Issue in advanced category settings

Contribute Bug

Hello,

I noticed a bug in the advanced category settings: changes can only be saved in the general settings.

Do you have the same issue? For your information, I have updated Discourse.

Hmm… I edited settings in the Settings, General and Appearance tabs and every time, I could save changes, and it persisted after reloads.

Does this occur in safe mode?

Yes, you’re right, it works without failure. I must have an issue with a plugin. I recently installed Custom Wizard, so I need to check that. Thanks for reminding me about the ‘without failure’ function.

I took a look, and actually, I can’t save the custom location settings in the event sorting wizard. Ah, I’ve discovered the Custom Wizard, and it’s a really great location feature. I’m going to run into an issue with usage :rofl:

I don’t know how to interpret these error messages

  1. Other

    1. Incorrect use of

      1. The label’s for attribute doesn’t match any element id. This might prevent the browser from correctly autofilling the form and accessibility tools from working correctly.

        To fix this issue, make sure the label’s for attribute references the correct id of a form field.

    2. An element doesn’t have an autocomplete attribute

      1. A form field has an id or name attribute that the browser’s autofill recognizes. However, it doesn’t have an autocomplete attribute assigned. This might prevent the browser from correctly autofilling the form.

        To fix this issue, provide an autocomplete attribute.

I don’t see how to resolve this issue

I don’t know if I’m the only one in this situation

These should be unrelated. Does disabling the plugin fix the original problem? If so, perhaps you should report it in the plugin’s topic.

Not always the same issue after analysis

Here, even node violations in safe mode, although I’m not a pro either

Sorry, I don’t have context here :sweat_smile: . Does this work in safe mode? If so, could you disable them one by one to narrow down which one is causing this?

If it is indeed the Custom Wizard plugin, perhaps a bug report should be posted on the related topic? Thanks.

Errors are in safe mode

I must be the only one experiencing this issue :sweat_smile:

So you cannot save the category settings in safe mode? Odd. Are you on ESR or latest?

11

I am on the latest version.

I switched to safe mode, enabled the dev tools (F12), and as soon as I go to the settings of a category, I get this:

I can save settings, but for example, event sorting doesn’t work, even though I believe it’s an official plugin.

It’s strange that I’m the only one encountering errors, but such is the mystery of computing—still, it’s a bit annoying :sweat_smile:

Quite odd. If it’s a calendar-and-event issue, perhaps adding the tag would be better?
