Sorry – but what has changed? When something works and then stops working something must have changed. So maybe a WP theme change or update? A new WP plugin or update?

really do need to know what changed…

but try it with the browser console open and see what if any js errors are reported…  no caching plugins, right?  or js minify plugins?

Thanks guys for the help.

To my knowledge nothing has changed, which is why I’m so stumped lol.  I know conflicting plugins and theme updates are often the cause, but I just can’t locate anything (yet!).

The one clue I can provide is that the “Add Topic Button”, next to the “Reply Button”, sends me to this page http://myfishingcapecod.com/forum-3/cape-cod-fishing-forum/?new=topic however I am shown content from the forum, instead of the New Topic box.

Here’s a real brief video http://screencast.com/t/6bIjVbDamT

As always thanks for any insight or clues as to where I could look next.

as guest, we cannot post a new topic… the video would be more useful if you had done it with the browser console window open so we could see if any errors…  since you entire forum is behind a paywall, we cannot look for js conflicts for you…

Thanks Mr. Papa.  I’m going to put this task on the back burner for now, but will be in touch again if I need assistance.

Next time I’ll have a browser console window open – good idea there.

Thanks!

we will be here…

Hi guys, I was wondering the same thing.. Been testing my forum to launch on the 14th and now add topic and reply doesn’t work. Have deactivated plugins/adsense widgets and still not working. Only updated plugin was a recent sp plugin (can’t remember which one) and Jetpack (but deactivated).

Any ideas?

like a js conflict… see: http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/troubleshooting/what-is-this-jquery-conflict/

if you give us a link to your forum, we can help check for obvious conflicts…

looks like an issue with your wp theme…. its violating wp standards and loading its old version of jquery…

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.1/jquery-ui.min.js”></script>

and its a quite old version at that…  themes really just need to use the version of jquery that comes with wp (currently at version 1.10.2) or else you get these kind of conflicts…
