MHS and Mozilla Firefox Problem

Post by cfmoran »

Does anyone else with a MHS website use Firefox as their browser? I'm asking because I'm encountering a problem where the Tracklist and Bonus fields have basically "disappeared" on me. Obviously, they're still there. However, I can't enter any text in the fields. I don't know if there's a plug-in that I'm missing since the last Firefox update. that isn't allowing me to enter text in the fields. Has anyone else encountered this? I entered a ticket a few weeks ago but haven't heard anything.

I use Firefox and i've been having the exact same problem for a few weeks too which also started after the latest Firefox update. I can enter info in EVERY field except for the tracklist & bonus ones. I emailed Caleb about it 3 weeks ago and he replied back that he was working on it (not sure if he meant working on just my site or all of MHS) and that it should've been finished last weekend but the problem is still there.

He did email me this quick fix until things are back to normal but I have'nt tried it yet.
In the meantime, you can turn off the WYSIWYG editor and use regular text boxes to type show information--simply go to "Manage Users" and click on the edit link next to your username, then select "No" for the WYSIWYG editor setting.
FWIW You can edit as normal with Google Chrome but I hate using that browser.

Thanks! I was wondering about Google Chrome this morning. I've been using Internet Explorer begrudgingly. I can't stand it!

Hopefully, Caleb will be able to fix it soon.

Some days ago I mailt Caleb, about the problems I also hade, here is his answer:

Hello JW,

This error is a result of a recent updates to Firefox and Internet
Explorer. I'm working on getting it fixed and should have it done around
the weekend. In the meantime, you can turn off the WYSIWYG editor and use
regular text boxes to type show information--simply go to "Manage Users"
and click on the edit link next to your username, then select "No" for
the WYSIWYG editor setting.

I'll let you know once the update has been made available.

Thanks,

Caleb

ps: I found out iff you click on the fields right below from setlist and comments the slidebar appears and you can fill in as normal.
