I just upgraded a CMSB installation to version 2.03. Everything seems OK, except that if I want to add a new section editor, the description for the "advanced menu types" is missing. I have a different site that uses version 2.01 and it works fine.

I've tried to troubleshoot it and I see in the lib/menus/database/addTable_functions.js file, the very last function should be handling this, but all I see is "..." where the description should be in the editor. No matter if I select anything or not, the description never appears.

Somewhere I ran across a reference to a bug fix for this, but can't locate it anymore.

Can you help me out please?

Hi,

So, in CMS you see the menu options, just not the descriptions?
Do you see all of the descriptions in adTable_functions.js? Trying re-copying that file into the lib/menus/database/ folder. After that, clear your browser cache and try it again.

Let me know if you still get the same error.

OK, just figured out a little bit more for you. I did what you suggested (reloading the file). Didn't have any effect. However, I tried it it Internet Explorer 8 and it works fine. It just doesn't work in FireFox 3.5.8.

Also, I think I found another minor issue. The General Settings page kept asking me for a Website Root Directory. After some investigation, I discovered that the variable "webRootDir" was not in the default settings.dat.php file at all. I created it and it works fine, but wanted to let you know in case it wasn't related to my upgrade.

Hi there,

Have you tried emptying the cache? In Firefox, you can do this by going to Tools -> Clear Recent History and change the time range to "Everything". One thing I like to do (because I have a lot of saved passwords that I don't want to re-enter) is click on the "Details" button and leave a few things unchecked, but make sure that "Cache" is checked. :)

Thanks, Donna. That seemed to do it. I cleared the cache per your instructions, restarted Firefox and everything seems to be working just as it should. Thank you very much!!!
