Unable to Create Announcement 4.0.13.1

Featured Replies

Posted

I just installed 4.0.13.1 on my test site. I was running 3.4.8 and we had an existing announcement. The existing announcement showed up fine after the upgrade. I deleted it and now I want to create a new announcement, but the announcement edit box doesn't display. The only options I have are the media insertion options at the bottom. Here's a screenshot of the announcement dialog:

Is this a bug in 4.0.13.1 or have I configured things incorrectly? I followed the instructions in the guide here.

Have you tried clearing the cache for starters?

Does this only happen for the editor in announcements. Have had a couple of instances of this happening, but only from something i did, then reversed it.

Ie. Including javascipt site wide from another party killed it. Using some compressions killed it.

Yes. The only way I've found to clear the site cache is through the Support option. I have also cleared the browser cache.

Regular posts and threads seem fine.

Have you tried it using the default theme?

That's all I have.

I can't drag blocks from the Block Manager either. I get the drag cursor, but it just selects the text and doesn't drag the block. I've tried with Firefox 40.0.3 on Windows 7 and Mac OS 10.10.5. My IPS 4 experience isn't going well so far! :(

I had a very similar issue a while ago, for me it was a server issue. Ensure allow_url_fopen is on.

It is.

I upgraded with the same conditions and can't reproduce it as a bug in the software, must be something missing or maybe a bad skin edit? Did you alter the default skin?

Not since upgrading, although I had made some customizations to the default before upgrading. I am running cURL 7.35, so I'll try upgrading that. If that doesn't help, then perhaps I should just blow everything away and try again. Next time I'll revert the default skin to the original before attempting the upgrade.

Thanks for the replies everyone!

Top right under your display name - Drop down - ModeratorCP - (left side) Announcements.
