! Fantastic, thanks for the help.
Had the same problem too with http://blog.2fixmypc.com and this worked a treat!
Many Thanks Shingo!!!
Hi I love the theme but I am having the same problem unfortunately I can't find where i'm supposed to solve the jquery conflict at the moment i'm not sure if i'm going to the wrong place or not so i will say what i have done.
I have gone to the editor part of the appearance menu in wordpress. And from there I am unable to see what to do next. If anyone could help that would be great.
Actually don't worry I've got it working now
I also really like this theme. Just downloaded everything this weekend, so the site is a work in progress, but for the life of me (at 2 beautifully sunny days spent inside, in frustration) I cannot get the FCG to work with Edegree.
I have double & triple checked the articleimg and their associated links for the 2 pages. I have edited the functions.js in the theme. I have entered the correct page numbers in the FCG settings (16,21). I even actually watched the video!
I am having an issue in general using the editor from WP with the theme. Regardless of what I do, I get an error saying the theme is not recognized when I try to save the files. I've done all the editing via download/edit/ftp.
I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
Okay, so it says "uncomment" the line, but it isn't commented... so I commented it out and it works, but now my website shows the "Featured" posts instead of my most recent articles. I think that may be a Wordpress related problem? I seem to remember having problems with trying to get WP to list two different subsets of posts...
Hi guys,
I can't get anything to render in the slide space on my site: [url=http://mymedialabs.com]My Media Labs[/url]. I've deleted the jquery code from the JS file indicated. Also, I added the php code that is needed to show the theme on /home/mymedia2/public_html/wp-content/themes/edegree/home.php. I still get nothing showing.

Help?
I have spent the last 2 hours trying to get this to work. I am a novice but I have done everything on this page and it still will NOT work. Looks to me like the functionality is there but the images aren't showing up: http://blog.facebookformybusiness.com/
Can someone please advise me to what I am missing?
Does anyone want to fix this for me? I would be willing to pay at this point. Still no images showing up although it looks like it cannot find them? http://blog.facebookformybusiness.com/
Ok, I am a complete novice at this, can someone please post a set by set on what I click on to get this working? I am very confused 
It seems the other users here who found the solution don't want to help the less experienced users. Come on guys, this theme is free, the least we can do is help out.
I am using GoDaddy's file manager to do this (on godaddy's hosting control centre not in wp admin), you could also use ftp but that's more complicated. What you need to do is edit the file "functions.js" located in /wp-content/themes/edegree/js/. The path may or may not be the exact same for you. Open the "functions.js" file and on the second line you'll see:
jQuery.noConflict();
Change it to this:
//jQuery.noConflict();
Save.
Open your website and FCGshould now be working. When I tried to do this through wp admin all I could see was .php files in the Themes settings.
Finally, I just want to say a big Thanks to Shingo for making this available to everyone.
Thank you electron! It worked! But... I have this bar going across the images now. It looks like something is loading... Can you see what that might be? I truly appreciate your time!
@cnewman219: I think the bar you see is the area where you enter the featured text tagline, which you configure in the post itself. Edit the post, scroll down to Custom Fields, the first custom field should be "articleimg" with the full URL of the featured image, then add a new Custome Field called "featuredtext" and add one line or so of introductory text you want to appear at the bottom of the image.
I also had to go into the Settings > Featured Content Gallery and set the image size and featured text height in pixels (mine's set to 40px) and it all seems to be working now.
Hope this helps!
Thank you all! The scrolling bar was there because I had inserted the FCG line of code in 2 different files. Working well now. I appreciate the help!! http://blog.facebookformybusiness.com/
electron, i see that you are using godaddy.com . have you experienced speed problems after starting to use the eDegree theme?
I am also a newbie to WP and eDegree and having the same problem. I have read all of th posts and watched with video and cannot get the FCG to work. Now I have been trying to figure out where to to change the file as instructed above:
1) Using the WordPress's theme editor or directly through FTP, uncomment the 2nd line on this file (edegree/js/functions.js) like this:
//jQuery.noConflict();
Can anyone please tell me where to find this file? Maybe a screen shot or a Edgegree for dummy post like, "go here, then here and then scroll down..."
I installed WP with the eDegree and doing everything through the Dashboard.
Help! 
and in advance, thank you for any help!
I'm not a developer, I don't even know HTML, but I can edit code if I'm given step by step instructions. I followed electrons instructions. I've edited the js file and it's working now on the home page, but now its appearing at the bottom of my posts on the other pages too.
Help!!
to Bzy1,
You need to change the file through FTP, and You'll need software like Dreamweaver to edit the js file (js stands for Java Script). You can't edit these files in Wordpress.
Either go to the file manager of your hosting account or use you FTP software. The path is wp-content / themes / edegree / js / functions.js.
You will find this causes another problem which I'm waiting for a resolution for.
Ok guys I really don't want to come accross as a winy s8#t wad, this is meant to be constructive criticism, as harsh as it may sound.
I'm assuming Shingo is the person who designed this theme, and I love it, really its a cool theme, and I'm sure a lot of effort went into developing and distributing it. However......
huge problems with the FGC (and I thank the forum users for their advice).
It appears that you can't use pages if you're using the FGC, because the FGC just randomly appears over your content on anything but the home page.
I've just tried to add the links widget to my footer, only to find it only contains the default links, instead of my links.
Surely if its worth the time and effort to create a product like this, free or not, its worthwhile, for the promotion of your business to make sure the basic features work, like the pages, and the links widget. The FGC I understand due to its complexity.
I'm an internet marketer myself, so I know that giving away free content, like these themes is not for the benefit of Shingo's health, it is for the purpose of promoting the paid services offered in your 'SERVICES' tab which I'm sure will grow as time goes by.
I will continue to use your product, and with the desire to get the bugs fixed, I will source my own developer to fix it.
I would have without question, been happy to pay you to fix any bugs, however I haven't seen any support posts from yourself, or perhaps I'm not looking hard enough. This lack of interest in your potential customers gives no reason to believe you would be any more helpful if you were being paid, and so I'm sorry to say, I'm going to have to find another developer to fix the bugs. All you needed to do was take an interest.
Ok I don't want to bump this feed but this is important.
My wife, decided she wanted to use edegree for her own blog, and after installing it, everything worked fine with none of the troubles I was having.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the theme, and all was well in the world. As a result I thought I should man up and apologise for my previous comments, because it's a great product and Shingo didn't deserve my derogatory remarks.
Clearly Shingo has taken the time to solve the niggling issues with the theme, which is fantastic.
Thank you Shingo, and please accept my apologies.
thanks a lot for the "//" help. it work great for me

If anyone is still struggling with FCG, switching to a plugin called "Dynamic Content Gallery" solved all of lifes problems for me. I tried commenting and uncommenting the noConflict to no avail, so this really is a 'last resort' if it still doesn't work. The two plugins are very similar in features.
Great site Sariyanya!
Here's my brand new blog site... http://www.help4smiles.com
Everything for the FCG is working great!
2 issues I've noticed...
First, I'm getting white text (instead of gray) for the posts on my homepage using IE. That makes them unreadable. Works fine for Firefox. It's a mystery to me.
Second, there's something wacky that happens when I use a custom header. Works perfect on the homepage, but on secondary pages the default header shows up as well - down near the footer. Weird!
I notice Sariyanta's site has the same problem on secondary pages, so I know it's not just me.
Thank,
Joe
Discovered my white text bug - there was a problem in my code for the Top Custom Content widget. The color spilled over into the posts. Funny that it didn't affect the page in Firefox.
For the banner issue, I deleted the original top banner file to prevent it from popping up in the secondary pages. Not an elegant solution but it worked.
Now that everybody else got it working I'm coming up with my issues 
Actually it's not just the gallery but I didn't want to x-post. First of all the gallery is not working, even though I can see the "black box" where it should appear. Already tried the "uncommenting" without success. Any ideas?
Second on my main page there is no content. I guess this has something to do with the gallery, what do you think? On Article-sites everything is fine.
And last but not least: The social buttons "disappear". right now i'm close to tears, but maybe i just starred to long at it and am now overseeing the obvious?
So if it's a complete noob mistake, sorry for bothering but right now I really appreciate any kind of help.
