Managing widgets into the customizer is not possible when BuddyPress 2.6.0-alpha is activated

[imath]

For a reason i still ignore: the admin-ajax url returns a 500 internal server error ??

What's sure is switching to 2.4 branch is bringing back the possibility to manage widgets within the customizer. So it's a bug introduced by 2.5.

See screenshot:

If i remove add_action( 'bp_customize_register', 'bp_email_init_customizer' ); then it's possible to manage widgets within the customizer. So i guess it's narrowing the investigation field to the Email Feature

I cannot duplicate this on 2.5.x or trunk; I am able to move around widgets in the Customizer, edit widget properties and save.

Tested on WP 4.4.2. Haven't tested WP trunk yet.

I'm using WP trunk (4.5). Probably the new feature that allowes part refreshes ?

Add the search widget, try to edit the widget title, and admin-ajax.php should return a 500 internal error.

This is some more infos about the error:
PHP Fatal error: Class 'BP_Customizer_Control_Range' not found in /path/to/bp-core-customizer-email.php on line 65

Autoloader related?

[imath]

There's a good chance yes, because i've just checked out on branch 2.5 and there's no problem with it.

[imath]

Branch 2.5 is ok. Problem appeared in 2.6-alpha.

I confirm it's an "autoload" issue. The attached patch is fixing the issue, but i'm unsure it's the best way to solve it.

Thanks for debugging, @imath. I missed this when building the autoload whitelist.

In 10684:

Add BP_Customizer_Control_Range to autoload list.

Props imath.
