Can't Edit Home Page Properties Description: Message From Webpage
Permalink
Using Simplicity Theme, attempted to add text in the Description box for the Page Properties. When I hit SAVE,the error message box (attached as jpeg below) "Message From Webpage" appears. The rotating busy icon appears on the screen and never goes away. I have to abort the editing session to recover.
I then attempted to go through the Dashboard and edit the Page Properties for Home page, adding Meta Description, Page Type->Defaults for this page. When I accessed the Page Properties under Edit, a similar "Message From Webpage" appears and the busy icon remains on.
Why can't I add a Description to my Home Page? And, why does adding attributes to this page type also fail?

Same kind of problem using default theme.
i have this problem with IE on several customer sites. i have to use the firefox browser to edit my pages. I have this problem since version 5.5.x
Thank you so very much for the work-around, tecnolord. Under Concrete 5.5.1, none of the page properties can be editied using Internet Explorer (tried 8 & 9). Works AOK with Firefox.
Do you know if this has been reported as a bug? I couldn't find a reference to it in the Bug Tracking pages under development.

Hi,
good to see that it works for you too.
i don't know if it is reported as a bug. I didn't think of it directly as a bug, but more a silly feature of IE. :-/

The error seems to be because the search input on the Custom Attributes tab is in a sub-form, which breaks IE (all subsequent fields are ignored, breaking the server side processing of the form).
As a quick hack to 'fix' this for a client, I just commented out the search form - in concrete/elements/collection_metadata_fields.php line 25, replacing the entire "ccm-block-type-search-wrapper" div with this:
(the new hidden element is just so the javascript on the page doesn't complain, keeping the change to a minimum)
I have reported this as a bug (http://www.concrete5.org/index.php?cID=320049) so hopefully we will get a proper fix soon!

This seems to be fixed in 5.5.2.1
Same result - "Message from Webpage" error, and endless busy icon.

I cannot seem to change Page Names, Descriptions or Attributes without running into this error.
