by @kalico1:

When I go to Extras tab >> All Fields, select one of my pre-sets and click on "Import" the fields are not added.

I will check.

Hi @slaFFik I wonder if you have a timeline for this issue or #121 . This has completely broken our workflow, and we can't add new groups at all right now. If there's anything you can suggest to help us, it would be greatly appreciated :)

I've done some further testing, and I suspect this is at least in part related to the theme. I reported the issue to ThemeIsle, and I'll let you know what I hear back.

@kalico1, Great, thank you for letting me know. Please keep me updated on this issue.

Hi @slaFFik I have some new information to report. I am doing a massive plugin and theme conflict test across my entire network. Bug reporting turned on everywhere.

At this point, I have mostly attributed the click/drag problem to CSS (see #121). Additionally, with all my plugins turned off except BP and BPGE, the field "delete" buttons work correctly.

The primary issue now is the inability to import groups of fields.

When I try to import, I get popped up to the top of the page, and no import happens. It's like the # at the end of the URL is acting as an anchor tag, with nowhere to go. You can see this happening in the screencast.

There are no errors in debug.log, but I have uncovered a console error. This error appears when no plugins are activated except BP and BPGE. arc_and_manage_group_ _colorado_community_college_system_ _nroc_community

I hope that might give you a clue as to what's going on here.

Thanks, Kalico

I am pleased to report that we have discovered the root source of this issue, and it had nothing to do with anything I expected.

I had unwittingly imported some code into my parent theme's header.php file, while attempting to fix a bunch of things that went wrong after the theme update.

I have an old script, from an old website, that we are trying to maintain on a new site (it's tricky) and it turns out that it calls the jquery-latest.min.js library, that's supposed to "keep jquery up to date".

It's an old and outdated library, and it is known to cause issues.

Worse yet, my old script was calling it wrong: it's just linked directly in the header file, which is something that's not compliant with WP Codex (any JS libraries should be added using "wp-enqueue-script()" function).

So now that I've dealt with that problem, everything in BPGE is working properly. Hurray!

Special thanks to the team at WPMUDEV - it was Adam over there who helped me identify this problem and get it sorted out.

This solves #121 as well!!

Awesome news! I'm glad you found the root cause.

I'm closing this and #121.
