TinyMCE post editor borks with Puploader

Don’t know why, but I’m running a minimally modded Thesis, with the SPF TinyMCE and file upload plugins but they won’t play nice together. So I’m now using the simple HTML tag editor (the BBcode version also works fine, and of course the plain text also) but it’s a pity I can’t use the TinyMCE editor (actually, it’s a pity the users / members can’t because they complain most about the other editors)

I’m using the current 5 pre-release with all current plugins, and a (really) minimally modded theme (basically upping the basic font size a bit)

Somehow there’s jQuery snafu going on.

What errors are you getting in the error console when you try these together?

its been working great for folks and finally most are happy with the uploader vs the old file manager… really, this is first post of issues (short of earlier bugs fixed)…  a link would help (and Andy’s question)…

Unfortunately a link wouldn’t be helpful, I’m in the middle of prepping a revamped version of the website running on a different theme (i.e. Thesis) but I’d more than happy to create a temp admin so you can bypass the maintenance fence and see for yourself.

Let me know if you want that and I’ll PM you the link + creds.

PS: I myself LOVE the new uploader. It’s waaaaaaay better than that clunky file uploading system within TinyMCE so I want nothing more than to see the two play nicely along.

Edit: no idea how to see jQuery error messages, JS is all mystery to me. I suspect Firebug has something to do with it but I just don’t know how to conjure error catching in it.

one problem could be that you have a theme or a plugin incorrectly loading jquery ui from google apis… its adding this:

<script type=’text/javascript’ src=’https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/jquery-ui.min.js?ver=1.8.16′>

the problem with that is that wp is also loading its version of jquery ui… and the two may very well be conflicting – especially since wp loads a bunch of the other jquery ui elements which may or may not be included in that google apis version…

Ugh… I turned off the Use Google Libraries plugin to avoid just that. I’ve switched it on, see if that helps – I doubt it because I’ve used any imaginable combination…

Yikes, I hadn’t counted on a double loading issue.

do you even have the tinymce plugin for sp active?

Its not even an option for me to select as my editor…

I’ve switched it off but it’s available for activation on the backend.

Meanwhile I’ve weeded out some of the duplicate loading but the clash between TinyMCE and Pluploader remains…

As of this moment I am seeing the main jQuery library being loaded from google and then 2 copies of the jquery UI also being loaded from google.

So not only loading them from a source that doesn’t play well with other plugins but at least 1 component is not using the proper wp API to load scripts or there would not be  a second loading…
