Carbon Fields Rich Text broken in WP 3.9

  • Hi guys,

    Looks like the Carbon Fields “Rich Text” doesn’t work anymore when using WordPress 3.9.
    In the Firebug console, I get the following message: *Carbon Error:* Couldn’t render a field: tinyMCE.getInstanceById is not a function

    Anything to do?
    Thanks a lot!

  • Hi Matt,

    Did you ever find a solution to this? I see a similar error for type Rich_Text on Chrome Console:

    *Carbon Error:* Couldn’t render a field: undefined is not a function

    I also get this alert when I click update after changing one of Carbon fields:

    “The changes you made will be lost if you navigate away from this page.
    Are you sure you want to leave this page?”

    If I select “Leave this page”, it updates the page/post. If I select “Stay on this page”, it does not save the changes. It gets stuck spinning like it is updating, but it never does.

    Any thoughts?

    Hi nihandarst,

    Unfortunately, I’ve not been able to fix this. I tried to adjust some JS calls, but it was not enough (and my JS knowledge might not be sufficient…).

    What I did is that I “created” the box with the extra fields manually, in my functions.php file.
    Here is the tuto I followed: https://www.farinspace.com/how-to-create-custom-wordpress-meta-box/

    In case anybody finds something, let us know!

    Hello @matt and @nihandarst,

    This is a known issue that was immediately fixed once WordPress 3.9 was released 10 months ago.

    Here is a link to diff file, containing the fix that addresses both issues that you’ve reported:

    Good luck!
