Expand section not working

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

Expand section not working

Post by elf »

Hi! I just installed 1.10.3 to try out if CMSMS could be the right CMS for me. I installed the sample content and went straight to Content->pages to find out that the "Expand Section" selection for showing subpages is not working. It works when Javascript is turned off but not when it's on. I tested it with the latest major browsers and the same thing happened (or not happened to be precise).

You are first to report this. You are sure JavaScript is on in your Browser?
And you do use original Admin themes?

After installation (which went fine) I went straight to the Content and found this behavior. I didn't do a thing before that. After that I tried adding a page and a subpage for it but the same thing happened with those.

And I'm sure about JS too. For example I unchecked the Enable Javascript in Firefox menu and reloaded the page and expanding and collapsing sections worked after that. I enabled Javascript again and reloaded the page and again not working. The same thing happened with other browsers in which I have not even installed any plugins or such. I have no trouble running Javascript in general.

It's weird if nobody have experienced similar behavior. I just downloaded the CMS, installed with no errors, everything is working except that. Javascript engines are in the browsers so there should not be different behavior with different users of the major browsers.

I've seen this on servers before, it has to do with the server not the browser, I was able to get the expand to work by clicking it then wait, then refresh the page and it expanded...

add the following line to your config.php. I had some problems with the admin-section, but this did the trick.

Code: Select all

ini_set('max_execution_time', 120);

I have the same problem. Using CMSMS 1.10.3. When I disable Javascript in Safari, the Expand and Collapse click is working (also the click on the arrow icons). When Javascript is enabled (default) it is NOT working.

I tried settings the execution time limit to 120 as shown above with no effect (it was 600 before).

I have some more information though. It is working when I use std. HTTP access for all admin pages. But when I switch to HTTPS, everything works but those Expand clicks (again when Javascript is disabled, even with HTTPS the Expand clicks work). I'm using a shared SSL certificate from my hosting provider Arvixe for HTTPS. This is a little unusual since the URL is something like "https://domain/~username/admin/... and not just "https://domain/admin/...
