My villager has one trade and it is locked. Is that a glitch?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I locked this villager's only trade and it won't unlock! It has been like that for a few hours. I logged out and back in too. Is that a glitch?

logging out and back in isn't going to help, neither is waiting. I'd kill the villager and hope it doesn't happen again with the next one.

I've noticed that there is a certain amount of trades you can make with a villager, once you have used up all these trades, the villager trading is useless. This was changed as of 14w02a where after a short while villagers will reopen their trades.

Not 100% sure on this, but the right-most trade might also be wheat. If it is wheat, do the trade once and the left option should unlock. Trades are normally only locked when a villager has 2 trades available, and doing the alternate one should unlock the other

@Seb that's why I'm confused, since there is only one trade available and this is it.@DatEpicCoderGuyWhoPrograms, what I mean by "locked" is that it has the red x and it won't allow me to trade with him.

NOTE: This is pre-1.14. Villager Trading Mechanics have now changed.
So the thing is that this is a legit outcome. After a few trades (2 or 3) the villager will no longer be willing to trade that specific item with you. Generally this will however open more trades. Unfortunately, there is a minute possibility that this may be the only available trade this particular villager offers.
Note 3: This is the chance that the given trade offer will be the last one given by a villager when its options are completely exhausted.
Sorry to say you just got unlucky...
EDIT As per the comments, here are the mechanics on "re-enabling" locked/disabled trades.
- If a player trades the last offer on the list and closes the GUI, waiting for particles to appear around the villager, all disabled offers are renewed with 2-12 additional uses added to them.
- It is possible for the final offer slot to be disabled, at which point no new offers can be generated and no existing offers can be renewed.

UPDATE: In later versions[Version needed] of the game, some villagers (primarily browncoats) will not have any trades at all. Right-clicking will not open any UI to trade. The only purpose for these villagers is farming.

Nice answer! If you have a farmer villager, the probability of starting with wheat and having it be the last offer would be16.0271% * .0005% = .0000801355%. That means 1 in 1,247,886 farmer villagers are like this one.
