    Hello,
    When editing a product we get this error in the console:

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘ace/ace’ of undefined
    at s (ace.js:1)
    at r (ace.js:1)
    at Object.i [as require] (ace.js:1)
    at ace.js:1
    at ace.js:1

    I believe it is related to the theme because when changing to default theme the error disappears.

    Hello,

    Sorry for the delay.
    Did you try to disable 3-rd party plugins?

    Hi,

    I have managed to track down the problem to Screets Live Chat, a plugin you have recommended with the theme.

    When Royal Theme is active and Screets Live Chat is inactivated: No error

    When Royal Theme is active and Screets Live Chat is Active:

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘ace/ace’ of undefined
    at s (ace.js:1)
    at r (ace.js:1)
    at Object.i [as require] (ace.js:1)
    at ace.js:1
    at ace.js:1

    When Storefront is active and Screets Live Chat is Active:

    ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘ace/ace’ of undefined
    at s (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at r (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at Object.i [as require] (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at ace.js?ver=5.2.1:3
    at ace.js?ver=5.2.1:10

    When Default Twentytwelve theme is active and Screets Chat is active:

    ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘ace/ace’ of undefined
    at s (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at r (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at Object.i [as require] (ace.js?ver=5.2.1:1)
    at ace.js?ver=5.2.1:3
    at ace.js?ver=5.2.1:10

    Not sure why in my previous message the error disappeared with default theme.

    Any way, is this something you could help me with or ask Screets Live Chat about. It seems to be an error on their side, but since the plugin comes with your theme, I am not sure how to reach them.

    Thanks!

    Kind regards,

    Marcus

    I am using it daily.

    That is not an option.

    You recommend the plugin so I think it should be fair that it works with the theme?

    Let me know how you can help me in this.

    I cannot talk to their support because I do not have a licence key with them..

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    I’ve checked your test site with Twenty Twelve theme and in browser console persist the same problem, so the problem does not relate to our theme.

    Hi Rose,

    I thought I have been talking to you all along. Maybe you have not paid attention.

    I showed you above that the problem is slightly different error when in your theme and other themes.

    As I told you before, I realise this is a screets chat problem. However, when contacting us this is what they say:

    “Thank you for contacting Screets.
    We only provide premium support for our customers who have valid license from Envato. I suggest you to contact with theme author or asking help WordPress community to fix the issue.”

    I have gotten Screets through the Royal theme. I expect it to work.

    I have tracked down the issue as you requested in your initial reply.

    Now I need help fixing the issue. If you have contact with Screets. Can you please talk to them about the issue. The plugin should work and it is not.

    I would expect you to help me get in touch with Screets or at least borrow me a “code” / api-key which I can contact them with.

    Thank you.

    Oh I see, I can send this request to our developers. Seems this error does not make an effect on work of site, I’ve tried to edit and publish a post. Please ignore this console message, until problem will be fixed in one of the next updates.

    Thank you for putting it thought to development. It would be nice also if you could contact screets live chat plugin authors so they know about this.

    I believe it is important.

    Thank you.
