All ajax functionality on single topic pages are broken. I get the following errors on:

wp-lists.js:1 — Uncaught ReferenceError: ajaxurl is not defined

topic.js:39 — Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method ‘wpList’

I’m using a copy of the TwentTen BBpress theme, but it doesn’t work even if I switch back to the default theme. I’m using the BBpress plugin with Buddypress, not standalone.

Also I’m pretty sure that since this happened, my replies order has reverse with the most recent showing first. Weird…but hopefully that is a clue?

Are you running WordPress 3.2 or 3.3nightly?

I’m running 3.3 and noticed this issue, but not sure when it first popped up.

[@highexistence Participant 13 years, 2 months ago]

3.2.1 – It happened randomly to me as well

I also switched back to the default buddypress theme and it still is broken. No JS errors, but no AJAX either

I noticed this a few weeks ago but never checked if it was fixed:

That fixes the first error but I’m still getting this one:

topic.js:39Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method ‘wpList’

I’ve tried deactivating all plugins besides BBpress, switching to the default theme and re-installing BBpress. The errors still comes up.

wplist.js is being called before topic.js so it must be something in the code…?

Bump

Anyone?

I was having the same issue and found some information here: https://codex.wordpress.org/AJAX_in_Plugins.

I’m using BuddyPress, so I added the following to my functions.php file. If you are using regular WordPress I believe you’d need to substitute site_url(‘wp-load.php’) with admin_url(‘admin-ajax.php’):

function ajaxurl_fix () {

?>

<script> var ajaxurl = '<?php echo site_url('wp-load.php'); ?>';</script>

<?php

}

add_action( 'get_header', 'ajaxurl_fix');

Edit: I changed the action hook from init to get_header because I was experiencing problems logging in.

Thanks for the help @will_c!

Unfortunately that didn’t work for me. Somehow I’m not even getting the above mentioned errors anymore (even before your suggestion) but AJAX is still not working.

AJAX is broken in Buddypress and BBpress and I have tried deactivating all other plugins.
