Can't edit/delete topics #6

Open dicktone opened 9 years ago

dicktone commented 9 years ago

Perhaps it's an issue with my hardware, but when I click on a topic to edit it, nothing happens! Thanks!

davidrea commented 9 years ago

Thanks for the report. What browser/OS/device are you using? You need to make sure you click on either the text or the page number of the topic to edit; the background doesn't do anything.

dicktone commented 9 years ago

Thanks for the quick response! I'm using Firefox/OSX Yosemite/MacBookPro. I click on the text and/or page # and nothing happens. All other functionality seems OK.

dicktone commented 9 years ago

I used Safari instead and it works fine. Maybe my add-ons are interfering with Firefox. thanks.

Huh...strange...a quick test might be to start Firefox in safe mode to see if an Add-On is causing the issue:

I'm having the same issue in Firefox 39.0, both in normal browsing and in Safe Mode. Clicking on topics changes their background to light grey, but does not allow for editing; and clicking the trashcan icon does nothing.

davidrea commented 9 years ago

Tried it in 39.0 here, same issue. Maybe the Firefox is sending the click through on the parent element, will investigate...

Reporting several months later: this is still an issue in Firefox 42.0.

davidrea commented 8 years ago

Sorry for the long delay here... I am revamping topic interaction, which should make this issue go away once it goes live!

SpencerDub commented 8 years ago

Awesome! Thanks for the update, David!

Hey David, this is still an issue today. In Firefox 50.0.1, Chrome 54.0.2840.99 m, and Microsoft Edge 38.14393.0.0, clicking on the a topic brings up a dialog box that reads "Edit Topic," but I see no way to edit the topic name or page numbers. Clicking "Delete Topic" does nothing--the dialog box remains and the topic is not deleted.

This now means that I have no way, as far as I can tell, to delete topics from my books. Which is a bit of a hassle!

Hey Spencer - the behavior you're describing is actually the incomplete revamp of topic editing that I promised back on New Years day this year. And here it is December! I accidentally pushed the incomplete code recently when I deployed an update (ff4d568) to fix a 3rd-party package problem.

I've re-deployed the correct version of code now, so the original rename/delete behavior should be restored. I hope to wrap up that new "Edit Topic" box very soon, as well as some other ideas I've been cooking up on dog-walks and commutes... :)
