Classic Editor – Not Showing

    I had been having issues with a fresh installation of WordPress and the Classic Editor not showing (i’d just see blank space showing where it should be when editing a page).

    I tried working through several of the various forum posts attempting to fix the issue (e.g. disabling other plugins and using standard themes – but the problem still existed with a blank/standard/clean wordpress install). But it was this forum post: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/common-classic-editor-errors-and-how-to-fix-them/ by @azaozz that got me eventually to the solution (although he only pushed me in the right direction to find it).

    After investigating with the Jquery migration plugin i could indeed see there was an error on the pages where the editor should appear. Though didnt give any useful info apart from a Line no which i didnt understand how to read. This prompted me to open the Chrome developer console.

    Voila! This showed that there was and error occuring and gave me a clue as to why:

    Mixed Content: The page at ‘<URL>’ was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet ‘<URL>’. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

    It seems that an ‘insecure’ emoji (/wp-includes/js/wp-emoji-release.min.js?ver=5.7) was preventing the plugin to completing!

    I immediately investigated my Cloudflare SSL/TLS settings – noticing they were set to ‘Flexible’ – I changed setting to ‘Full’. And Classic Editor magically reappeared! Wow, it only took me a day to chase this around!

    Anyway, I hope this saves others the headache – I also wonder if there is something that can be done to with the ‘insecrure’ emoji file to make it secure, to remove this as an error entirely….??? I wonder if @azaozz can help with that one?

    Hello,

    I have made a new page “Joli Room” and added several images on my website Bluedrawing.net.
    I used an old page by modifying to view larger images because by making a new page didn’t work with viewing the enlarged images.
    Now, if I try to add images on “Joli Room” page, I am not able to view larger images from the updated new page “Joli Room”. The images are fixed.
    Previously, it was able to view enlarged images by clicking with the classic editor by using the classic editor.
    With the new page “Joli Room”, I cannot use the classic editor which I like.
    I still like to view the larger images by clicking.
    Please advise me.

    Thank you.
