Search bar or calendar not clickable

Your search bar or booking calendar does not respond to clicks, and you see the error "hkUIkit is not defined".

Why this happens. This is almost always caused by a hosting-side JavaScript optimizer. The optimizer minifies one of HomeRunner’s core script files down to a broken or empty file, so the interactive code never loads.

On SiteGround (Speed Optimizer / SG Optimizer)

  1. In WordPress admin, open Speed Optimizer.
  2. Go to the Frontend tab, then the JavaScript sub-tab.
  3. Turn off Minify JavaScript Files.
  4. Turn off Combine JavaScript Files.
  5. Click Purge SG Cache in the top admin bar.
  6. Reload the page in a private or incognito window and test.

Other JavaScript optimizers. The same pattern applies to WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, Autoptimize, and W3 Total Cache. Either disable JavaScript minify and combine, or add HomeRunner’s scripts (the homerunner-kit / UIkit file) to the optimizer’s minify and combine exclusion lists. Then clear the cache.

Clearing the cache without changing the setting often regenerates the same broken file.
