Editing goes to blank shortcode
-
When I tried to edit my pages today, I click on the edit (pencil) on the section and the Text Shortcode box opens but it’s BLANK and this happened on every page.

Hi, @scgrrescue

Where does the editing happen? On your front page? Or in the dashboard at
/wp-admin/post.php?post=x&action=edit? - Do you use any page builder plugins? If so, the best place to ask is their forum support page.
- Can you provide a screenshot for this problem?
Kind regards.
Hi @vladytimy
Thanks for the reply. It’s within the Dashboard and just started happening.
How do I attach a screenshot?
I don’t think we have added any page builder plugins since the last time I logged in.You can use https://imgbb.com/ or other similar site to upload your screenshot and post the link here.
I think you forgot to include your screenshot link 😊
So, the screenshot you provided shows a feature that WordPress doesn’t have in its core, so I assume you are either using a page builder plugin or your theme offers you these features (Editable Sections) and it’s malfunctioning.
I would normally ask you what theme you use, but it seems you use a custom made theme
goldenpaws. As well as a custom made plugingoldenpaws. (I assumed you are facing this issue on the site you have on your profile).I would suggest debugging plugins by
- disabling all plugins and enable them one by one OR
- installing “Health Check”: https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/ On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and change the theme for JUST you, while you’re still logged in, without affecting normal visitors to your site. You can then use its admin bar menu to turn on/off plugins and themes one at a time. See https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/
If the problem persists after disabling all plugins, then it’s your theme and I advise you to contact the developer that created the theme for you.
Hope this helps.
Hi @vladytimy
We are all volunteers and building a new site as the old one “goldenpaws” is old. I am using the Whiskers theme – staging1.scgrrescue.org
Thanks for the suggestions – I will try it.Your theme has indeed a content composer that might be in conflict with one of your plugins. I recommend the above steps to find out if a plugin is causing you the problem.
Also, your theme might not be compatible with wp 5.6 but since you use a commercial theme, please go to their official support channel.

Forum volunteers are not given access to commercial products, so they would not know why your commercial theme is not working properly. Commercial products are not supported in these forums.
Kind regards!
