SimpleMDE extension is not working and breaks the website.

gurjyot

I am using Flarum on localhost and installed SimpleMDE using composer. It installed successfully and then I activated the extension from admin section. A popup occurred saying "Please wait", after that I was in the admin section (til that point everything was good). Now as I clicked website title to go to the homepage, the layout was completely broke. Although, the admin section is still working fine if I access it using the URL.

Update: I can't even uninstall the extension. Whenever I click on uninstall it says "Oops! Something went wrong. Please reload the page and try again.".

Make sure you clear the cache:

php flarum cache:clear

In case you have cloudlfare flush the cache there too.
Then hard clear your browser cache using ctrl/command f5.

luceos It worked, never thought that cache can play such a vital role.
I have one more query, you replied to my post but how come I never got the notification for this? In settings also I have enabled all types of notifications still I didn't receive the notification.

luceos

gurjyot you have to get mentioned or you have to follow the discussion.

I mentioned you now.

But, I actually started this discussion so shouldn't I be following this discussion automatically? It's kind of weird that I created a topic and I have to separately follow it as well otherwise I'll not be notified.
Just want to know your thoughts on this.

gurjyot I guess we need a "Automatically follow discussion I start" option under user settings.

luceos Yes, something like that would make a lot of sense. So where should this be reported or requested? I mean should this be requested as feature request in a new discussion?
