Some buttons don't work on my forum…

But not all.  You can see it here: http://businessdirectoryplugin.com/support-forum/support-questions/problem-with-post-edit-buttonow-do-you-edit-the-thumbnail-size-of-the-listings/

Examples that are broken:

  • Add Reply
  • Print
  • Quote

Examples that work:

  • Delete
  • Edit
  • Link

What would be the cause of that?

ah an update.. thought you had said that edit did not work… what happens when you click on one of those buttons?

which editor are you using for SP? looks like just the default text editor… assume latest SP and its plugins? out of curiosity and perhaps narrow it down, have you tried one of the other editors (bbcode, hmtl or tinymce)?

any caching plugins?

This is a different thread than the “Edit button doesn’t work”, and a different site.  That’s over here:  https://simple-press.com/support-forum/sp5-general-topics/edit-button-does-not-work/

I have Simple Press 5.1.1, latest plugins.  I have the TinyMCE editor set.

I’m running on WPEngine which has its own caching (they don’t allow caching plugins, they handle it on their own).  http://wpengine.com.

Clicking on the broken buttons does nothing.  The URL shows “javascript:void(null)” when it’s a broken button.

The Add Topic button (from the main forum list) does nothing as well.  Add Topic (from within a single topic) takes me to the main forum list.

what is it caching???  if its trying to cache wordpress pages, you need to get them to tell it not to cache the wp page the forum appears on… its all dynamic generated content…

you can ignore the javascript:void stuff…  all quite normal for an empty type href… the a tag uses the onclick attribute there for its action…

do you have firefox with the firebug addon?  or your browser and dev tool of choice… what does the console show when you click on the button?

Occasionally, it says:

jQuery(“#spFontSize”).spjFontResize is not a function
jQuery("#spFontSize").spjFontResize();
But most of the time, it says nothing, no matter which one I click on.

ah… are you running your own theme?  copied from one of ours?  if so, seems you might have some leftover code…

are your running the SP font resizer plugin? 

can you look at your theme spFunctions.php file…  does it have the font resizer stuff in there?

I am running your Stacked theme, version 1.1.1.  Unmodified.

I see this at the top of my spFunctions.php file:

if(function_exists(‘sp_FontResizer’)) {
    add_action(‘sph_BeforeDisplayStart’, ‘spStacked_spShowFontResize’);
}

Would this be a jQuery conflict as well?

unmodified?  okay, please be sure to see this: http://codex.simple-press.com/codex/themes/theme-basics/creating-a-theme/

if you do need to make any customizations…  do you have the font resizer plugin?  appears so… and its latest version?

Well, I logged out, cleared my browser cache and logged back in.  Things seem to be better now.  🙂  Must have been the site transfer, a bad cookie, or something weird like that.

Thanks!

(and the guest posting issue is working the way I want too)
