Post Tags not working

  • Hello,

    I have an issue with a WordPress 2.8.2 installation. The Post Tags section of the Edit post area will not work. It will not accept any type of input. I ahve tried re-installing, upgrading, and even copying all the files over to the server from a brand new package. Nothing will fix this issue. I have cleared my cache and even installed updated version of the JQuery library and that will not work either. I have tried de-activating all plugins and it still will not work. It seems that I cannot expand/collapse any of the panels on the edit post page either like I used to be able to, which tells me that it is probably a Javascript issue. I have tried using several browsers and they all fuction the same, Post Tags does not work.

    Can anyone help? It seems like there are more people out there having this issue but none of them have posted a consistent solution. See the URL below for a screenshot of the Javascript error.

    Why does everyone else get answers to their problems, but mine goes totally ignored…? This is rediculous.

    *bump again..*

    Why does everyone else on these forums get support except for me?

    For the sake of testing..

    Have you tried another browser?
    Have you tried replacing that file with a fresh copy?

    Questions can only be answered if you know the answer…

    I’ve not seen your problem before so i have only suggestions.

    Bear in mind this forum is supported primarily by other WordPress users, so you can’t honestly expect solutions to every problem, that’s just how it is…

    Yes, I’ve tried other browsers and replacing the files. I’ve downgraded and upgraded and re-installed with no avail.

    So on a fresh installation with no additional plugins you get this problem?

    Having exactly the same problem mate (amongst others) Any WordPress gurus out there can help?

    Cheers!

    I’m using Mozilla Firefox and have the same problem. This is – from two days it became annoying and ridiculous. Any help out there?
    Thanks

    I am having the exact same problem. I am seeing a lot of warnings similar to “Unknown property ‘border radius’. Declaration dropped.” in the Firefox error console. Also tried IE 8 and Chrome.

    These errors seem to be related to the load-styles.php in wp-admin.

    I should also note that I cannot use the ‘Add new category’ link in the post page either. Editing a picture’s properties by clicking on it no longer works as well. These may be related, but I am not sure.

    I installed a number of plugins last night and I suspect that one of them tweaked the post tags. I do know also that the coding of your template will affect plugins working or not.

    If you install more than one tag plugin you will likely experience some conflicts.

    Always best to install one and test to see how your site reacted to it.

    I also just realized my global translator is not working but getting a 404 error so I need to find the plugin bugger that is giving me these problems.

    Good idea to always backup your db before installing or upgrading or keep some kind of a progress chart so you can “roll back”.

    PS: They were a bunch of SEO plugins. You want to get the best SEO possible but how many plugins do you really need to do it right?

    I believe I have the same problem with only one of my blogs; I have three. I thought I fixed it by reinstalling older versions until I found one that worked (ver 2.8.4) then upgraded to ver 2.9, but it has stopped working again. I cannot add tags to new or edited post. Plus I cannot add images. Again one site works great, one site does not.

    So this leads me to believe that something has gotten corrupted on the site that is not working, and what ever caused the corruption exist within content, posts, images or database so that he causes problem again even once fixed.

    The only way I can add tags is in quick edit, after publishing post.

    Continuing my research I came across this

    Deactivate all plugins and try again.

    If your index.php doesn’t provide for tag display use the Template Tag, the_tags().

    So even though I thought I at done it before I deactivated all plugins AND IT NOW WORKS I CAN TAG AND ADD IMAGES. Now I need to figure out which plugin is causing problem.
