The problem is with the new prototype and scriptaculous being bundled with WP 3.0.4.

I did some digging around and found that WP 2.3 used to come bundled with Prototype 1.5.1, and script.aculo.us 1.7.1 beta 2. So I downloaded these specific versions of prototype.js, scriptaculous.js, dragdrop.js and effects.js. I then commented out this line:
//wp_enqueue_script('scriptaculous-dragdrop');
and replaced it with:

1.
      wp_enqueue_script( 'pro', 'yourURL/wp-content/plugins/ozh-who-sees-ads/js/prototype.js');
   2.
      wp_enqueue_script( 'scrp', 'yourURL/wp-content/plugins/ozh-who-sees-ads/js/scriptaculous.js' );
   3.
      wp_enqueue_script( 'ef', 'yourURL/wp-content/plugins/ozh-who-sees-ads/js/effects.js' );
   4.
      wp_enqueue_script( 'drgdr', 'yourURL/wp-content/plugins/ozh-who-sees-ads/js/dragdrop.js' );

With this change, everything is working like the good old days :). I know that my method could be better as I shouldn’t reference direct links to local files, but I’m sure someone smarter than me can fix that. Just wanted to post to let people know how to get this great plugin working with WP 3.0.4 ??

Cheers

Yes they are. What’s weird though is that auto update works fine on 2.9 and lower installs on the server even now. So unless 3.04 changed something drastically, it couldn’t really be permissions/server setting related. I have no idea what changes were made to the auto plug-in update system, so I don’t really know what could be causing it or where to start looking.

I did de-activate all plugins, reset the directory and try twenty-ten but with no luck.

Any ideas anyone?

I’m running PHP Version 5.2.14. Let me know if you’d like any specific info from phpinfo. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Esmi,

I tried all those things and with no luck. None of these helped fix the issue. Plugin update page still remains stuck at “Downloading update” state even though the plugin is being downloaded and unpacked on the server in the background.

And this is on an installation which had automatic plugin upgrade working with 2.9.2 a couple of hours back.

Simply amazing esmi!! Thanks so very much! Works like a charm. If I can venture a guess…does this prevent WP from appending all scripts into one group this breaking multiple scripts if one of them has a problem?

Thanks again esmi. This is what I love about WordPress and the community! ??

Thanks esmi. I will try that. This is on a live site that has quite a bit of traffic so I’m a little weary about messing with things. I’ve also been having issues with auto plugin updates via wordpress hanging on me and creating issues. 3.0.4 seems to have brought a whole set of headaches along with it ??

I have to say that I’m having the same issue with 3.0.4. I tried both in Chrome and FF and it doesn’t work in either. Anyone know how to fix this? I can’t publish anything till I get this sorted out.

PS – I can work around this for now using the Quick-Edit feature and typing out the slug myself. Anyone have any clue as to why this isn’t working though? I checked my wp-admin folder and I have all the js files and they all have 644 permission.

You can also use a plugin like pagemash to easily and visually change the page order/hierarchy.

Oops, sorry. It is released under GPL 3, and there is a note of this in the style.css file (along with the required disclaimer for GPL 3).
