Authorizing Constant Contact API plugin breaks Page editor

Please send a login to [email protected] and I’ll see what I can find out.

Find anything?

There appears to be an issue with the CSS upon authentication of the API. Content is in the textareas of my pages, but it’s white (like the background). Also, the Visual/Text buttons don’t work; nor do any of the form buttons. The problems only occur upon authentication.

I did find the issue; it was related to the EventSpot functionality. I thought I updated the script on your site – did you check to see if it is working now?

I’m running into the same issue. Will the fix be released soon?

The problem still persists. Authenticating with Constant Contact breaks the page editors.

This should be fixed in 3.1.6.

If not, 3.1.6 adds a setting to disable EventSpot functionality on the Settings page. If you disable EventSpot, the issue will no longer happen.

Zack, will the Event Spot functionality be fixed in a future release? Thanks.

If you have EventSpot enabled, this might fix it – as it seems to fix Visual Composer.

After an hour or so of fun debugging, I figured out what this was.

The fix for this conflict is:

Edit the file:

wp-content/plugins/constant-contact-api/lib/eventspot/embed.php

Find this line near the top:

add_action(‘admin_footer’, ‘eventspot_add_mce_popup’);

Change it to this (priorities lower then 200 probably work, but I was pretty unhappy with it at this point and wanted to punish it with an “I-hate-you-now” low priority. Ha. )

add_action(‘admin_footer’, ‘eventspot_add_mce_popup’, 200);

I’m not using EventSpot and I’m running into the same issue. As soon as the Constant Contact Plugin is authenticated, I loose the popup functionality in WordPress’ standard visual editor…

@brettv – trying your solution now.

I’m having the same issue, too. Not using EventSpot either.

@brettv – that worked for me, too! Thanks for posting. Been pulling my hair out now I don’t have to have a bald spot!

Oops, spoke too fast. After reauthorizing, the screen is blank AGAIN (well actually white text and no ability to switch between visual editor or text)! BUT since I’m not using EventSpot, I just commented out the line. So far so good. Hopefully won’t run into any other issues later but everything seems to be working ok with that line commented out. Thanks again @brettv

I also just commented out the line suggested by brettv and the Tinymce was happy again.

Thank you @brettv

Thanks for the interim solution! It took me a while to figure out it was this plugin causing the problem.

Hopefully they can get it fixed in the next update.
