Description

The adminbar JS file is either being loaded twice or is conflicting with another JS file being loaded by specific blogs preventing the adminbar from functioning correctly. I'm going to investigate where this conflict is coming from and how to correct it.

A specific example can be seen on CUNYPie:

The "wpng-calendar" plugin is loading its own version of jQuery, which is a no-no!

Two courses of action:
  • Patch wpng-calendar to use WP's version of jQuery and notify the plugin authors. (Also check if there is an update for the plugin and see if this is addressed in a newer version.)
  • Disable the plugin and use a different calendar plugin on CUNYPie.

we can disable that calendar plugin on CUNYPie, as we're not using it, but I wonder what other sites are also using that plugin . . . .

And thanks, Ray!!

Looks good on my end.

I'm pretty sure Boone and I blacklisted the enabling of this plugin for this very reason. We left the plugin enabled on any site where it was already running so we wouldn't disrupt anyone's current setup, but no one can enable it going forward if they weren't already "grandfathered in."

    initial commit

Doesn't look like wpng-calendar is being maintained, so I'd say let's just go ahead and make the change right in the plugin. Dom, can you take care of this? Remove their own registering/enqueuing of jquery, and then make sure that jquery is registered correctly as a dependency for their other scripts. Then, please feel free to send a .diff patch to the author, if you can find their info (though don't hold your breath for it to be implemented).

Ya, I'll take of it. This will fix any current blogs that still have it enabled and as I said above, no one else can enable it going forward.
