cannot see all pages and search does not work

Only the 20 latest pages are displayed in the sidebar editor by default. Version 1.3.5 should have improved the search function, but I understand that you can still not find the right page.

What is the title of the page you search for? Can you generally find any page with the search function?

i think it was a javascript problem. i used wp register script to load needed script via functions.php

before that, it was impossible to search the desired page, auto complete was also broken.

now, problem solved. thanks.

I have got the same problem the search function doesn′t work (no pages are shown no matter what I type in that search field).

@sez3r how did you solve the problem? I don′t really get the think with the java script you were talking.

hi,
i realised that plugins script was not found, via java console – chrome browser.

then i added wp register script functions to that spesific locations into the functions.php of theme file.

after that, it worked.

i think you have to know what the problem is, firstly.

Thanks for this information. All scripts and styles in the plugin should be enqueued properly, and I therefore think this error is caused by incompatibilities with another plugin.

What other plugins are activated on your site?

Thank your for the answer (because the problem isn′t solved yet).

These plugin are activated:

Akismet
bbPress
Captcha
Content Aware Sidebars
Event Organiser
Google Analytics for WordPress
Jetpack von WordPress.com
Polldaddy Polls & Ratings
Wordfence Security
WordPress Importer

That′s it ;).

sez3er,
I second Asuka, what is the script that you put in?

On my site, I can search, the page shows on the list below the search box. But it can’t be selected. As soon as I move the mouse cursor, the list disappear. I also can move the selection with keyboard arrow, it disappeared.

Joachim,

The list shows only 20 of the latest pages, you said.
The latest of what?
Is there any way to reset it?

Thanks

I do not think any of the listed plugins should conflict with Content Aware Sidebars. I have tested most of them.

The JS functionality in version 1.3.5 relies on:

jQuery
jQuery UI Accordion
jQuery UI Autocomplete

These can be found in WordPress Core as of version 3.3+.

If the list disappears, it sounds like a conflict. To figure out if it is and what the conflict might be, go to the sidebar editor and open a JavaScript console in your browser (for Chrome and Firefox: CTRL SHIFT J, for Internet Explorer 11: F12) and refresh the page. If there are any JS errors, they will be shown in the console.

By default in version 1.3.5, only the 20 latest items of the specific content (posts, pages, authors etc) are listed in the sidebar editor. The rest should be found with the search functionality. By latest, I refer to the creation date of the items.
You can change this value to any other number in the code, of course, but there is no way to reset it from the administration panel.

Having very similar issues. The sidebar edit page did not have any accordion affects, appears to be more of a flat list, and is completely non-functional. I have many more plugins then what is listed above one of which being Better WP Security. I noticed i had SSL enforced for admin pages and the css and js was being blocked
[blocked] The page at 'https://.../wp-admin/post.php?post=1913&action=edit' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'https://.../wp-content/plugins/content-aware-sidebars/css/style.css?ver=1.2': this content should also be loaded over HTTPS.

I disabled SSL and browsed via https:// and everything looked better and worked nicely. So for me its an SSL issue. I did take a look at the content-aware-sidebars.php and see where the CSS and js are being loaded but not seeing anything specifying https vs htttps, so not sure whats going on, but I can imagine I’m not the only paranoid security conscious user of this plugin.

This plugin is great and I hope this helps resolve the issue. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback tnault. I have not tested the plugin with SSL, but I do see and acknowledge that the way I have written the paths to the enqueued files is wrong. This will be fixed in version 2 which is soon done.
