Magento Extension not work properly on backend - magento

I have an issue with Ves Contentslider of VenusTheme as it dose not load properly on backend. It still works fine on front end but we cannot do any configuration as it's control panel does not load the content. This is pretty weird as we have not changed any thing in our site recently. Please have a look at the screen shot below to have better understanding. Thank you in advance.
Screen shot

I just fixed this issue and thanks to the Venus Theme team for the quick and accurate suggestion. I did compress the js&css files and it stop the website rendering the js&css codes properly. That is why the configaration panel did not load on the admin site. So, I just need to go to the back end and navigate to Configuration/Advanced/Developers/JavaScript Settings(CSS Settings) and chose No option for the Merge JavaScript Files(Merge CSS Files). Then everything work perfectly again. This is good to know when we consider compress our CSS and JavaScript files. Cheers

Inserted SWF file loads and after a few secons turns white and unresponsive

I have created a simple working gallery in Flash CS6 with AS3 and published it in SWF.
Then I've inserted it with Dreamweaver into a empty HTML file and uploaded it to my host.
The problem is that it loads and works but goes white after a few seconds, when i right click it, it reacts like a regular flash.
Refreshing doesn't help it stays white and doesn't even work for those few seconds after the first load.
My host is Hostinger Polska. I will provide any information if needed.
EDIT
I've just found out with the help of the chrome dev tools that my SWF is canceled when loading the site but still i have no idea why.

Your swif file works fine but the way you embed it is wrong.
Remove all that dirty html and follow the manual here:

Website with a very slow load time on every page

http://www.puppykisses.org/
i made a WordPress page for a client, and for some reason it is taking over a minute to load the page. The only thing that I could think of being the problem is the amount of photos that he inserted into the slider up top on the home page. It looks like all those pictures need to load before anything else pops up. But then I click on Contact or any other page that has no real images to speak of, and the problem is still there. Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to fix this. thanks!
Like #David said, its the initial request (the source for the page) that is giving you the issues. This means it is unlikely an issue with hosting, and most likely an issue with your code. I would go through any plugins you have installed and disable them one-by-one, and slowly start commenting out your own custom dynamic code bit by bit, till you see what is taking so incredibly long. Then rewrite/excise that code from the site.
Start With the Basics
Keep the number of WordPress plugins you use to a minimum
Get a Proper Hosting Provider
Remove Unnecessary Code From WordPress Header -> http://goo.gl/yfRcF
Use firebug and click Network tab to check loading speed for each files
Check Suggestion how to improve website speed -> http://goo.gl/FtiX3
Install WP Super Cache plugin -> http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-super-cache/
*If you use gallery try to use image thumbnail rather than load whole images size

WYSIWYG buttons don't show in IE for CKEditor

I have a fresh installation of Liferay on Tomcat and in IE7 it doesn't show the buttons for visual editing in the editor when I try to edit content.
It works on in Firefox or Chrome.
Does anyone have an idea why would that happen? I am not sure where to dig, I don't see javascript exceptions and it doesn't look like the buttons are even populated in IE. It is hard to debug IE problems since I don't have a tool like Firebug there.
I downloaded the 6.1 and still have the same problem, adding the URLs of what I see. Looks like IE only has the text box and in the DOM I don't see the same things that I see in FF.

Update on this:
I checked with some people in our organization and they have the buttons on their browser.
I checked the version of the IE browser and it's the same down to the last digit. Properties are the same as well. The only difference is that I have some plugins installed that the other browser doesn't. I tried disabling all the plugins but it didn't help.
The suspect plugin is Google Chrome Frame (ChromeFrame BHO). Can someone please try to add this plugin and see if it messes things up? The disabling it doesn't help.
Liferay CE 6.0 contains few bugs within the WYSIWYG editor integration.
One issue with IE is LPS-16004 (solution included). This might be the same problem as you are experiencing.
I remember we had also problem with javascript race condition in editor initialization, which sometimes loads the editor incorrectly.
But I strongly suggest you to move to Liferay CE 6.1 as it is much more stable.
Ok, I finally figured it out, so if someone has the same problem, here is the reason - we have Google Chrome Frame plugin installed in our organization, but it only works on white-listed domain names. In this case the domain the site was on wasn't whitelisted, but the portal looked at the agent string and saw chromeframe there and assumed it can use it as chrome browser, which broke things.
Right now I will try to white-list the domain and see if it works. Another solution would be to try and find a place where we look for the agent string and fix it there, not sure where this place is.

Google Translate Breaks Stylesheet in Firefox

I am helping a client with an eCommerce site (runs on ProStores from eBay).
The issue is that the site's base stylesheet is breaking (being disabled) when the page is translated with the Google Translate widget. This only happens in Firefox. Chrome, IE(6-9), Opera and Safari are all fine.
Translate in FF was working prior to some changes we made recently: mostly graphical, some additions to the stylesheet. I had to tip-toe around their templates which were built with tables, outdated code etc. so I am overwhelmed when trying to troubleshoot this.
Here is a link to the site: http://www.myfantasticbags.com
(open in FF and use google translate in the header area to see the issue)
Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem and much frustration with this.
The problem I was having was that it was translating my website's font-resizers - From 'large' to 'grande' etc. which was throwing off the font-resize element and entire site.
Try adding a class="notranslate" to any elements you think may be translating and throwing off your stylesheet.
Hope this helps!
Korey
Add class="skiptranslate" to the head tag.
If you also have a link to a print preview style sheet, so your visitors can see how pages will print, try this: Putting the link to your external stylesheet inside a div with class="notranslate", may not only fix the translation in Firefox but also when flipping back and forth between your print preview and default CSS in all browsers. I know that divs in the head tags are atypical, but I don't see any problem arise from that.

Firefox - log of which files (CSS / JS / images) returned a 404 error?

I have a rather hectic situation in which my client has given me a bunch of files and said to put them all on the server and link to the main CSS files only. These in turn use #import and alike. The page does not look much like they think it should. Does anyone know where I can find a log of which requests (to CSS / JS / image files) returned a 404 and which ones were found, or tell me what extension to install to give me a list of files? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Richard
Use Firebug's net panel.
Use Google Chrome. Go to the spanner and click Tools > Developer Tools. In the resultant panel at the bottom of your window go to Resources. Fire in your request. Look at the bottom right for a red cross. Click it. This will show all your 404s.
I have just found an addon called HTTPFox. It seems pretty good and tells me exactly what the result is for each file. It does exactly what I need it to do without the need to open another browser.
Hope this helps someone in the future.
