Hi. I've seen since I updated to latest version that often when I try to edit a field in administrator, I get issues. The options to edit does not load, wrong type of options are loaded and I'm sometimes given a message that I am not permitted to access that page.
I've tried reinstalling seblod, deleting cache, even tried installing a new browser to make sure that it's not cache related. And the problem is there.
How can I go about gathering meaningful data about this that you could have a look at to see if it's a bug at play?
For the start try to find out exactly when does this happen and what kind of errors do you get - look in the php & apache logs and javascript console in the browser.Also - did you update all add-on plugins and templates when you updated?
I checked console, and found that it's an issue with mootools. The problem arrises each time I try to open for instance tab 4 in the form setup to check access + restriction settings. If I manage to open this the first time (often it's just a blank popup) and then go to open something else that's managed through the popup, often the last thing I viewed is shown instead.
So this behavior happens every time:
I check tab 5, conditional states. I can see the settings (some times). After closing the popup I can try to for instance just edit the field, and then I get a blank popup or a popup showing the conditional states instead. And vice versa. I see the first popup for all popups afterwards.
BUT. This behavior is irregular. Sometimes I do get the new popup content.
VM1497:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token : at Object.f.exec (VM1454 mootools-core.js:28) at Object.success (VM1454 mootools-core.js:168) at Object.e.extend.$owner (VM1454 mootools-core.js:38) at Object.onStateChange (VM1454 mootools-core.js:159) at Object.e.extend.$owner (VM1454 mootools-core.js:38)
I found an older post in the forum which I see to be about the same issue. I will try to get mootools not to be loaded, to see if the problem goes away.

After disabling mootools, it started working. But I've got jquery errors in the console. Now the close button when editing fields is not working.. :(
I do not understand why this suddenly happens. Everything is up to date.
I did install a fresh copy of Joomla 3.9, along with the latest of Seblod. I then downloaded the app that's got issues and installed it on this fresh install as well. And it works. There are no error messages.
I'm a bit confused as to why this is happening. Even if I reinstall Joomla and Seblod on the other site, the problem perssists.
Any suggestions?
I found the reason for the issue. And I belive it's not related to Seblod at all.
I've installed a plugin from web357. It's a cookie notification plugin. All the developers plugins needs a common web357 framework plugin installed. As soon as I disable this plugin it works like it should again.
Thanks for trying, klas. Posting the "solution" here since this also could happen to others. Would be nice to see a suggested solution before wasting hours trying to figure out what's the issue. :)
Hi Kenneth,
Yes, i confirmed. And what's strange is that their extensions seems to work without web357 framework plugin and I don't know why it's loaded on administration side for all extensions...
Thanks.
That's what I figured out as well. I'm chatting with the developer in regards to solving this, as his cookie notification plugin probably is the best one for Joomla, I think it's worth getting solved.
I good your Problem as well, because of using the extension "Switch editor" from Anything Digital. Seems checking other third party extension is a good approach in this case. Thanks Kenneth for sharing.
