Unable to edit page due to javascript error

Hi, thanks for reaching out.

If possible, please, could you open the browser console and take a screenshot of the error? You can upload screenshots to imgur.com or any similar sharing site like Dropbox and send the link.

Thanks again.

Thank you for your reply, Andrew.

In Chrome the console error is: Uncaught TypeError: $ is not a function

The script causing the error is:
<script type=”text/javascript”>$(“.loss”).click(function(e){$(“.button-main”).addClass(“less_space”);});</script>

I had added this script to the page by using the SiteOrigin Editor. I was able to edit this page using SiteOrigin Editor many times with this script included on the page. Recently, I started getting this js error that prevents me from editing the page using SiteOrigin Editor. In other words, this js error is a new issue but the script causing the error has been on the page for a long time.

Also, the page on the frontend does not have any js errors. Only on the backend (i.e. WordPress admin) do I get this js error.

The site is running these version:
Page Builder 2.14.0
Widgets Bundle 1.23.1
jQuery 3.6.0
jQuery Migrate 3.3.2

Thanks again

Thanks for the update. When able, please, try running a plugin conflict test. Temporarily deactivate all plugins except for:

Page Builder
Widgets Bundle
jQuery Migrate

Temporarily deactivate all but the above plugins. Does the JS error persist in this state?

(It sounds like something has changed…perhaps we can find the cause.)

Great suggestion, Andrew. The conflicting plugin that’s causing the issue is Duplicate Page version 4.4.4

To temporarily fix the issue, I downgraded that plugin to Duplicate Page version 4.4.1

@duplicatepagesupport mentioned that they’ll release an update soon. Once their update is release, I’ll check if it resolves my issue. Until then, I’ll use Duplicate Page version 4.4.1

Thank you for your excellent support, Andrew!
