Views UI doesn't work with jQuery 1.8 (jQuery update)

I've got the same issue...doesn't work with jquery 1.7 or 1.8

Same here, on dev versions.

I was getting white screen ajax errors with jquery 1.8 and have dropped back to 1.5 and the problem has disappeared.

I'm using jQuery Update set to 1.7, Production, and using the Google CDN. Views UI 'mostly' works, but some events do not get fired. Example, if I check Create label for a field, nothing happens. I have to downgrade jQuery to 1.5, modify my Views, and then change jQuery back.

Also, I've noticed that using different CDNs cause modules that rely on jQuery to behave in different ways.

Just wonder... how do we know if it's not jQuery Update issue rather than Views one? #5 suggests something strange happens with jquery itself.

brulain - So you say issue's title is wrong? It does not happen for me without jQuery Update. If you experience more universal problem, consider editing issue title and describing it a bit more.

I too am still experiencing the Views UI bug in v3.7 when I set jquery update to v1.8. When I click anything that brings up the views modal, the modal is aligned to the top left of the window and clicking any of the modal's action buttons (apply, cancel, remove) the page reloads with just JSON output.

This behavior is identical to how it was breaking with Views v3.6 and below (with Jquery 1.8), so I'm not sure what fix they're referring to on: http://drupal.org/node/1802198

Switching jquery to 1.5 or 1.7 seems to fix this issue, but 1.8 still breaks Views UI.

Same problem

For me the overlay dialogue in Views opens in the top-left and upon submitting just shows a load of code on the page. Basically it completely fails. Using jQuery 1.7 fixes the issue.

I'm finding that with anything above jQuery 1.5, everything seems to work perfectly, except for the fields that appear and disappear based on the value of checkboxes. (I'm using views 7.x-3.5 though)

We have the same problem webbymatt has.
When we use jQuery 1.7 or 1.8 Views UI stops working: the overlay dialogue in Views opens in the top-left, weight toggle for field disappears and, upon saving, we got JSON output and the views IS NOT saved.

I have the same problem as #13 except that it works with jQuery 1.7, just not 1.8. This is frustrating though, because I am trying to use other functionality that requires jQuery 1.8.

I managed to fix this by updating to the dev version of Jquery_update, It's a bug caused by JQuery UI calling old Jquery function names.
If you can't use the dev version you could also hack around it by using jQuery.curCSS = jQuery.css;

Thanks for the solution @Matthew Cooper. Unfortunately, Views Slideshow Cycle appears to not work with jQuery 1.8 either at this point so there is yet another problem I have to overcome. This issue could probably be marked as fixed though as that is a separate issue. I'll mark it as needs review and if anybody else can confirm that #15 fixes the issue I think they could safely mark this as fixed.

Upgrading to the dev version fixed this all for me. It allows you to use 1.8 for the site, and then 1.7 or lower for all admin pages, including the admin views page.

#1802198: Views UI breaks with jQueryUI 1.8.2

This needs to be fixed. I'm using a Bootstrap Admin theme which requires a newer version of jQuery to be used for the admin. Views' functionality is not working. I'm having the same checkbox-not-working issue as others on here. I need it to work with jQuery version 1.10.

I ended up just using the Bootstrap admin theme for non-admin roles. And using Drupal default jQuery for the admin role.

Ended up just using Drupal default jQuery in the admin, with the bootstrap theme for non-admin roles.

This is a good idea, but what to do when a contrib module requires an older version and you want to use bootstrap as well on your site.
