Eg https in the backend and regular http on the front end. You can try to see What’s going wrong using the WordPress debug mode WP_DEBUG set to true in wp-config.php Then with Chrome Browser display the inspector activate its network tab and see the response content that admin-ajax.php is returning * Thread Starter [Asitha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asitha/) * (@asitha) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856014) * I’m using HTTPS on both the front and back end of the site. * I’ve turned on WP_DEBUG, but there aren’t any errors displayed that relate to the plugin. * Plugin Author [Mathieu Viet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imath/) * (@imath) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856017) * I think it’s the https thing.

In the file `wp-idea-stream/ includes/ideas/functions.php` at line 872 (see [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-idea-stream/trunk/includes/ideas/functions.php#L872](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-idea-stream/trunk/includes/ideas/functions.php#L872)), could you try to remove the `, 'relative'` part i’m using in the admin_url() function so that it will look like (once removed) : * `'ajaxurl' => admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ),` * If it’s fixing your issue, i’ll run a bunch of tests on multisite to see if no regressions and will include this fix in next version. * Thanks in advance for your help. * Thread Starter [Asitha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asitha/) * (@asitha) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856021) * Unfortunately that did not work either. I even tried to change it from ‘relative’ to ‘https’ which did not help either. * Plugin Author [Mathieu Viet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imath/) * (@imath) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856022) * That is amazing! * If you go in WP Admin > Medias are you able to use the new UI to fetch the medias, or are u able to edit a comment directly from WP DashBoard. In other words are you able to use AJAX in back end ? * Plugin Author [Mathieu Viet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imath/) * (@imath) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856023) * > I’ve turned on WP_DEBUG, but there aren’t any errors displayed that relate > to the plugin. * Having the network tab of the chrome inspector active ? * Thread Starter [Asitha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asitha/) * (@asitha) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856024) * Ajax works fine in the backend. I was able to fetch media etc from there. * As for the network tab in inspector, when I click to vote it shows admin-ajax being loaded each time I click it. Returns a status 200 OK. * Thread Starter [Asitha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asitha/) * (@asitha) * [11 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-vote-error-oops-something-went-wrong/#post-5856028) * Hi there, * Were you able to figure anything out on this?
