Change author link not working - K2 2.5.3/J 1.5.25 was created by Brent Friar
It seems to be the same on all of my K2/J1.5 installs, the change author link opens a new page instead of a lightbox, which of course makes it impossible to change authors. It does not seem to be a problem with any of my K2/J1.7 installs.

It would seem to be a javascript conflict, but the problem persists even after I turn off every plugin and component that might be loading anything in to the page.

Anyone else have this problem?

It would appear that there is also an issue with the comments as well. Clicking the submit link does not refresh the comments, but the submissions are received. Since the user cannot tell that anything has happened, they submit the same comment repeatedly. This seems to be happening on all of my J1.5 sites that were upgraded to K2 2.5.x.

There was a tweet on the 29th Nov from Joomlaworks

We have found a stupid bug in the K2 backend .js which prevents inline comment editing. K2 v2.5.4 will be released tomorrow fixing that...


Not seen a 2.5.4 release announcement though

I have same problem. SVN from last hour.
It opens window with User list and nothing to do, just click back button.

First of all, Author change window doesn´t open in modal box at all. It opens in whole window, with no posibilty to close it.

That fixes it for the author link, no need to put that line so far down in the code though, anywhere at the top works as well. Apparently the 1.7 admin template defaults to this behavior while the 1.5 admin template does not.

Now to figure out the commenting problem.
