Forum:Problem with AJAX RC

Today, the AJAX (auto-refreshing) Recent Changes on two Wikis I contribute for, KHWiki and The Suite Life Wiki, has stopped working entirely.

You will notice that upon load, the checkbox is always unchecked. It should be checked if it was previously, as this is meant to save a cookie on the user's computer and read it when the script loads. Also, when the checkbox is initially ticked, it does not reload the page (which it should). And finally, if left checked, the page does not auto-reload.

Our Wikis' JS files were not modified in the last few days (prior to this happening), nor has the AJAX RC source file been modified since June 6th.

This error has been encountered in Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, and on both Monobook and Oasis, by multiple users. I have cleared my cache and cookies for all Wikis sites, to no avail.

This is also worth mentioning: On Monobook, I get these JavaScript errors: Uncaught ReferenceError: GS_googleAddAdSenseService is not defined (anonymous function)  Special:RecentChanges:431 Uncaught ReferenceError: GA_googleUseIframeRendering is not defined (anonymous function)  Special:RecentChanges:433

On Oasis, there are no JavaScript errors.


 * EDIT: I already contacted Wikia about this; because the AJAXRC is not made by them, they cannot provide support.

Thanks for any help in advance. —  So x ra  22:30, July 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * AjaxRC is a very simple script, the error here is likely an indication of a larger problem on Wikia's end. AjaxRC works for me on most wikis, although oddly not on the ones you linked.


 * Just checked the Metroid, RuneScape, and Left 4 Dead Wikis. All the same issue. Do you have any that it is currently working fine on? 22:50, July 21, 2011 (UTC)
 * (Edit conflict) You can also add the Mass Effect and Fallout Wikis to this list as I have tried them on both and they failed to update. However I also think it may be an issue with users, but then I honestly don't know what I'm talking about, but I've seen plenty of times where someone has code in their user space, and they don't know that it broke anything.
