I upgraded to Joomla 2.5 from 1.7.3 and Comments work except that I cannot delete any comments. I can check the select box but then I click the delete icon and get a messsage box that says "Please make a selection from the list" even though there is one selected. I renewed my membership, downloaded 4.2.1, uploaded and installed it but no difference. I tried IE9 instead of Firefox; no difference. Help!
I am using ythis forum to request help since I cannot access your ticket system. When I select that menu item, I get no button to click and no form to complete.

Note that the delete icon in line with the comments works OK. But it sends an email to the commenter and I prefer not to do that so I have always used the delete icon at the top.

Hey John,
Sorry about that bug! I remember few days ago reading a tweet from Nicholas complaining that the js for the adminForm has been changed between the beta and final release and back then I didn't think that it affect us... but obviously I was wrong...

So, the fix is really easy!
Go to administrator/components/com_comment/views/comments/tmpl/default.php
on line 36 you will find this code:
<form action="" method="post" name="adminForm" >

change it to
<form action="" method="post" name="adminForm" id="adminForm">

And it should start to work properly again.

Cheers,
Daniel

P.S. About the problems with the ticket system - could you please check again? Logout and login into the site - your account permission are correct so you should have access to that section and you should see the CompojoomComment category in the ticket system. Thanks!

Ha! Look what I found here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/joomlabugsquad/4RLnsIvDCVY

A new version 2.5.1 is on the way - it will fix the problem with 3rd party extensions and "you must make a selection first" problem.

Cheers,
Daniel
