Edit Page & Add New Page Buttons Not Working

Permalink
Hi guys,

Over the past two days I had problem to edit many pages - particularly newly created but also many previous created pages. (I updated to c5 version 5.4.2 yesterday)

The Edit Page Button (and also Add Page Button) don't work when I click on them.
On some pages it works for a moment and then it doesn't when I try again.
I check my authorisation to edit the pages and it is ok.

I used the latest Safari, Firefox and Chrome and got the same reaction - nothing. Firefox shows javascript: void(0) at the left bottom of the page when I hover on the buttons.

Is there anyone, who has experienced the same problem and fixed it? Or knows how to fix it?

Any ideas much appreciated.

JP

Hi,

Do you have some javascript interfering or not working with the new jquery 1.6.2 in C5?

It is a known issue.

If you do, try taking one out at a time until it works and then put back in until you get an error.

Or if you are calling jquery in your theme - Don't.

Or if I'm completely wrong let me know!

Thanks Steev,

It all seems to point to javascript interfering.

I'm not a designer or programmer, rather just content manager on the web, so do you know a simple way that will allow me to do what you suggested?

Cheers

Hi,
I had the same problem and it was a javascript error. I suggest to use Firefox, install the Firebug-Add-On (in Firefox), open it.
Then chose the "Console" tab in Firebug, refresh your page and click "edit page" or "add page" again. Now, you should see the error(s)..
Hope that helps.

Hi,

I'm having the same problem on my site (edit page button doesnt work, with the "javascript:void(0)" message on the bottom of the browser). Following grorog recomendation, I've looked for the javascript problem. Using the console in chrome, I found the error to be:

Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URLhttp://www.catalunyapresenta.org/... from frame with URLhttps://plusone.google.com/_/+1/fastbutton?url=http%3A.....open%2C_r... Domains, protocols and ports must match.

That is, the problem seems to come from the google+ button. As I cannot access the edit mode, I don't know how to remove the google+ button or how to deal with the problem. Can somebody help me please? (as you see, I'm a beginner)

thanks a lot,

I'm using version 5.4.0.5 (I fear problems in updating) and the plain yogurt theme.

I have also checked the following posts, where the same problem is reported, but I don't know how to proceed:

Ok, solved, it was an orphaned JS laying around.

Thanks

Good news.

JS can screw things up.
