Unresponsive Wordpress New Post Script

This was very annoying, but thanks to Gary Walsh in Sydney the problem’s solved.

What was happening was when the Write>Post screen was opened, it would sit then eventually throw up an unresponsive script error which stemmed from: /wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js

It essentially rendered the Wordpress admin useless unless you wrote a draft elsewhere, such as an external blog editor, and saved it as a draft - the Manage section was unaffected.

In any case, if you find yourself with the same issue, it’s a simple edit of the wp-admin\edit-form-advanced.php file. Just remove this line:


$metadata = has_meta($post->ID);
list_meta($metadata);
?>
