    Hi~! First off, I want to let you know I’ve been using this plugin to manage my Deleted Products media for some time and I love it that it helps me with that.

    But recently we face some issues with the website, eventually though I resolved some of the issues.. but can’t help notice this JS error that appeared after activating Media Tracker.

    Live site vs dev-s3 staging site — Live site upon troubleshooting for my other issues — left Media Tracker deactivated. — dev-s3 has it activated together with the same plugins I have at live site – Media tracker is the only variant. Seen this JS error (in Dev tools Chrome’s Console) while Quick Edit – Product (Woocommerce) :

    (On Live site, this error is not there — since Media Tracker is deactivated, and I doubled checked .. no other variant in terms of Plugins being activated)

    The full JS error shown : jquery.js?ver=3.7.1:1487

    Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: .

    Hope you can do something about this as an improvement — there must be something that causes this… am a noob towards JS errors… . so not sure what caused this.

    Thank you.

    Hi @allstarsft

    Thank you for your message and for using Media Tracker much appreciated.

    I’ve reviewed the issue and rechecked Media Tracker with WooCommerce, and I couldn’t find any syntax or selector issue coming directly from the plugin.

    The error:

    Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: .

    is a generic jQuery error that usually means some script is trying to run an invalid or empty selector (for example $(".")). Media Tracker itself does not generate such selectors, but activating it can change the JS execution order and expose an existing conflict with another plugin, theme script, or custom admin JS — especially around WooCommerce Quick Edit. Could you please try:

    1. Update WordPress core to the latest version (if not already updated), as older versions sometimes ship with outdated or conflicting admin scripts.
    2. Temporarily disable all plugins except WooCommerce and Media Tracker and test Quick Edit again.
    3. If the error disappears, re-enable plugins one by one to identify the conflict.
    4. If possible, switch temporarily to a default theme (e.g. Twenty Twenty-Four) and test again.

    If the issue persists, please let me know:

    • Whether it still happens with only WooCommerce + Media Tracker active, and
    • If the console shows any reference to a specific selector or script above mt-admin.js.

    That will help me narrow it down and apply a defensive fix if needed.

    Thanks again for reporting this happy to help further.

    Best regards,

    hmm . Thanks for your reply.

    Let me settle my site’s other issues first.. as there were other errors at the backend.

    Have to use an older staging site to restore later (Push to live).

    Then I will get back on Media tracker (currently all staged and live sites running on WP 6.9).

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the update — no problem at all 👍

    That sounds good. Please take your time to settle the other site issues first and restore from the older staging if needed.

    Whenever you’re ready to revisit Media Tracker, feel free to reach out and I’ll be happy to help you look into it further.

    Thanks again, and best of luck with the site restoration.
