[Plugin: Widget Logic] WL 0.5.1 breaks site JavaScript on WP 3.3.1

(@hausinteractive)

Hi.

After upgrading our site to the newest everything all of our JavaScript stopped working. This included form submission, colorbox/thickbox, and the “add to cart” in our wp-e-commerce shop.

I know both WordPress 3.3.1 and wp-e-commerce 3.8.7.6.2 BYO quite a bit of JS which could be causing the conflict but everything started working again once we disabled Widget Logic.

Additionally, our server logs suggested Widget Logic as the culprit:

pushing the "add to cart" button:

there are 2 possibilities that i can think of, one is that your widget logic code uses functions that are not yet loaded (say functions defined in your theme’s functions.php. I’m working on a solution for that.

the other is that your widget logic code has changed a little. the “unexpected ‘)’ ” message does make it sound like it’s worth checking your WL code for accidental changes, like an extra bracket somewhere.

Thanks alanft,

Our developer reported that “…some of the code I was using was copied and pasted from some WP forums that may or may not have been written correctly to last through an update.”

I think he’s going to remove it and run a few tests.

Will report back when we know how they went.

Cheers.

Here is the list of WL locations used. The ones at the bottom have line breaks between them for readability (both here as well as in the *actual* config used on the site, for the same reason).

!is_page(‘membership’)
is_page(‘photos’)
is_page(‘mothering’)
is_page(‘about’)
is_page(‘faq’)
is_page(‘community’)
is_page(‘aboutjane’)
is_page(‘philosophy’)
is_page(‘trying’)
is_page(‘blog’)
is_page(‘membership’)
is_page(‘materials’)
is_page(‘contact’)
is_page(‘thinking’)
is_page(‘renew’)
is_page(‘paypalbutton’)
is_page(‘newsletter’)
is_page(‘smc-questions’)
is_page(‘about’)

is_home()

is_single() || is_home() || !is_(‘products-page’) || !($post->post_parent==’products-page’));

is_page(‘information’) || is_page(‘registration’) || is_page(‘the-agenda’) || is_page(‘hotel-information’) || is_page(‘childcare-options’) || is_page(‘sponsorship-opportunities’)

is_page(‘post-celebration’) || is_page(‘celebration-photos’)

global $post; return (is_page(‘products-page’) || ($post->post_parent==”products-page”));

is_home() || is_single() || is_archive()

is_home() || is_single() || is_archive()

is_single() || is_home() || !is_('products-page') || !($post->post_parent=='products-page'));

has an extra bracket on the end if that’s any help
