Closed as a duplicate report if something we already have a pull request for #12412

Please test that PR

Tested it and just about to report results

Re-opened as not related to the referenced issue

I do think it is related to the other issue even if it is not solved by it

I confirm the positions issue (access to the manager solved by #12412)

@dgt41
@Fedik
Can you look at this please?

The dropdown to select the Position does not work

There was never a dropdown in Hathor, a modal was there, so probably the scripts are not loaded?

@infograf768 https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/libraries/cms/form/field/moduleposition.php
this is the file that renders the modal

and thats why i think its related to the other issue i referenced

@dgt41
Yes, I know it is that file that renders the modal.
The issue is that we do not get a modal, but a new page and clicking on one position does not enter it in the field while closing that window.

We get a js error when clicking:
TypeError: window.parent.jSelectPosition_jform_position is not a function

hm, currently I cannot open module editing at all, got error
Fatal error: Access level to ModulesViewModule::$form must be public (as in class JViewLegacy) in <root>/administrator/components/com_modules/views/module/view.html.php on line 17

only me?

@Fedik that part is solved by #12412

@Fedik change private $form; to public

This page is full of notices!

Also line 52:
<?php echo $this->form->getInput('position'); ?></li> to <div style="display:none;"><?php echo $this->loadTemplate('positions'); ?></div><?php echo $this->form->getInput('position'); ?></li> solves the modal think, but the input is not changed by the script

The problem in media/system/js/moduleorder.js wich force Chosen script to the text field for Position (that is wrong).
Comes from #11992 or #11040

@dgt41 never use $linkedFieldEl.chosen().val() use just $linkedFieldEl.val()

fix there #12621

but, there another issue with Hathor, these "flying" ugly things 😄 :

@Fedik thanks for the fix! 👍
