Hi Ryan

There appears to be an error in in the plugin JCE MediaBox 2.0.8. This prevented my Joomla51 template from working properly. Ciaran from the Joomla51-Support asked me to disable the JCE MediaBox plugin. And this resolved the issue.

SyntaxError: illegal character[Learn More] jcemediabox.min.js:3:542


Kind regards

Does this error occur when loading the page, or when clicking on a MediaBox popup link?

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

This website did not have any MediaBox popup link yet. So it was no problem disabling it for the moment. I presume this error occurs when loading the page.
Since the plugin is disabled, the website is ok now.

The error message was not visible to the public. But it caused the main menu to be displayed twice. The Joomla51 Support found the cause for the error. See https://www.joomla51.com/forum/main-menu-is-displayed-twice

Kind regards

Was this a fresh install of JCE MediaBox, or had you upgraded from a previous version?

It is an upgrade from a previous version.

If there are no popup links on the page, then I suspect the error is caused by a saved JCE MediaBox parameter.

If you wish to continue using MediaBox, please send me a login so I can investigate - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/contact/site-login

I have uninstalled and re-installed MediaBox 2.0.8 on your site and it is now loading without the error.
