JavaScript issues on Chrome after Big Sur Update

Question

Hi,

I'm not certain if it's the Big Sur update, but my colleague is no longer able to view images on our site requiring JS after she updated to Big Sur. I'm going to update to Big Sur right now to see if I experience the same issue.

I can see a thread in support with the same concern, but I don't have permission to view the response.

Thanks.

Hello,

Apologies for the inconvenience caused!

We have checked out your Website and you are using an Old Version of Canvas which has Old 3rd Party Plugin Codes that could cause conflicts with New OS Updates. Make sure that you are using the Latest Version of Canvas with the Updated Codes to ensure maximum compatibility. This is why we always keep Canvas updated with the Latest Plugins and Codes. So simply update to the Latest Version and this will definitely fix your issue.

If you are not ready to update to the Latest Version, consider updating the Youtube BG Player Plugin to the Latest Version in the js/plugins.js File.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.

Would this be necessary if I had created this in WordPress?
