Wordpress plugin changes various text fields in Wordpress Admin

edited January 2011 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
Hmmm. I thought I posted this before but now I can't find it with a search. After installing the Embed Vanilla Wordpress plugin, the slug edit field in Wordpress is compressed/skinny and the "Edit" and "View Page" buttons overlap the slug edit field.

I tested it by disabling the plugin and the slug edit field went back to normal. Then I re-enabled it and the glitch came back.

Here are two screenshots of what I mean:

Has anyone else noticed this?

  • I found another post that mentioned this same problem: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/14532/a-few-basic-features-lacking-wp-plugin-issue/p1

    After I posted my discussion above, I found a few other sections of my Wordpress Admin area where the text box fields were also affected, mostly showing up much smaller than they used to. I don't understand how the plugin could affect that? But it definitely goes back to normal if I disable the Vanilla Wordpress plugin, and the problem appears again if I re-enable it.

    For other people using the Wordpress plugin, is it affecting any parts of your admin screen?
  • Same for me including widget text boxes.
  • Sorry to keep bringing this up, but I noticed that it also changed the font in my page HTML edit fields from Verdana to some kind of Courier font. Ew.

    I'm sure you have a lot of pressing issues and fixes to work on, but for all of the announcements around being able to embed Vanilla into Wordpress, I find it a bit troubling that the plugin affects the Wordpress Admin area.

    I can't help but wonder what other other parts of the Admin area are affected that I haven't discovered yet. Just makes me a bit nervous. Is this even on the radar screen?

  • Gotta use the mentions @mark @tim so they key into it. Looks like a proper bug of some kind.

    Hmm. It shouldn't be adding our CSS unless it is on our admin page. Will investigate.
  • Thanks Mark, I appreciate it.
  • I'm experiencing this too.
