Any thoughts, anyone?

Thanks!

I have seen over 20 reported errors relating to this incident and most seem to indicate removing plug-ins and/or removing the offending line of code.

If you remove the offending line 261 in the 1.5.7 release of Joomla, the editor will work but you will lose access to button plug-ins such as ‘Image’ and ‘Page Break’.

To retain full functionality, simply encapsulate the line with a check for the ‘onDisplay’ method as shown below.

// This was the original code that did not check for the method
// $result[] = $plugin->onDisplay($editor);

// Try to authenticate
if (method_exists($plugin, 'onDisplay')) {
$result[] = $plugin->onDisplay($editor);
}

I hope this helps everyone.

Best regards,

I had the same problem in my case it was with the Seyret Button plugin on J.1.5.8 so it may be a small bug between J.1.5.x and advanced editors.. mmm

There are lot's of threads on this issue and I have read through most of them. This seems to be the last updated so I'll add my findings here.

It was a comment in another thread that got me onto this line of thinking but the solution provided was a little more technical than the one I used.

The button plugins are referenced in the sites database, so if you have some plugins installed locally as you build your site then you move it to the server with a nice fresh install and import your database from your local environment you have a conflict. The database sees the "button" plugin reference and tries to load them when you try to add or edit an article. The Plugins aren't installed so they can't be displayed: Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::onDisplay()

So it is a user error, in my case anyway, even though a little convoluted and hard to track down. Using a hack to get around it or disabling plugins isn't a great solution, what if you actually want to use the plugins?

I solved my issue by uninstalling the plugins that weren't actually installed, this showed me errors as you can't uninstall something that isn't installed, but it worked.
