it appears that the Add Topic and Reply buttons are not functioning any more. I’ve received complaints from a few users stating that they experienced similar issues when trying to add a topic or reply to a post. The forum does not respond when the buttons are clicked. This was not an issue a few days ago. This error is affecting all user levels (i.e. members, moderators, and admin)
WEBSITE: HTTP://INCEPIONRADIONETWORK.COM/FORUM
The site is throwing script errors. Something to do with a captcha of some sort is breaking jQuery.
The problem is that CSS aggregator plugin. The issue went away after I disabled it, but then again, Forum theme doesn’t load in IE again.. Oh boy..
So my dilemma has surfaced again. I’d rather have the people who aren’t using IE to at least be able to post or create one. As a sacrifice, those using IE will see a garbled mess.
I believe you can decide whether to aggregate both js and css so why not just turn off he js aggregation? Seems simple enough solution.
I did just that. I varied between the 2 options to see if it would make a difference and it did not.
So whether CSS or JSS boxes are checked in that plugin made no difference with the issue of being unable to reply to or add a post. The only way for me to have the ability to reply to post is to completely deactivate the plugin. Even unchecking both features, but not deactivating the plugin caused the same error. So this plugin clearly has some compatibility issues with the forum.
is your site having difficulties? I have been unable to get it to load tonight… anything on your site that is… or maybe the link above is wrong?
ah, that link is different than the one you posted in post #1… that one appears to be missing a ‘t’ in inception… which would explain why I couldnt access the site…
will take a look shortly…
so on group view… your column widths are 12, 48, 32 and 14… that totals 106%… as I said, need to lower it to be 100% or less…
and in IE, I count well over 50 stylesheets being loaded… way to many for that crappy browser, it can only read 31… and the forum stuff is the last to get loaded, or in this case get ignored… hence no styles…
if you want to turn back on the aggregator for css only, I can take a look… will be around for another 15 mins or so…
I reactivated the plugin. will look into reducing the % issue. Thought I had it sorted out. I’m not sure how to check how many stylesheets are loading on my site.
Another IE issue I observed even with the Css plugin is that the forum only loads to certain levels. For instance, it would show a couple levels worth before it didn’t load the forum.
you would look at the page source and count the <link tags…
okay, so both are displaying correctly now on topic view… but as a guest, I cannot post to see if there is issue there… was that issue in any browser?
also, I have to ask… since your forum is seriously width limited… why are you showing a sidebar and the only thing in the sidebar is the forum recent posts?? not sure that is any value on the forum page itself… seems like you might be better off giving that width to the forum…
The sidebar is part of the website theme. I didn’t think I could get rid of it in the page nor no how to get rid of it.
sure you can… most decent themes these days come with multiple page templates… its built into wp to allow a page to appear on different page template… edit the wp page the forum appears on… you should be able to select a different page template, ie full width no sidebars, assuming the theme was decent enough to provide them…
if not, its pretty easy to create a custom page template yourself and we can walk you through it…
My theme comes from http://eleganthemes.com and see any specific page customization options. I’m running a child-theme on that. But surely I would appreciate any help on removing the sidebar from that specific forum page.
