Hi,

I'm having some trouble sourcing the 2D animations.  I've downloaded the zip, src'ed it in my project and even used the cdn but i cant get the animations to work outside of codepen.  I'm basically trying to get this 
to work.  My questions are:  1) Do i need some sort of key to make animations run on a server or something like heroku?  If so, where do I access that key?  2) Does the CDN link all of the extra fun plugins?  3) Are there any other languages I need to source in order for greensock to work?  I'm using basic html5, css and jquery.  4)Is there an example that walks me through linking files if the cdn doesn't provide your entire lib?(so far it seems like every tutorial skips a step or two)?  Right now the current error I'm getting is that 'slider.slider' is not a function....  5) final question.  Why are you linking/sourcing files outside the <head> tag and what order to they need to be in?  Thank you so much for your help.  This stuff is so cool and super easy to navigate, the hardest part is just getting it set up.  

 

I've attached my html page, I'm not used to src files right above </body>.

HI @chargar :)

 

Looks like you're missing a couple files that the CodePen is using:  (jQuery UI and touch punch). Please add these scripts to your project: 

<script src= "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src= "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui-touch-punch/0.2.3/jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js"></script>

 

Regarding the Club plugins - there is no CDN link so you will have to host those on your own. Just download them from your GreenSock account and put them into a folder for your local project.

 

That should get you up and running.

 

Happy tweening.

:)

You're a Shockingly Green Club member so you should be able to click on your profile and there should be a zip download in your dashboard with all the bonus plugins. It should be something like:

GSAP with Shockingly Green bonus (1.20.2) 

 

Click that and unzip it to your local development folder and you should be good to go. You can use the CDN links for TweenMax and non-club plugins, but all those bonus plugins will have to be hosted with your project files.

 

Happy tweening.

:)

PointC, you are the man.  Thank you so much for your help with this.  The GreenSock product is epic, but the community and how willing people are to engage with and teach newcomers... thats what will keep me renewing my membership.  It simply can't be beat.  Thank you.
