oBxDolSubscription is not defined

On some pages of the website, when you hover over a profile picture, wait for the action buttons to appear, and then click the "Subscribe Button", nothing occurs, and a message appears in the JavaScript console of Google Chrome:

Uncaught ReferenceError: oBxDolSubscription is not defined

This occurs in all browsers that I have tried (IE, Firefox, Chrome), and can be duplicated reliably by visiting the demo site at demo.boonex.com, and without logging in do the following:

  • From the top menu, select "People" > "All Members"
  • Once page has loaded, hover over "Possum" until the action menu appears. 
  • Click the "Subscribe" button. 
  • Nothing will happen. (If you have your JavaScript console open you should see the script error)

 

I reported this about 2 years ago, and supplied a fix for a few pages. My solution can be found at: http://www.boonex.com/forums/topic/Subscribe-Button.htm

Oddly enough, I'm getting this same bug in the "Members" box on the main Home page of my site, but can't duplicate the bug on the demo site. Also, this same bug occurs whether you are logged in or not.

One other bug (also reported in the same post back in 2011), is that the subscribe button (when it does work) does not change to unsubscribe after it is clicked until you close the action list and re-open it by hovering over the user for a bit.

This bug occurs on quite a few pages throughout the site, but I haven't tracked all of them down yet. I'm also not sure if the solution I presented in the other post still works, but I will try it in the morning.

There are many people who can write computer programs, but there are very few computer programmers.

I have a similar issue - I am trying to get the subscribe pop up box to show for an image link in the header.  Same error - ReferenceError: oBxDolSubscription is not defined according to firebug.  It works on the hompeage - but only cuz the subscribe block is there.  I want it to work on every page.  

So I think the solution is close to what Draxxon posted a while back, but not exactly.  I just have to know what code to put where.  Please let me know if you do! 

Thanks!
