Answered Nothing works in Manager after Upgrade to 2.3 [SOLVED]

    Hi, I managed to get my manager looking smooth with a cache clear, but none of the pages work in my manager. Only the homepage shows. Whenever I click a link, nothing happens, or I get a blank page.

    Even logging out doesn't work. I have never had problems with previous upgrades, and I feel there might be a buggy upgrade process in the new release?

    Refreshing and emptying the cache did not improve functionality. Problem is I can't log out since nothing works anymore and since I'm currently logged in, I don't want to make changes to the setup now, being afraid I might not get back into my manager after attempting a downgrade.

    I'm using a local setup on a mac. The upgrade process gave an 'ok' on every part of the upgrade.

    (made a new account here on the forums, couldn't get into my old one anymore somehow)

      Turn off compress_css and compress_js via phpMyAdmin then deleter the core cache again

        Thanks. This solution solved my issue.

        Thanks, this has also worked for me, I just tried it a second before you replied on my question.
        Kind of strange, prepare for many more like me...

        I hope this gets solved soon, I can imagine not everyone will have the ingenuity to fix this.

        Happy anyway, I can get to work again!
        Thanks PaulP!

          Glad it's working, I know the team are aware of the issue so it will hopefully be fixed in 2.3.1

            One new issue also came, now my page is being output with a '1' in the head, but it's printed on the page?.. Right after the base.

            <html>
<head>
<title>Marinus de Beer - Projects</title>
<base href="[removed]" />
1
<link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/css/layoutv1.css" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>


            Superweird since my template looks like this:

            <html>
<head>
<title>[[++site_name]] - [[*pagetitle]]</title>
<base href="[[++site_url]]" />
[[insert_css?]]
</head>
<body>



            And the insert css looks like this:

            <?php
$modx->regClientCSS('assets/css/layoutv1.css');

              There is an issue in 2.3 that Extras that don't return anything will return 1, the solution is to add a return to the bottom of the snippet in question but I can't find the thread it's detailed in

                Thanks, I am not using any extras besides wayfinder for now, but removing wayfinder didn't solve it. This has left me clueless, since there is no way that 1 can be coming from anything in my manager.

                It's this thread by the way:
                http://forums.modx.com/thread/92145/problem-with-snippets---snippets-add-1-at-the-end-of-the-output-since-update-to-2-3#dis-post-503477

                But it's about turning the echo into a return. My problem is different, as the 1 thats being output, is not near an echo or return.

                OKay, so it comes down to that this script causes it:
                <?php
$modx->regClientCSS('assets/css/layoutv1.css');

                  Every snippet and plugin is going to have to have a return statement at the end. Otherwise MODX is going to output the 1 for successful execution of the snippet or plugin. Where that output will appear is going to be uncertain.

                    Alright so I turned it into:
                    $modx->regClientCSS('assets/css/layoutv1.css');
return $modx->regClientCSS;


                    This has solved my problem, is this the right way of doing it?

                      No. That will return the success or failure of the regClientCSS() function. Simply return nothing, since nothing is what you want it to return.
                      <?php
$modx->regClientCSS('assets/css/layoutv1.css');
return;
