Media Library Broken

    After updating to WordPress 4.5, the only issue I’ve noticed so far is that my media library does not show up at all when I click it in the dashboard. When I create a new blog post and go to attach a featured image the media library does show. The only problem is that when I attach a image, there is no way to get back to the website unless you hit the back button on the browser. Once I hit the back button the images do not show up.

    I use the avada plugin which uses fusion page builder for creating blog posts. This button that allows you to use this feature in the wordpress post editor isn’t working either. There is a box in the top right as well that says “Publish” with different button underneath it. Pretty much none of these work except the “save draft” and “preview” button. The other options like status, visibility, publish immediately, and publicize do not work when you click on them.

    I am also having issues with the Media Library after updating to WP 4.5.
    Clicking on the “Add Media” button in the page editing window does nothing. Going to the Media Library gives me an empty page where I should see the thumbnails of media.
    I was able to upload an image using “Add Media” but it’s not visible in the Media Library either.

    I have several installations of WP, the ones I have not updated to 4.5 are fine. Just the ones I’ve updated have disappeared the media.

    My issue was due to the Custom Facebook Feed plugin. They have issued an update for that plugin and installing that put the Media Library back online.

    Here’s the changelog for Custom Facebook Feed
    2.4.1.1

    Fix: Fixed a JavaScript error in the admin area when using WordPress 4.5

    Well that solved the issue for one of my WP installs but I have another that still doesn’t allow me to Add Media (although this one lets me see the media thumbnails) Will need to check out all the plug ins I guess.

    I’ll have to try messing with that. I use custom Facebook feed as well.

    I don’t know if this is relevant but post.php is throwing this error:

    syntax error unrecognized expression href=#acc-1

    I use the avada plugin which uses fusion page builder for creating blog posts.

    Are you on the latest and greatest version of that plugin and your theme? If not, please upgrade right away.

    @neilrmckay – You have a different issue because of this:

    syntax error unrecognized expression href=#acc-1

    Yes that is very relevant. Re-apply your upgrade manually, disable your plugins and theme (switch to Twenty Sixteen) and test again.

    Further investigation shows that on the “edit post” page, besides the “Add Media” button not working, the “edit” button for the permalink does not respond and neither does the “XpertAccordian” button above the wysiwyg editing window.

    AND… I can’t toggle from the Visual tab to the Text tab in the editing window.

    Formatting buttons (bold, italic, etc) work fine.

    So I think it’s not the Media tool per se, but the javascript buttons.

    And XpertAccordian is not a default WP button.

    What plugin is that from?

    It’s a premium plugin.
    I just disabled it and guess what…my buttons work now.

    I’ll add it to the master list as known misbehaving ?? Thanks!

    Disabling custom facebook feed fixed my issue temporarily. I contacted smashballoon (creators of that plugin) and they told me the following:

    Hey Jgold,

    I’m sorry you are having these issues.

    Let’s try a quick fix first. We’ve updated the Javascript files from our plugin so there is a chance your browser’s cache is not using the new one and have the old one cached. Please make a hard clear cache form it or try using it in a new browser or PC.

    Let me know the outcome so we can investigate further.

    I cleared my cache out and everything works fine now with all my plugins enabled.

    @neilrmckay

    I was having the same issue with Xpertaccordian.

    I have fixed the issue by editing wp-content/plugins/xpert-accordion/assets/js/app.js and app.min.js

    The piece of code that needs changing is on line 35 of app.js

    $template.find('[href=#acc-1]').attr('href', '#' + newId);

    Should become:

    $template.find('[href="#acc-1"]').attr('href', '#' + newId);

    And the same in app.min.js

    (Probably only need to change app.min.js but change both to be on the safe side!)

    Make sure to clear your cache after the fix.

    I am having a problem with genesis featured post plugin since 4.5 random images have been replaced on my home page where it is being used. But when you click to open the post the images are correct! My theme uses widget areas for the home page and this is the way I populate it. Any hlp or estimate on ehen this will be addressed? Wouls it be wp or the plugin that I need to alert? I use a third party theme based on Genesis.
