i think i discovered my problem. there seems to be a conflict with AG Custom Admin plugin. I have deactivated it an now i don’t see the problem. I can’t say for absolute certainty that was it because i just noticed that i wasn’t getting it anymore and related it to that plugin because that plugin was causing another conflict with buddypress.
I am also getting this error since i updated to 1.8
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘init’ of undefined
