[Plugin: Advanced Custom Fields] Edit post interface not working after upgrade

    I love the Advanced Custom Fields plugin, but with the latest update to the version 3.0.0, something seems to go wrong.

    When I am on the edit post interface, several (standard) links and buttons aren’t working anymore. I cannot edit the post slug (getting the editPermalink is not defined javascript error,) set the post publication date, add post tags, upload images, etc.

    I know that this error is related to upgrading Advanced Custom Fields to 3.0.0 because it didn’t appear just before the upgrade, but also because temporarily disabling only this plugin restores the functionality of the edit post interface back to normal.

    I’m also sure it’s not a browser-related issue because I tried 2 different web browsers and I just kept getting the same error. I’m even having this unresponsive buttons and links problem in 2 different installations of WordPress.

    I have a custom text and textarea fields included in all the edit post pages whose links and buttons aren’t working.

    I tried the usual hacks to restore the javascript functions of the interface with no luck (disabling CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS in wp-config, re-uploading wp-includes and wp-admin, etc.) But the only solution to remove this conflict seems to disable the Advanced Custom Fields plugin. Any ideas?

  • Just wanted to report that this thread helped me – I am using ACF 3.0.6 and WordPress 3.3 and was unable to add links or images in the content editor until I disabled Headspace. Now everything is working again, although these 2 plugins never conflicted before. Hopefully something can be worked out. If anyone is using a different SEO tool that doesn’t seem to be presenting conflicts, please let me know.

    On the sites where I had this problem I switched from headspace 2 to WordPress seo by Yoast https://yoast.com/wordpress/seo/, and this has been fine so far.

    Great – thanks for the tip!

    It appears that ACF 3.0.6 breaks some other plugins. In particular, I’m receiving the following warning on WordTour plugin pages:

    Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method ‘propAttr’ in load-scripts.php:175. This is what I have on this line:

    "boolean")this.options.disabled=this.element.propAttr("disabled");this._determineButtonType();this.hasTitle=!!this.buttonElement.attr("title");var a=this,c=this.options,e=this.type==="checkbox"||this.type==="radio",f="ui-state-hover"+(!e?" ui-state-active":"");if(c.label===null)c.label=this.buttonElement.html();if(this.element.is(":disabled"))c.disabled=true;this.buttonElement.addClass("ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all").attr("role","button").bind("mouseenter.button",function(){if(!c.disabled){b(this).addClass("ui-state-hover");

    I’m unable to add/save events, and certain page elements (presumably depending on some script), don’t show up. For now I’ve disabled ACF, but it’s essential to the site I’m building. Any help would be lovely. Thanks!

    I’m having the same or similar problem on a fresh install with ONLY the ACF plugin activated. Get a 404 – layout-style.css?ver=345-20111127″ and when I try and add a link on a page in the text editor (using link button):

    Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMHTMLDocument.execCommand].

    Version 3.2.5 ACF with WordPress 3.3.2

    Anyone still have some of these issues and found a solution? The ACF plugin seems to want a layout.css file? Help would be appreciated! I use ACF a LOT.
