Unable to add topics

I am unable to add forum topics. I did read https://simple-press.com/support-forum/sp5-general-topics/add-topic-doesnt-work-1/, but it doesn’t seem that the issues there apply. So far as I can tell, all js comes from our domain, which I can email you. (We haven’t gone public yet and I set guest permissions to standard.)

It could be an issue with your WordPress theme loading old JS. If running Firefox you could try turning on the error console and look for errors (not warnings) or Chrome Tools >Java Script Console then see if it shows anything on page loads or button clicks.

Thanks, but pushing on the button doesn’t produce any errors (or anything else.)

Yes, I tried that troubleshooting. It didn’t seem to apply.

I sent link in pm.

I am seeing multiple js errors on page loads…

d.widget is not a function
…{rotation:null,rotate:function(b,e){var a=this,c=this.options,h=a._rotate||(a._r…

$ is not a function     
$(‘dl.tabs’).each(function () {

the latter being from a wp theme js file:

<script type=’text/javascript’ src=’http://xxxxxxxxxx/wp-content/themes/ifeaturepro/core/library/js/app.js?ver=3.3.1′></script>

it is using a mixture of $ and jQuery in the namespace… with wp, much better to always use jQuery…

additionally, you are using wp cache… have you disabled caching on the forum page by telling it to ignore the forum page?  since each forum page is dynamically generated, you cannot cache it with a wp plugin since it will think its all one page…

you might try a temp switch to the default wp theme and see if it clears up to narrow it down…

I updated the theme and it works fine (crossing fingers). Maybe they cleaned up something that was a problem.
