Okay seems all the javascript stuff is messed :/

Toolbox doesnt open, too.

Browsercache deleted, even another Browser installed…

We are unaware of any ‘hot fixes’ needed and certainly this is a unique report I believe.

Have you updated absolutely everything that is needed? I.e., not just WordPress, Simple:Press and all Simple:Press plugins but also any other WordPress plugins and theme? 

Do you have any form of JavaScript caching or one of those awful plugins that try and join all of the  scripts together active?

Are you using the Simple:Press combined Javascript option (Options > Global) and if so have you tried with things turned off?

Have you added any new WP plugin components or turned any new options on in your Wp theme?

Are you able to look at the browser console to look for Script errors as they happen?

Hey, just saw that SP is not up to date. But I wont get it updated see

https://simple-press.com/support-forum/sp5-general-topics/sp-5-5-3-upgrade-said-it-completed-but-it-did-not-the-plugins-and-themes-that-require-5-5-3-did-update/

lets leave that over there… and deal with one item per topic… easier to follow… first step is to get everything up to date…

Okay the problem is resolved with manual update to 5.5.3 now. Cleared the cache afterwards and all Javascript works as intended.

good news..  would like to understand why 2 installs out of thousands couldnt get tell there was an upgrade… suspect is server blocking the api request, but dont know…  understand needing to get back online though!
