I don’t know what has happened, but I can’t edit Permalinks at all with the X Theme activated. I am attempting to either quick edit from the pages list or open the page and hit the edit button at the top. When I do that, it simply adds a # to the end of the URL (when I hit quick edit) or add #post_name to the end of the URL (when I hit edit in a particular page).

If I switch themes, I can edit the permalinks no problem. Thoughts? I deactivated all plugins and know that is not the issue. I also put a blank .htaccess file temporarily to see if something in there was causing an issue…it didn’t help either.

Thanks!

Hey Jason,

this is indeed an unique and uncommon problem so I can’t help you without getting your sites address and admin login credentials to take a look myself. Please don’t forget to set the reply as private so others can’t see the login details.

Hi Jason,

The error says :

“Uncaught ReferenceError: editPermalink is not defined”

This is wordpress builtin feature in which should pe available. But I can’t find any other issue that cause this except it doesn’t actually exist.

Could you try fresh install of 3.9 wordpress + new X theme to a sub directory nad post a link here? It could be corrupted installation.

Please provide ftp credentials too, I would like to test your X theme.

Let me know.

You rock! What’d ya do? I am going to transfer this site to a different domain and would like to be able to fix it if I run into it again.

Hi Jason,

There are some conflicting wordpress javascript and theme corrupted jquery. I have already fixed it, you just have to make sure nothing is corrupted and missing when you moved it to another hosting

If you have anymore questions please let us know

Cheers

Hi!

I’m experiencing a similiar issue. I cannot edit a permalink for a Post or a Page once it has been created. Clicking the edit button for the permalink doesn’t seem to do anything and I get the
Uncaught ReferenceError: editPermalink is not defined mydomainname.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1180&action=edit:328
Also, the Screen Options checkboxes don’t have any effect anymore. I cannot add or remove any of these options from the edit Post or edit Page screens.
Everything was working fine before…
I am using WP 3.9.1 (latest)
Theme: X – Child Theme: Integrity Light v. 1.0.0 based on Integrity Light (updated to 2.2)

I have re-downloaded a fresh copy of the x theme (parent) and replaced it on the server (version 2.2)
I have re-downloaded a fresh copy of WP 3.9.1 and replaced wp-admin and wp-includes folder

I have disabled all caching plugins, the Yoast SEO plugin, and most of the other plugins and nothing seems to solve the problem. It appears to be a JS conflict, although I’m not getting any JS errors in the console. The only error I see is the editPermalink is not defined when I click on the edit button for the permalink. There are no errors displayed when I try to change the Screen Options.
Turing WP_DEBUG to true did not reveal any errors, only notices.
I have added the following to my wp-config.php file:
/** Increase MemoryLimit */
define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’ );
define( ‘WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘512M’ );
define(‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true);
define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false );

Please help?

Greg

Hey Greg,

Please give us access to your WordPress admin and FTP so we could see the issues.

Thanks.

Hey Greg,

We recommend that you disable first all third party plugins to see if it fixes the problem. If not, please try to re-upload WordPress core files except your wp-config.php and wp-contents folder.

Thanks.

I have performed (again) all of the following:

– updated WP to the latest version (3.9.2)
– updated x theme to the latest version (2.3)
– updated x-shortcode plugin to the latest version (2.3.4)
– updated ALL other plugins to their latest version
– replaced core wp files using FTP (except wp-content and wp-config.php)
– deactivated ALL plugins, one at a time, checking at every step to see if that solved the edit permaling and screen options problem, but it didn’t. After ALL plugins are deactivated, the problem persists…

As mentioned previously, I have fixed one of the issues introduced by x theme version 2.2 where an api was no longer used and it broke my child theme. I have fixed this in the child theme of course.

I am at a loss at this point, to see what can be causing this, but it is a recent problem, that came around the time of the x-theme upgrade to 2.2. Can you take a look?
As previously mentioned in a previous entry in this thread (marked private) I have setup temporary admin and ftp access for you and provided the credentials.

Thanks,

Greg
