JQuery 1.1.4 incompatible with interface.js

[dancameron]

Not sure if 1.1.4 is necessary for the WP core but some plugins and themes of mine (I'm guessing others) that require interface.js are breaking. I'd suggest rolling back to 1.1.2 and waiting for a new interface.js release for JQuery 1.2 compatibility. Right now I'll just package 1.1.2 and test 1.2. Maybe 2.3.1 will be released after this gets straightened out by the two teams.

UI is scheduled for release this Sunday, which will essentially replace interface. It might be a better idea to try and incorporate that (possibly better for 2.4 though).

I agree though, if 1.1.4 is causing problems then it would be best to roll back to 1.1.2, as 1.1.3 had problems with older versions of Safari, which would cause a page not to load at all.

Could you be more specific about the problems that you're encountering? 2.3 uses the Interface plugin with jQuery 1.1.4 for the widgets page, for example, with no apparent problems.

There have been reported problems with iDrag:

Has this ticket been abbandoned? It seems that the new versions of Wordpress are crippled due to this bug (No drag-and-drop issue when trying to install widgets to a sidebar).
This problem has been since version 2.2 and nobody in the develpment group noticed it.

What browser are you using bszuta? I've noticed no issues with drag and drop, But i guess there must be some people having issues.

Is this still an issue with the new admin interface?

Probably can switch over to jQuery UI for dragging and Dropping, but Interface.js is still being used in the latest version with jQuery 1.2.3. Need to confirm that issue is still a problem with Safari.

Replying to darkdragon:

The last time I checked, UI's drag and dropping were extremely buggy. Even the demos on the UI site don't work.

[darkdragon]

Well, they are coming out with version 1.5 of the UI components, so it might help.

[santosj]

is interface.js used anymore? If not then this needs to be closed as invalid.

Interface is dead.
