 * When clicking “Edit” on some fields (content, probably all that are textareas),
   nothing happens aside from this JavaScript error in the console:
 *     ```
       Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function editor.js?ver=2.3.1:726
       FrontEndEditor.fieldTypes.rich.rich.create_form editor.js?ver=2.3.1:726
       FrontEndEditor.fieldTypes.input.input.start_editing editor.js?ver=2.3.1:358
       jQuery.click editor.js?ver=2.3.1:273
       n.event.dispatch jquery.js?ver=1.11.0:3
       r.handle
       ```
   
 * some other fields that only use a single line input text (like title) seem to
   work fine.
 * Any ideas?
