admin not working correctly

[Frank Vèssia]

Hi, I have a problem with the admin interface, at certain point the wiretabs stopped working, if I click on any tab I get nothing, so I can't open collapsed tabs. I tried to remove all installed modules, remove any custom css and jquery from the site, also export the entire site profile and import with a fresh install, but nothing...
I attached a picture for better understanding, you can see the down arrow icon is also attached to the label...
in some pages i get this jquery error: Uncaught ReferenceError: initPageEditForm is not defined.
any suggestion?

Which version? Any autoload modules? Hard reloads after removing modules / custom js?

[Frank Vèssia]

2.5.3. A couple of autoload modules. hard reload? I don't know this procedure

You really press hard the refesh.

From how it looks there's a problem with the form.

[Frank Vèssia]

ah ok, so yes, i tried hard reload...

[Mike Rockett]

Have you tried with any other versions?

[Frank Vèssia]

I tried with the dev, same story.

[apeisa]

Hard refresh, sorry. Basically F5 few times to make sure no local cache of css or js.

[Mike Rockett]

Depending on your browser, you can also try Ctrl+F5, or Ctrl+R (some browsers have both).

If you're using Chrome/Opera/Safari, open up developer tools (the console), go to settings, and make sure cache is off. Then leave it open and refresh the page.

If it's not that, then an alien has taken over your PC, and I wouldn't know what to do, I'm afraid.

[Frank Vèssia]

I'm sorry guys but it's not a question of cache...and I certainly didn't open a thread for asking how to refresh a page or empty the system cache

[Mike Rockett]

Perhaps you have a browser extension that's messing up your JS? (And the chances are, if it is, that there won't be a console log of it...)

[apeisa]

The error is on js/markup side, so there must be something interfering with that. Nastiest ones I have had was Google pagespeed Apache module breaking my javascript (not related to PW though).

It seems I have a similar problem. They just stopped working, and the content of the tabs is shown under the first tab content. On the console I get the following error :

JqueryWireTabs.js?v=105:13 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token )

I don't know what module is compressing the files in the admin so I can delete the cache of this file or see what's wrong.

Edit : because of this the modules page is not working at all. 

I also tried in different browsers, deleted browser cache etc and no change.

Edit 2: it has been fixed by itself, not sure why and how.

@Sevarf2: Could you take a look in the "console" and check if there's any error or warning?

[Frank Vèssia]

As i wrote before the only error i get is: Uncaught ReferenceError: initPageEditForm is not defined.

Anyway right now I solved installing the AdminThemeReno, therefore It was something related with the admin/modules cache which I was not able to delete in any usual way...strange thing, reactivating the default theme i get again the issue...

[Nico Knoll]

Okay. I'm glad you can at least use ProcessWire backend normally again now...

Btw.: Regarding the "Uncaught ReferenceError" - which file throws that error?

[flavy]

Are you using cloudflare cdn or any other cdn ? I'm not sure what was the issue on my website as it fixed by itself. I am sure they are related to some minify/cache of the js files on the backend as the frontend was not affected at all.
