Blog Comment Control Not Working

Posted by Community Admin on 07-Jun-2011 00:00

On my current Sitefinity instance, I've set up a blog, created a template for the layout, and set a blog posts widget on the page. Additionally, I've modified the template of the blog posts widget a bit. It all displays fine when I go to the page with the blog posts listing. However, when I go to an individual blog post page, the comments rich text area is not functioning correctly. It often does not show the white background, allow users to enter input, and the formatting bar does not displaying correctly. Here's the template I'm using:

<%@ Control Language="C#" %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="sf" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.ContentUI" Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="sf" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.Comments" Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="sf" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI" Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="sf" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.PublicControls.BrowseAndEdit" Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" %>

<%@ Register TagPrefix="telerik" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" %>

<%@ Import Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity" %>

<telerik:RadListView ID="Repeater" ItemPlaceholderID="ItemsContainer" runat="server" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" EnableEmbeddedBaseStylesheet="false">

<ul class="sfpostsList sfpostListTitleDateSummary">

</ul>

</LayoutTemplate>

<ItemTemplate>

<sf:PersonProfileView runat="server" />

</div>

It may also be worth noting, I'm getting the following JavaScript errors:

b._events is undefined

(function()var t="MicrosoftAjax",f=-1...a]=b);if(!e&&d[a.src])if(c)c()else

jQuery("#" + this._deleteOperationsContainerID).clickMenu is not a function

,_attach_clickmenu:function()jQuery(...teOperationsContainerID).clickMenu();

Hello Brett,

Do you use some custom scripts on the page or have you changed the initial version of jQuery. From the error it looks like that there is some js conflict and some of the objects could not be found.

You can see if there are custom scripts loaded using FireBug or another tool like fiddler web debugger.

Ivan,
Yes I am using custom scripts on the page. I'm importing jQuery using the following method:

<sf:ResourceLinks ID="resourcesLinks" runat="server">

<sf:ResourceFile JavaScriptLibrary="JQuery" />

</sf:ResourceLinks>

And including all of my scripts right before the close of the form tag in my master page used for the template as indicated should be done by another member of the Telerik team like so:

<script src="/js/jquery.tools.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="/js/global.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

jQuery(document).ready(function ()

jQuery(".sfTagsList").each(function (index, item) $(item).find("li:last-child").addClass('last'); )

);

</script>

These are all needed on the page. Is there something else I need to be doing with the imports?

Hello Brett,

I suppose that the problem is related to

<script src="/js/jquery.tools.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="/js/global.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

if you remove them do you get errors.

The js you use does not requires jquery tools. I am not sure what is the purpose for the second script.
We also have jquery tools that you can reference from Telerik.Sitefinity.Resources.Scripts.jquery.a-tools-1.5.2.min.js. It is possible that there is version conflict.

Kind regards,
