Cannot access option pages

What version of WordPress are you using?

We us WordPress 3.8.1

I uploaded a new version 1.1 with the dropdown code rewritten. Please try it and see if it solves your problem.

Unfortunately the same behavior. Still not able to access Options (1.1 is installed)

Interesting. The new version uses 100% jQuery for toggling the options. Could you report on your installed version of jQuery and verify that it hasn’t been disabled for the admin panel?

Additionally, disable all other plugins and admin themes and see if CSSable Countdown works. If it does, one-by-one enable the other plugins until the options dropdown doesn’t work, then tell me which plugin it is and I’ll go have a peek at that plugin (assuming it’s on the repository).

I will do so. Just on question. Can you tell me how to check which version of jQuery I have installed and if its not disabled?

Quick and dirty way is to open your admin panel and in your browser window go to View > Source (depends on which browser you have, but all browsers have a View Source option in the menus somewhere). You should see something like:

<script type='text/javascript' src='[YOUR URL]/wp-admin/load-scripts.php?c=1&load%5B%5D=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils&ver=3.8.1'></script>

If your browser supports it, click the link, otherwise copy-and-paste that link into your browser window. You’ll see something like this:

/*! jQuery v1.10.2 | (c) 2005, 2013 jQuery Foundation, Inc. | jquery.org/license

That’s the version of jQuery that your admin panel is running.

Bit convoluted, I know. Sorry :/

1.1 has stopped simple shortcode displaying. it was working earlier with 1.0

Errors:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) ****/wp-content/plugins/cssable-countdown/js/kw-jquery.countdown-1.6.3.js?ver=1.0

Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method ‘countdown’ (index):401

It shows me:

/*!
* jQuery JavaScript Library v2.1.0
* https://jquery.com/

OK, disabled all plugins and changed to twenty fourteen theme but I’m still not able to access the options dropdowns

Both of you, please download version 1.2 and functionality should be restored. The javascript files weren’t in the right location in the SVN depository in 1.1, apparently. I apologize, I suck at SVN ??

Hi
Thanks a lot. Now everything is working fine.

Yay! Thank you for the bug-finding help!
