Widgets freeze in twenty twelve

Hi there,
which version of the plugin and WordPress are you running?
Please update if you are not running latest versions.
The problem you described is similar to an issue that was fixed a few months ago.

Thanks Marco

It is the latest version of WordPress and twenty-twelve, a new site last week – Black Studio TinyMCE Widget is version 1.1.1 – all fully up-to-date.

Website is in the process of construction – I will disable all plugins just to see if there is a conflict… will report back.

Okay,

Disabled all plugins: widgets worked ok (not frozen)

Activated Studio TinyMCE Widget : okay

Activated other plugins in this order:

Cookie control
Custom post templates
Lightbox gallery

Those three are okay

But … Nextend Image Magnifier … caused the problem

So I disable it, to test out the last plugin, TinyMCE Advanced…. which was okay.

I presume I can disable to the Nextend plugin while I work on the widgets, then activate it again – it shouldn’t cause any problems?

I created a test widget with TinyMCE, activated Nextend, and the test widget appeared okay.

I created a test widget with TinyMCE, activated Nextend, and the test widget appeared okay.

Meaning, all the widgets were froze, but the data in the TinyMCE wiget appeared okay in the front end of the website.

After reading your posts, I’ve made some further investigation and I noticed the problem is generated by a code inserted by the Nextend Image Magnifier plugin.
I will contact the author of that plugin in order to report the problem.

In the meantime you may use the following fix.

In file nextend-image-magnifier.php
find the line (almost at the end of file)
if(QTags){
and then change it to
if(typeof QTags != "undefined"){

Also, a few lines below, find
}else if(edButton){
and change to
}else if(typeof edButton != "undefined"){

Thank you very much, really appreciate your help

Brilliant, now well and truly FIXED!

Thanks

jennifer55,

Did you have the same isslue as I did?

See my video

The problem of frozen widgets usually depends on javascript errors generated by some script, which may come from several different sources (plugins, themes and WP core too). The first step to resolve this kind of issue is to detect which script casuses the javascript error (the browser’s javascript error console is helpful for that).
