I’m working with FWP 6.1.2 and I’m for the first time I can recall, I’m getting an Auto Clearfix error, but only on the page I’m updating. All of the existing pages are fine.
The error message states that the tag has no properties and then lists a bunch of code I can’t copy and paste.

I just checked and the site publishes fine IF I remove Auto Clearfix from the page I’m updating. Weird.

Do you have any other Actions on the page?

Hi Joe. Thanks for responding. I am using a few actions.
Retitle Page
CSS3 Hyphenation
Favicon
CSS Menus
Crowbar
I probably should have posted a link, but I was under deadline so I was more concerned about fixing the problem then documenting it. Sorry.
FWIW, duplicating the page didn’t work, since whatever was wrong was copied as well. I ended up deleting and rebuilding a section of nested divs that contained a lot of clears and floats. Not sure what happened, but something got corrupted.
Also, if the Auto Clearfix action is so important, why isn’t it built into FWP?
And, why isn’t there a column in the Edit Actions box that indicates the actions version number. That would be really helpful. A bonus would be something an error message indicating out-of-date actions, but that would likely require a lot of work, and maintenance.

Because it is at the bottom of the action palette window. I understand what you are saying ie it would be nice to see a list of all the version numbers but it it is there.

I didn’t realize that. Thanks Dave. It would still be helpful to have them all in one place though.

If you don’t mind a user interface only a nerd could love, there’s this little Ruby script I wrote a year or more ago:
http://scripty.walterdavisstudio.com/get_versions.zip
To use, decompress the zip file, and open up the Terminal application (Applications/Utilities/Terminal) on your Mac. In Terminal, type the letters cd (followed by a space) then drag the Finder icon of the decompressed get_versions folder into the Terminal window. The command line will expand to look something like this:
yourname$ cd /Users/yourname/Downloads/get_versions
Press return, and your terminal will be “in” that folder. Type the following command to install the Nokogiri XML parser:
gem install nokogiri
If you immediately get an error saying that you don’t have the “gem” command, then skip to the PS at the bottom where you will get the one-line fix for all that ails your Ruby environment. If not, you should see exactly nothing for a couple of minutes while Nokogiri installs, followed by some lines of explanation of what was installed (and, usually, some Unicode errors from the documentation installer).
Once all that is done, you can use this tool. If you are still using Freeway 5.5 or later, then issue this command:
ruby ./get_versions.rb
If you are using Freeway 6 or later, then the command you will use is:
ruby ./get_versions_6.rb
You will see a list of all the Actions that the script was able to read, and their version number. Note that encoded Actions are not readable by the script, so they get skipped. These may include Actions you paid for, or Actions that were encoded to make them usable on Express.
Hope this helps,
Walter
PS: To fix your Ruby environment, type the following (exactly!) in Terminal:
\curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby=1.9.3
You will see a bunch of explanation and colorful text, and then you will magically have a working Ruby environment. You may be prompted to install the GCC interpreter, but the error message is very simple and if you copy-and-paste what it tells you to do into your terminal, you will get everything ready to go.

Thanks Walter, I appreciate your help. Although I’d love to be able to see all my action version numbers at once, the risk of ME screwing around with Terminal is way too high.
I’ll wait until Joe and his team add this feature to FWP. Is that okay with you Joe?

I too went through hours of struggling before finding this was a known glitch. Is there an answer, as this is not the only necessary action that FWP does not have by default?
