    I have used Post Thumbnail Editor without issue for the past 6 months or so on version 2.0.0. Today I tried to upgrade to the latest version 2.1.0, and when I did, the “Post Thumbnail Editor” link didn’t appear where it usually does (or anywhere that I can find).

    I usually access it via the media display pane, as shown in this screen cap:

    Since upgrading, the “Post Thumbnail Editor” link is simply gone. I downgraded back to 2.0.0 (after trying 2.0.1. and having the same issue) and now the link appears again. I tried clearing my cache, logging in and out of WordPress, using a different browser, no avail.

    So for you, 2.0.0 works, but 2.1.0 doesn’t? Are they both broken now?

    Which browser are you using? What version of wordpress?

    Using chrome or firefox, could you open the javascript console (ctrl+shift+j) and see if any errors occur?

    2.0.0 works, but 2.1.0 doesn’t, that is correct. 2.0.1 also does not work. If I revert to the old 2.0.0 version that one works fine.

    WordPress 3.5.1. Tested this out on both Chrome and Firefox.

    Here is a screen cap of what I see in 2.1.0 (compare to the screen cap above, no “Post Thumbnail Editor” text is shown):

    The following shows up in the Javascript console: “Uncaught ReferenceError: pteL10n is not defined”

    Not being able to get the pteL10n is definitely the problem… Now we have to figure out what’s causing it. I’m inclined to think that it’s a conflict with another plugin, so the quickest way to check is to disable all other plugins and see if that fixes the problem.

    • If that does fix it, re-enable plugins one at a time until you find which plugin is causing the problem. Then I can install that plugin and fix the conflict.
    • If that doesn’t fix it, I would ask you to view the page source and investigate the <head> section. You should find something like this: 
      <script type='text/javascript'>
/* <![CDATA[ */
var pteL10n = {"PTE":"Post Thumbnail Editor","url":"http:\/\/wordpress\/wp-admin\/upload.php?page=pte-edit&pte-id=<%= id %>"};
/* ]]> */
</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://wordpress/wp-content/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/apps/coffee-script.js?ver=2.2.0-alpha'></script>

    It might also help to configure WP_DEBUG in wp-config.php

    It seems as if version 2.1.0 is working fine now. I haven’t changed a thing on my install. The Javascript console does not show any errors right now. Not sure what to say… I’ll post here again if the issue returns.
