Hey K2ers,

I've been having difficulty with one website when using K2 in Firefox since upgrading Firefox.

Config info

Joomla 2.5.14
K2 2.5.7
PHP version 5.3.18
MySQL version 5.1.70-cll

Firefox 23.0.0

Symptoms
  • inability to save new Categories
  • inability to save new Items


"Solution"
Downgraded to Firefox 22 with an old user profile. Symptoms cleared up. :huh:

Firefox 23.0.1
Symptoms
  • Cannot see any media in the K2 Media Manager, yet Categories, Items, etc. display fine . (The Joomla media manager displays all content fine.) :ohmy:

  • Can't save new Categories. :pinch:

Checks:
  • Problem does not occur with my test site, which is an old copy of the live site.

  • The database does not appear to be corrupted as far as I can tell, but I don't really know what to look for.

  • The Diagnostic in the trusty ACL manager reports no issues.

  • K2 for this site is behaving normally in Chrome.

  • Other extensions apparently unaffected.

  • Checked known bugs in Firefox new releases: nothing pertinent.

Even though K2 is working fine in Chrome, I'm suspicious that something is corrupted in Joomla, but I don't know what. I use FireBug a lot and prefer Firefox for this reason.


Has anyone seen this type of thing before?

Thanks!

I tried it with FF 23.0.1 and it works fine.

FF in the past has had some issues with MooTools ( after v. 20 ) so make sure you have cleared your browser's cache as well.

In the end it turned out that Mozilla-local and Mozilla-roaming directories were somehow the problem. What worked for me was to:

0. Save my many bookmarks to make sure that I could get them back.
1. Move Mozilla-local and Mozilla-roaming directories out of the FireFox installation just in case
2. Install the latest FireFox.

That's all. It seems the previous effort with cleaning up the Firefox profile was unnecessary.

I hope this helps nyx as well. :)
