How to fix More Fields 1.3 for Wordpress 2.9.1
More fileds is very useful plugin but unfortunately the current version (1.3) has a problem and it’s reported as broken :( but here how to fix it!
Yes, it’s true, as soon as the plugin is activated, a lots of JavaScript function broke in the Wordpress backend. Fon instance, we can’t change permalink, can’t change publish date, publish status..etc. Don’t worry, it’s easy to fix until the next version is released.
1. Find line 136 on “more-fields-object.php” in the plugin folder.
function wp_default_scripts(&$scripts) { $src = get_option('home') . '/wp-content/plugins/more-fields/post.js'; $scripts->registered['post']->src = $src; }
2. swap “registerd” bit with “add_data” like below.
function wp_default_scripts(&$scripts) { $src = get_option('home') . '/wp-content/plugins/more-fields/post.js'; $scripts->add_data['post']->src = $src; }
Then everything working fine for now.
Anyway, I really hope the plugin author fix this issue with the next version.

Juan,
I believe you don’t need to click, just mouse over and out, it it wll collapse and expands. That’s how it works for me.
maggy,
It’s known error which has been for a long time. However I find it works even we get that error. Of course it shouldn’t happen though.

Thanks for the fix!! The plugin author is missing, his website is down.
