In reply to: can’t drag widgets to sidebarForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Can’t Move or Edit Sidebar WidgetsI used to have the same problem, and it is fixed now. One of the fellow bloggers suggested to re-upload get a new 3.2.3 zip file and uploaded to the server. I actually downloaded *.tar.gz version, and followed suggested steps:
- disabled all widgets on the site
- unzipped he new tar.gz file to a temporary directory
- deleted wp-admin, and wp-include from the server
- uploaded all files from the temporary directory to the server
- enabled all widgets on the site
- DONE…You should be able to add, remove and setup the widgets on the sidebar.
I did this to two of my sites (one upgraded from 2.3 – had the same issue, second already upgraded to 2.3.2) and both behave as expected.
This one was a very first experience with a site having problems due to the upload. I’m still going to compare content of *.zip and *.tar.gz to see if they are the same, or … 🙂Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Installed new 2.3.2 and … problems …Kirk –
I did as you recommended and it … worked!
I am SO happy! I have not idea what was wrong with the other file. This time I used the linix version *.tar.gz (last time it was *.zip)
I guess, the mystery has been solved. I don’t know how one tags this thread as [solved]. I know that there are other threads that deal with the exact problem.
BTW, my installation was NEW (no upgrades).Thank you Kirk.

In reply to: Sidebar widgets doesn’t workAJAX interface.js code is broken (seems, since 2.3.1) and ain’t gona work (it seems) since nobody from the development group is interested in fixing it – they are busy working on 2.4 version, which removes the drag-and-drop bs (thank you very much). I wish they could come up with a temporary fix for the 2.3.2 folks.

In reply to: Drag & Drop Template Tag/Widget Breaks designNot true. I installed 2.3.2 from scratch, used NO plug-ins and the default theme – still have the problem.
Hedi,
It is not just you. It is buggy WordPress, and it also effects Windows users. Try beta 2.4.x (need to use svn repository) – it works for me.Forum: Requests and Feedback
In reply to: Installed new 2.3.2 and … problems …Well, my solution was to test 2.4x beta and .. no problems there. 2.3.2 is buggy. the widget drag-and-drop does NOT work due to the interface.js and jQuery.js incompatibility. I noticed that there is no ture source code for interface.js (the Romanian guy who wrote it does not release uncompressed version), and this surprise the heck out of me – why would open source folks used code that cannot be debugged? Yes, AJAX is sexy, but it has to work, and this one does not.
BTW, all of the “bs” about ISP’s blocking. using mod_security is just that. The source code is running and crapping out inside the existing javascript programs.
I am still waiting for a new version, but my patience is running out, and am I thinking to move to something else (with great regret to be sure).Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: 2.3.2 sidebar widgets not workingOtto42,
I did disable it on my domain and … no cygar. The thing is still not working ..
This is what I used to acomplish it in .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>Any other ideas?

In reply to: Unable to use widgets/sidebarWell, it effects EVERYBODY that installed new version (2.3.2) from scratch. It simply was NEVER EVER tested as it should have been.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Widgets don’t drag and drop :)Well, I am convinced that the problem IS in the interface.js / JQuery.js / widget.php combo. Obviously NOBODY bother(s,ed) to test the WHOLE package before they release it to the public. Telling somebody to disable / enable plug-ins, themes , underwear just doesn’t make sense and only emencly annoys folks like me. The BUG IS and HAS BEEN in WordPress since 2.2.x release, but nobody ever address it.
BTW, even loading this page triggers error message.It is SO amateurish. Same people bitch about Microsoft’s software, and yet I have yet to experience that much bs, as I do with MANY opensource crap.

In reply to: Actually running version 2.0.5 want to upgrade to 2.3.2…Don’t!. If it works don’t bother. I just installed the newest 2.3.2 and it is broken. I can’t enable widges (drag and drop) in the presentation / widget menu. jquery is broken, and … it seems that it’s been broken for a while. If you stay with the old version, at least you will have a working site.
I’m getting the feeling that wordpress is not one of the most reliable blog software. Yes, the themes are wonderful, but with a lot of “bleeding edge” programing solutions not being properly tested, what’s the point…
