Hi @filetiger,
Thanks for letting us know. Where did you get that version though? I can download beta2 but not that specific version. Also, do you see any errors on the screen? It seems to be working with the beta2 version found here: https://wordpress.org/news/2018/10/wordpress-5-0-beta-2/
version not found: http://prntscr.com/ldut3a
That version installs as part of the ‘bleeding nightlies’ option from the beta tester plugin. The previous day’s ‘nightly’ had the same reaction. The full error message is:
This page isn’t working
(my offline test site’s domain) is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500
Reload
(Reload button only refreshes the error message.)
I then hit Back and can return to the WP menu, deactivate the plugin, and I can edit pages/posts again. Just retested, but today’s beta is still beta2-43859. In this test, I deactivated all plugins except yours and WordPress Beta Tester, same result.
Hi @filetiger,
Do you know how to turn on debugging in wp-config? You might see a better error message:
define('SAVEQUERIES', true);
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
define('SCRIPT_DEBUG', true);
I believe I know the error though as someone else mentioned it here:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slideshows-no-longer-working-on-my-website/#post-10842529
If you have the same error then I’ll have the fix in the next release.
The symptoms in that other ticket don’t match this. Maybe.
That debug method (and others found at https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress ) don’t show more detail and don’t result in a log file.
Seeing this with themes Orvis, Twenty Nineteen, Twenty Seventeen. (Stopped after those 3.)
Hi @filetiger,
Thanks for the follow up. I still can’t seem to produce it. However, if it only breaks on the pages/posts then it must be related to our Gutenberg implementation. In admin/Gutenberg.php can you edit this line?
$locale_data = gutenberg_get_jed_locale_data('ml-slider');
And just update it to:
$locale_data = '';
That would confirm whether the other reported error I mentioned above and yours is the same. Then I can send out the fix in a release. Thanks
Also, do you have the Gutenberg plugin installed separate from the any that may be built in to WP? If so can you disable that and see if there’s a change? Thanks.
Making that change to the shorter line for $locale_data does stop the 500 error; pages and posts are editable again.
(Is that a fix, or a just a test?)
This worked in today’s new beta, 5.0beta3-43865.
To the other question: No Gutenberg plugin is installed, just the new native functionality. Again, test site, NO other plugins are activated during tests.
Okay, that’s a Gutenberg function we have in there, but maybe they renamed or removed it. Anyway, I’ll have that fixed in the next release. My fix will be different than what I sent above (I’ll write a backup function for it)
@kbat82 I think this is now fixed? If so, please do mark the topic as resolved.
I just removed MetaSlider and reinstalled with v 3.10.2. This looks fixed in WP 5.0-beta5-43909, was able to add/edit both posts and pages, default Gutenberg settings.
Looks good from here.
