Inconsistency with Repeaters/Blocks

Hey,

One of the most frustrating things my users find with Perch, is using Repeaters and Blocks. Some of the issues that seem to appear:

  • Asset drag and drop doesn't activate when adding a new item within a repeater (might be specific for repeaters inside blocks)
  • Text block SimpleMDE not initiating when it's within a repeater (just an empty textbox appears)
  • Now and then when a repeater is within block sometimes the add an item button has no text

Using latest Perch Runway:

Perch Runway: 3.1.3, PHP: 7.2.8, MySQL: mysqlnd 5.0.12-dev - 20150407 - $Id: 38fea24f2847fa7519001be390c98ae0acafe387 $, with PDO Server OS: Darwin, apache2handler Installed apps: content (3.1.3), assets (3.1.3), categories (3.1.3), perch_blog (5.6.1) App runtimes: <?php $apps_list = [ 'perch_blog' ]; PERCH_LOGINPATH: /admin PERCH_PATH: /admin PERCH_CORE: /admin/core PERCH_RESFILEPATH: /admin/resources Image manipulation: GD PHP limits: Max upload 128M, Max POST 128M, Memory: 128M, Total max file upload: 128M F1: 3b606135b33e6a102526838f4152a807 Resource folder writeable: Yes HTTP_HOST: site.localhost DOCUMENT_ROOT: / REQUEST_URI: /admin/core/settings/diagnostics/ SCRIPT_NAME: /admin/core/settings/diagnostics/index.php

It's super frustrating to populate a few repeaters and then trying to drag and drop, as the image loads in the browser and all the content is lost.

If I can help at all, please let me know!

Ryan.

  1. Do you get any errors in the browser console when this happens?
  2. Are you running any plugins such as ad blockers in your browser?

  1.

    To recreate, drag and drop an item to an asset field within blocks or a repeater, then add another block/item.

  2. Just standard Chrome, no ad blockers.
