I have a Wordpress site and recently a text Javascript stopped executing properly. I have tried to back-trace my steps to undo any changes but nothing has worked. The same script works fine when pasted into a different website, viewed in the same browser window. Based on posts I've read here, I believe there is something else running on my page causing this script to fail, but I don't know what it is.

My website is www.lookupministries.org and the failed script is called "VODT", or, Verse of the Day. It is on the sidebar. The url for the script location as well as the script value return correctly when I paste them into a browser.

I am not a developer. The only other Javascript I am aware is running is Google Analytics in the header - and yes, I did remove that to see if it solved the problem but of course it did not.

If any of you have the spare cycles to look at this, I would be very grateful. Thank you!

This (http://www.lookupministries.org/wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/external/donottrack-min.js?ver=3.2.1) is the file that's preventing the link from loading, but don't ask me why; it's obfuscated and I'm not sifting through that. It's part of the "wp youtube lyte" plugin.

Basil, that is amazing. Thank you so much!!! And a good lesson for me, I disabled all the plugins one at a time but I'm guessing I didn't pay close enough attention or I would have found this. I really appreciate your insight - for a non-developer, it's magical.
