Hi, just two question:

 

– where can I find the tools/button to move/merge/pin/lock topics?

– Which kind of permission must have a user to use “Link to Forum” plug in? Some user of my site have the plug-in area empty.

 

Thanks in advance.

Please see this for the forum tools: http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/faq/problem-with-post-edit-buttonow-to/problem-with-post-edit-buttonow-to-delete-a-topic-or-post-and-other-tools/

As to blog linking your user will need to be able to create WP posts and have the ‘Can create linked blog post and forum topics’ permission turned on.

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:

I’m having this same issue. I read the information on the page you linked to and found this:

How can I correct this?

Initially we would strongly recommend that you contact the theme or plugin author and explain to them what is needed. If a paid-for theme – and experience shows that these can often be effected – then their support should be able to accommodate the request as it is not unreasonable and enables the plugin or theme to be more widely usable.

 

So if that’s the case, will you help me troubleshoot the situation? Everything was working fine together (and still is), it’s just your premium plugin that doesn’t want to play nicely with my site.  I’ve looked at my source code and found that “jquery.js?ver=1.7.2” is the only jquery.js file being called.  

I do see other calls to jquery, such as:

jquery.flexslider.js?ver=1.8
jquery.prettyPhoto.js?ver=1.3.4
jquery.jplayer.min.js?ver=2.1.0

Could those cause the conflict? I always assumed they were extensions of the core jquery functions. So far the forum is working great, except that I can’t moderate any posts.

Well your first problem is that you have 3 copies of the main jQuery library being loaded – 2 are being loaded from WP and an older version is being loaded from the googleapis CDN.

At least 2 of these copies are being loaded WITHOUT using the WP API to check if they are already loaded and one – the one from google – is just a disaster!

What I can not tell you is what is loading them. One might well be the theme. The other – if it is any help – is being loaded immediately after the jquery tabs plugin is being loaded…

If you can track them down then we can help you deal with them.

Excellent, thanks for the quick detective work. I’ve removed the one from GoogleAPIs and will look for the other copy.

Do you think that this will fix the issue here? http://lootpalace.com/forum/profile Basically the AJAX never loads profile info, if you click a tab, it loads the profile content in a new tab with no styles. We can deal with this later of course.

Possibly but I can’t of course see that as I am not a member! Let’s see what happens…

Any chance you can actually copy/paste the 2 types of jQuery you’re finding in there so we’re on the same page, and so I can really hunt down the culprit

I’ve got on line 32: 

<script type=’text/javascript’ src=’http://lootpalace.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.7.2′></script>

Well the googleapi one has gone (?) so there are now just two being loaded from WP. That one above should not call the script directly but should use the wp_enqueue_script method.

Yep, I was able to delete the call to Google’s API. It was in header.php. What’s the 2nd jquery being loaded from WordPress?

 

My theme uses wp_enqueue_script I believe, this is in my theme’s function.php file:

function aero_theme_scripts() {

wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘modernizr’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/modernizr.js’, false, ‘2.3.5’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘superfish’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/superfish.js’, false, ‘1.4.8’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘cssfx’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/cssfx.js’, false, ‘0.9.3’);
wp_enqueue_script(‘plugins’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/plugins.js’, false, THEMEVERSION);
wp_enqueue_script(‘custom’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/scripts.js’, false, THEMEVERSION);

/* If is contact page */
if ( is_page_template( ‘template-contact.php’ ) ) {
wp_enqueue_script(‘validate-contact-form’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/javascripts/validate-contact-form.js’, false, THEMEVERSION);
}

/* If is single and comment is allowed */
if ( is_singular() && get_option( ‘thread_comments’ ) ) {
wp_enqueue_script( ‘comment-reply’ );
}

}

so that means its likely coming from another wp plugin… can you check those?  or temp deactivate them and see if it goes away and then reactivate one by one till it comes back…
