If I add #modx-window-mi-grid-update {display: block !important;} to the manager/templates/css/modx-min.css file it seems to fix the issue on my end ... now I just need to figure out why it works on initial load after cache clear but not subsequent loads without modifying the CSS.
This worked for me too and I’m happy to live with the hack. My environment in case it helps: I’m in 2.1.0-pl with MIGX 1.0.0-pl1, on Ubuntu 10.10 with PHP Version 5.3.3-1ubuntu9.5 and MySQL 5.1.48-1ubuntu8.1. It was a clean install with migx the only extra added. The only template variable was a migx which had the tabs and columns from the example file in the distribution. The overlay loads the first time, but on page reload it never appears again. I was encountering the problem on Firefox 4 and Chromium on Ubuntu and on Chrome on my MacBook Pro.
For me, the problem doesn’t fix itself after cache clear and there are no errors displayed anywhere I can see (the server log, modx, browser js console). I did notice that the connector script did appear twice in my Firebug net panel (and the Chromium equivalent) but didn’t look into it as I didn’t realise it might be a problem.
One odd thing is that the problem is only recent. Here’s the narrative as I see it: I had up until Thursday morning a site on my dev environment with many migx blocks and lots of content and there was not a problem at all. My hard drive happened to fail at that point and I spent the weekend up until yesterday rebuilding my dev environment on a new hard drive. I restored the site from backups and the problem started to appear - I spent about 6 hours yesterday chasing down various dead end avenues mainly to do with permissions and server modules etc - none of which helped. Here’s the thing, though - my ’dead’ drive came back to life after having not been touched since it failed and I was able to boot with it. When I loaded up the site in the browser the overlay disappearing problem re-appeared. There was a considerable amount of content already in the the migx blocks, so it’s clear that they were working previously - but now they were clearly not. This leads me to wonder whether the problem is due to some automatic update that’s happened in the meantime. Anyway, I’ve run out of time to tinker, and the css hack seems to work for me so I’m happy.
I wonder if this detail might help someone? Anyway, thanks for the plugin and the fix.
