[Plugin: WP Ajax Edit Comments] v1.1.5.1 jQuery 1.4.1 MSIE Issue

Wowsers, that is an old version. Brings back memories of me being picked on at the playground.

Try this version of the JS file and see if it works.

If it doesn’t, revert to the old version and leave a post where I can leave a test comment.

Wonderful to hear from you ronalfy — I’ve updated the file (though think it’s the same as the version I was using previously in v1.1.5.1 as the ‘last modified’ date matches).

Alas, I’m still getting this hiccup. I’ve re-enabled everything so that you can have a look for yourself to see if anything jumps out at you. [A POST YOU CAN TEST ON]

Thanks again for the brainpower!

Try this:

Revert back to 1.1.5.1 (no modified files).

Go into the main plugin file (wp-ajax-edit-comments.php) and edit out line 408
wp_register_script('jquery', get_bloginfo('wpurl') . '/wp-content/plugins/wp-ajax-edit-comments/js-includes/jquery.js');

In your theme, there are two references to jQuery:
https://travelogue.travelvice.com/wp-content/themes/travelogue-2008/jquery-scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js
and
https://travelogue.travelvice.com/wp-content/themes/travelogue-2008/jquery-scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js?ver=6124

What you want to do is remove both of those references from your header.php file and instead use the wp_enqueue_script function prior to the wp_head() call (also in header.php).

Would look like this:

wp_deregister_script('jquery'); //Removes WP's jQuery version
wp_enqueue_script('jquery','https://travelogue.travelvice.com/wp-content/themes/travelogue-2008/jquery-scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js',array(),'1.4.1'); //Loads your own
wp_head(); //Shown for display purposes only

I have a feeling doing that will resolve the issue.

Howdy, thanks for your efforts!

You should know that already in my header I’ve got this in place before the call to wp_head:

<?php
if ( !is_admin() ) // using a newer version of jQuery will break stuff in WP admin
{
  wp_deregister_script('jquery');
  wp_enqueue_script('jQuery', 'https://travelogue.travelvice.com/wp-content/themes/travelogue-2008/jquery-scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js');
}
?>

v1.5.1.1 should be what you tested on already, without any modifications.

Edit Comments is the script that’s placing the “?ver=6124” on the end of the script call.

***

I went ahead and implemented the new wp_enqueue_script block and things appear to be working wonderfully (confirmed in MSIE8 & Chrome)! Perhaps my attempt to unregister WP’s jQuery wasn’t working properly.

ronalfy — You’ve been a great help. I certainly appreciate your time this evening. Thank you.
