Google gears script conflicton wordpress 2.6 (beta 1 and 2)

  • wp-gearsI’m running a test for wordpress 2.6 beta1 & beta2 on my development server when Firebug throw this unexpected error while on the WP Admin dashboard (see the attachment).

    The error notices is a total garbage, its something I’m not familiar with.

    What surprised me is not the actual javascript errors but because google gears files is register as default wordpress scripts and running in the background, loaded via wp_default_scripts action hook filters (ref: script-loader.php Line:195) and there is no possible way to disabled this script from being loaded without editing the main files.

    This was tested on Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008062315 (Gentoo) Firefox/3.0 & Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.15) Gecko/20080623 Firefox/2.0.0.15

    More options

    Google gears is a third party provider for wonderful client storage applications (Structured client-side storage) and by all meant not all end-user will be using this features (because some are really concern with their privacy).

    IMHO its a good practice to have an options to disabled google gears (not running in the background) and should be handle like the XML-RPC settings in WP 2.6.

    hope to see more clean version of wordpress for 2.6 release.
