Hi guys,

I have upgraded to the latest WP, I already had 5.2.2 Simple press installed, now I can't post any topics at all, the box that I am typing in now does not come up. The only box that comes up to type in is the topic name.

Before the upgrade, when I clicked add topic, it would show all boxes but when I went to submit the post it would say that there was no text in the post.

Now since the upgrade, I cant post anything at all.

Please help

A link to your forum page might prove helpful - especially if guests can get to topic listings...

You most probably have a JavaScript conflict - your wp theme or another plugin - which needs to be fixed. This codex article explains what this means and what to look for:

The first thing that pops up in the debugger is that your WP theme is throwing at lest 2 javascript errors on the page which are enough to stop other scripts from operating.

As per the link I put in my last post, your theme is also incorrectly loading it's own version of jQuery instead of using the WP version that WP supplies. This means that it is now out of date and an old version. The theme also does not use the WP API to load scripts.

That is the probable cause if the issue. Also probably easily corrected once the location of the script loading has been established - probably the functions.php file of the theme. As I say, easily corrected as long as the custom scripts the theme supplies are written correctly.

Ok thanks mate but how can I fix this, sorry but Im a real dummy when it comed to coding and stuff.

I have purchased a different theme, one which is compatable with WP 3.5.1 I can use if that will fix the problem

The below is from the functions.php you mention, this is the only thing I can see with jQuery

//Loading jQuery and Scripts
 require_once $includes_path . 'theme-scripts.php';

I updated TinyMCE and it returned the text box, I am abe to type in the box but when I go to submit the post I get the following error every time

Unable to save
No post content entered

 

EDIT: TinyMCE 2.0.3 was the cause of my problem, once I disabled that plugin for SP it works the way it should now, I just need to find a compatable TinyMCE plugin that works with SP

For the jQuery issue I would have expected to see something like a string of calls to the functions wp_deregister_script(), wp_register_script() and wp_enqueue_script(). Do you not see these?

The 'no post content' problem is weird and suggests an error in the WP core in the way it handles transients. Could you try something for me? Go to the forum toolbox > housekeeping panel and click on the 'Clean Up Transients' button. See if that helps....

Sorry mate please read above your post, I edited.

 

TinyMCE was my problem, 2.0.3 appears to be incompatable

 

EDIT: Ok this is what I did, I deactivated TinyMCE 2.0.3, then I looked at the forums again and I also had Editor QuickTags BBCode and also Editor QuickTags HTML so I then deactivated both of those thinking that there may be some sort of conflict, I reactivated TinyMCE 2.0.3 and all is good
