 * First off, great plugin. I am in love with this thing.
 * Secondly, I found a bug in the build/editor.js that occurs when a user is using
   the_post_thumbnail front-end editing functionality. Basically, if a user uploads
   a picture and then selects “Change Image” on the initial upload, the image id
   is not grabbed properly in the JS. I have a patched version on my github fork
   that you can take a look at here:

 * Hopefully you can roll in this JQuery selector fix into your next version. I 
   just wanted you to be aware of this. Thanks! Once again, thank you for the amazing
   plugin.

 * I saw your fork; it doesn’t help much, since the patch was made against a much
   older version of the plugin.
 * First of all, are you sure this is still a bug in the latest version, i.e. FEE
   2.3?
 * If so, then maybe it would be easier to just paste the lines you changed, before
   and after, in a [http://pastebin.com](http://pastebin.com)

 * I have been using the automatic WordPress updater to install newer versions. 
   This is the version that it updated last. I will make sure I grab the current
   version from your github tomorrow and give it a shot. I will upload the fix to
   a Pastebin if it is still an issue. Sorry about that. I honestly thought it was
   the current version. It has been a long week. 🙂

 * If you don’t want to bother with [setting up CoffeeScript](https://github.com/scribu/wp-front-end-editor/wiki/Development-guide),
   I think you’re better off downloading the [development version](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/front-end-editor.zip)
   from wordpress.org.
 * **Update:** Oh, it probably wasn’t such an old version then. You just tried copying
   over the wp.org version on top of the github version.

 * I downloaded version 2.3 from WordPress and diffed it with the version with the
   edited JS files I have on github and that is essentially the only difference.
   It appears that the Version 2.3 up on WordPress is the one I was using.

 * Ok, but that still doesn’t help me, since there’s a big difference between the
   original github version (my repo) and the wp.org version, as you’ve seen.
 * Just give me the bugfix. 🙂

 * I copied the files from your github repo into a svn checkout from wp.org and 
   got this:

 * True. Sorry about that. And sorry for the delay. Work got in the way. That is
   it. 🙂
