Does this platform support jsPsych v7?

Hello! I successfully pushed my experiment that coded by jsPsych v7 to Gitlab, and also changed the status to piloting, but it won’t run successfully.
Here are the error messages reported:

Hello @Josuke ,

Since jsPsych changed their plugin system for version 7, we have a new, specific pavlovia plugin for it.
It is available on the pavlovia.org server at this URL: https://pavlovia.org/lib/jspsych-7-pavlovia-2022.1.1.js
Version 7.1.2 of jsPsych is also now available on the server at this URL: https://pavlovia.org/lib/vendors/jspsych-7.1.2

I have also prepared an illustrative experiment, that showcases how to use the new plugin. You will find it here: Alain Pitiot / jsPsych7_simple_reaction_time · GitLab
It is jsPsych’s simple reaction time experiment with the pavlovia plugin added on top.

You’ll note that it is very, very similar in spirit to the previous approach: one simply needs to add the relevant scripts in the header (or in the body) and add a pavlovia_init and pavlovia_finish at the start and end of the timeline, respectively.

I took the opportunity offered by the redesign to remove the dependence on jQuery.

I would strongly encourage you to test thoroughly before deploying your experiment, as the plugin is relatively new. And do not hesitate to contact me, should you have any questions or issues.

Best wishes,

Alain

Thank you very much for patient and detailed reply.
With your reply and the reference to the DEMO, I successfully ran my experiment.
However, probably due to the server (I am in China), my experiment has a problem of losing stimulus(audio) during the run. Anyway, I am currently switching to another platform.
Thanks again for your patience in replying.

Best wishes,

Josuke
