    This is why obfuscation is flawed, it can cause bugs.

    grep is your friend.

    i would like to check with firefox - firebug - if the console throws any javascript error.
    in HTML you will have to see if this is as such when you click to open it
    < div class="ToggleFlyout OptionsMenu Open">
    < div class="MenuTitle">Options< /div>
    < ul class="Flyout MenuItems" style="display: block;">
    < li> < /li >
    < /ul >
    < /div>

    note class Open is added in first
    and < ul class="Flyout MenuItems" style="display: none;" > - for closed options menu

    and it is < ul class="Flyout MenuItems" style="display: block;"> for open menu

    hope that helps

    THanks

    So you disabled the minify plugin to fix your problem?

    Can you reproduce the problem (maybe on localhost) on a clean install of Vanilla RC2 and the minify plugin? No other enabled plugins preferred and the exact version of the minify plugin (I though there was more than one plugin that minifies)

    If you can reproduce, can you fill out a bug report on gitHub please?

    and the browsers you tried it on will help too, which browsers conflict, which don't. No sense in fixing something if it ain't broken in a certain browser.

  • I cant get you a clean install of vanila at the moment.

    It is Version 1.0.1b.

    I was testing on IE8, IE9, Firefox 6 & 7 and none of the option menus work with that enable, at least with this forum.

    Enabled and disabled all plugins to make sure this was the one with the conflict.

    Will try and get a log when I have time.
