Thanks for the system report.

Can you try deactivating the Speed Optimizer and see if that helps?

Caching plugins are not recommended for MainWP Dashboard. Most of the content is dynamic so the caching plugins cannot offer great performance improvements, but they are known to cause issues with some MainWP functionality.

I have a fix but keep getting 403 errors posting

@bojan See th enext post for a fix

========= A FIX IS BELOW =================

Hi all,

I’m going to +1 this as I have the same issue .Just installed the plug in today (March 21 15:00 GMT +1 ) and cannot get any of the tabs to do anything.

Looking at HTML consol:

‘‘‘Uncaught TypeError: jQuery(…).tab is not a function

https://……/wp-admin/admin.php?page=Extensions-Mainwp-Backwpup-Extension&tab=new-job:3891

admin.php:3891:59’’’

==================

.tab is supplied by formatic not vanilla jQuery

==================================

Because the code says

imageine  the html script tag here

   jQuery(......).tab();

image the html closing script tag here   adding them makes this 403 not save

it runs before formatic is loaded

Either this should be deferred or the deferred formatic moved earlier. I think it should be on an after loaded delay.

An alternative is to add an mu-plugin as follows:

vim wp-content/mu-plugins/fix-backwpup-formatic.php

image an open php tag here 
add_filter( 'script_loader_tag', function( $tag, $handle ) {
      if ( $handle !== 'fomantic-ui' ) {
          return $tag;
      }
      $screen = get_current_screen();
      if ( $screen && strpos( $screen->base, 'Backwpup' ) !== false ) {
          return str_replace( ' defer', '', $tag );
      }
      return $tag;
  }, 20, 2 );

I can confirm this works. But it is a work around.

Thanks for the detailed report.

We are looking into the issue and we will have a fix for it in an upcoming release.

A fix for this issue was included in version 5.1.1 of the BackWPUp add-on.

Thanks again for reporting this to us.
