Yo Marco and Francesco ..what are you doing to me….is this Italian code **ReferenceError: naffOptionsCount is not defined** * Did you forget the cream for your Cappuccino this morning.. go get some and please fix this naffOptionsCount.. your plugin is broken this morning * Plugin Author [Marco Chiesi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcochiesi/) * (@marcochiesi) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reference-error-while-using-editor-in-widget/#post-3799905) * The error you reported is not generated by our plugin as there’s no `naffOptionsCount` reference in our code. Usually this kind of problems is caused by conflicts with other plugins (or themes in some cases). Please try to selectively disable all other plugin until you find which one is conflicting, then we can try to find a fix for it together with the developers of the other plugin. Please see our [FAQ](http://wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/faq/) with the instructions for sending a detailed issue report. * [thecoffeedude](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thecoffeedude/) * (@thecoffeedude) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reference-error-while-using-editor-in-widget/#post-3799912) * Strange>>> Is this the first time this has happen? Do you realize how much time this will take..? This should not be? * Plugin Author [Marco Chiesi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcochiesi/) * (@marcochiesi) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reference-error-while-using-editor-in-widget/#post-3799914) * Unfortunately I still cannot read people’s mind so how could I know which plugins are you using? If you want to help please read our FAQ and post a detailed issue report with all the relevant information, as I already said. By the way, disable the plugins would take a very short time. If you have many plugins, start with the ones you recently updated and the ones that affects widgets and editor’s behavior. * [thecoffeedude](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thecoffeedude/) * (@thecoffeedude) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reference-error-while-using-editor-in-widget/#post-3799917) * Very well..

I discovered that I have a premium WP plugin named **MaxBlogPress Ninja Affiliate** this is a link cloaking plugin with many valued added features.. and I would like to continue using it.. since its effectiveness is very good I use this link cloaking plugin on many of my sites.. * Apparently there is code conflict somewhere there in.. between the Black studio tiny MCE and the MaxBlog ninja affiliate plugin Not sure if anything can be done about this.. I originally wanted to use the Black Studio Tiny MCE to create a drop down menu on my side bar for other affiliate programs which I promote. If you have any suggestions as to how to create a separate side bar menu other than the Link setting within WordPress itself I would appreciate that.. Hope these findings will help others.. Much appreciated for your time…keep up the good work * Regards Ralph * Plugin Author [Marco Chiesi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcochiesi/) * (@marcochiesi) * [12 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/reference-error-while-using-editor-in-widget/#post-3799962) * Hi Ralph, unfortunately since **MaxBlogPress Ninja Affiliate** is a premium plugin, I am not able to investigate on this issue. I believe you should contact the plugin’s authors and ask them for a solution. If their plugin does not provide a widget, the fix would be very easy: do not load plugin’s javascript code in the widgets screen as it’s not needed; this would prevent any conflict with my and other plugins. That would be 2 lines of code to be added in their plugin. If, instead, it uses javascript for some custom widgets, the problem needs further analysis. I am available to help if you (or the plugin’s author) can provide a copy of the plugin. * P.S. If you only need a list of links in the sidebar, I think you could create a custom menu and add it on a widget using the menu widget.
