Menu Javascript error + undefined property class ... newbie in need of some help

Menu Javascript error + undefined property class ... newbie in need of some help

I managed to get moodle to install last night, after multiple failed attempts.

The site loads, and allows me to login.  However I've come across a few teething problems. I have searched these forums for solutions, and tried them... but the problems still exist.

Menu not expanding

The admin menu on left side, doesn't expand when I click on 'My Profile Settings' or 'Site Administration',  the others don't expand or contract either... but these ones are already expanded.

I found a solution on this forum which said to include the following code in the javascript.php file

if (windowobj) { after windowobj = window.open(fullurl,name,options); and close the brachet before return false;

I've put this at the very end of the javascript.php file,  after "Minify::serve('Files', $options);    die();}"

When I did this and uploaded it, the error went and the menu worked fine... now I've come back to fix further problems.... the menu problem is back.  I've tried re uploading the javascript.php file, but can't seem to find a solution.

I have copied the error given on internet explorer too, if that helps?

___________________________________________________

The other error, shows on login screen and the index.php page.

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$frontpage in /homepages/xx/useraccount/htdocs/moodle/index.php on line 144

$frontpagelayout = $CFG->frontpage;

The page calls the following:

require_once($CFG->dirroot .'/course/lib.php');    require_once($CFG->libdir .'/filelib.php');

I have found a few people with this error on their sites, but no solutions... can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Hello, I couldn't do anything with site administration as it wouldn't expand. I thought it must have something to do with files in cache, so I deleted all temp files and everything else I could think of with NO GOOD RESULTS. Then, I saw the link posted, and it worked like a miracle! big grin The only thing I had to do though, for my use, I'm trying 2.2+ on my computer in EasyPHP, and I also had to close and restart EasyPHP. After that, everything worked. Your suggestion came just in time! Thanks!

I have been having the same issues as above and have also used the fix above (with success), but it seems i have to do this every so often as the menu's stop functioning after a day or two. is there a permanent fix for this issue yet? also will this affect students navigation as they begin to register themselves into my moodle?

And if the above link did NOT give a magic solution,

you can try this link: http://yourdomain.com/theme/index.php

and hit the (Clear theme caches) button.

it worked for me where the (Purge all caches) did not,

HTH

That did it for me!

I had been searching for the possible solution to this all weekend and it was not until I upened the console with firebug that I saw m.util is disabled so googling: "m.util is disabled moodle" took me to this post.


Thanks again!
