(Just confirming - is true?)

Does that mean that - IF IT’S TRUE - I feel once again inspired to write Eddie fics?

YES, Internet. YES IT FUCKING DOES.

So, you might know this amazing tutorial right here by @fukuo about making a featured posts section with the Tumblr API and jQuery.

Given that we're all kind of try to move away from jQuery, I thought, would it be possible using vanilla JS only? I tried converting it by myself first but — after reading a StackOverflow thread on how to convert jQuery's "getScript()" to vanilla JS — I realized that I lack the knowledge to do that (and not need ages for the conversion). Instead, I decided to use different online converters and check if the JS looks valid and doesn't contain traces of jQuery still; I ended up using this converter here. The result can be seen here (just the script).

However, when I use this script, there is no result at all and the featured posts are not being displayed. The code analysis on CodePen tells me that "Uncaught TypeError: document.querySelector.getScript is not a function", which brings me back to the aforementioned StackOverflow thread that made me feel like the huh? cat.

I did try @eggdesign's featured tags code as an alternative but either I'm incapable of running even that one or it is simply not compatible with @mournstera's base code, which I'm using.

If anyone has ideas on how to fix the converted code to make it work, I'm glad to hear your suggestions, it can only get better and I thank you in advance for offering your time and skill to help.

I couldn't immediately find some sort of node that allowed copying and pasting raw code with the click of a button, so I made one!

The icon is from fontawesome (so you can download a massive collection if u want) and can easily be replaced by another icon on the css page. The layout itself is fully customizable, but this one currently has classes added to the divs that automatically get themed with any jquery ui theme. It's resizable. All libraries you need don't need downloading, as google hosts jquery libraries and cdn hosts jquery ui themes. Pretty sure they also host fontawesome, but if they don't, you can get the links to the code on the fontawesome site.

What I'm most proud of is: You can have as many of them on the page as you want! The only limit is...well...ur computer? lol. What I mean by that is: copy and paste the divs that are a "blueprint", and the script will automatically add IDs/images necessary to keep everything all lined up. Every panel can be copied individually.

There's an indication as to whether copying was successful, as well.

Still have to do mobile testing, to see if the button works on devices, but after that, I'd be happy to share. It's not a plugin, per se (I still have yet to figure out how to make those), but I'm thinking abt making it into a regular ol Javascript function that you can still just plug in values.

jQuery is still the most-used JavaScript library at 94%.

WordPress still powers 43% of all websites.
