Slight Conflict with Woocommerce

    Using plugin ver. 4.5, and Woocommerce ver 2.6.14 (both at time of posting the latest versions of the plugins), there appears to be a problem on the ‘Edit Product Category’ admin page.

    The plugin appears to duplicate the ‘description’ box, so when you try to save changes none are saved – and the value is wiped from the database.

    A small issue but it seemed to happen alot – for now we’ve rolled back our plugin to a previous version. This is just to make the author/others aware that it appears to be a conflict between these two versions of Woocommerce and AAM

    Thank you lewisjames24,

    Looking into that issue. Will try to replicate it on my testing server.

    Thank you a lot!

    Confirming we have the same issue.

    Deactivating AAM removes the duplicated description box on the WooCommerce category edit page. (/wp-admin/term.php?taxonomy=product_cat&tag_ID=XXX&post_type=product).

    AAM Version 4.5
    WC Version 2.6.14
    WP Version 4.7.3

    I must admit it is a strange issue.

    It’s worth noting I’m running another site with a similar set up (not the same, but similar) – and that does’t have this issue. Instead underneath the ‘description’ box there is an AAM box (for premium users to change permissions I assume- we’re running the free version of AAM).

    On the site where the problem is occurring I do notice that initially the 2nd description box is called ‘access’, but then it switches to description.

    Hope this helps. I’ll email you with details.

    My guess is that because the ‘Access’ box you are adding has the same classes as the description box; that some WooCommerce Yoast SEO javascript is getting confused and modifying both…

    Application/Backend/phtml/term-metabox.phtml

    <tr class="form-field term-description-wrap">
    <th scope="row"><label for="description">Access</label></th>

    Probably the term-description-wrap class.

    Don’t think this has anything to do with WooCommerce; same thing happens on the Post category term edit page.

    Okay just did a fresh WordPress install. The problem is between AAM and Yoast:

    Should be easily fixed by changing the term-description-wrap class in term-metabox.phtml

    @vasyltech I’ve deleted your offer to login to your user’s site. I’m am 100% sure you mean well but please never ask for credentials on these forums.

    Now for the why: The internet is a wonderful place full of very nice people and a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some ones keys to your house you are trusting they wont steal anything. Likewise the person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.

    If something was to go wrong, then you the author may well legally become liable for damages, which they would not normally have been as their software is provided without warranty.

    Please be aware that repeatedly asking for credentials will result in us asking you to repeatedly stop before escalating up to the plugins team.
