Fatal Error at line 3090 issue

Hello,

I have just updated the website I maintain and after I did so I was trying to do a “live preview” of another theme so I could customize it and I got this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method _WP_Editors::enqueue_default_editor() in /home/uucame5/public_html/uuaugusta/wp-includes/general-template.php on line 3090

I thought it was a thing specifically for this site because I have been having an issue with backing up some of the files. However, on another site I have (basically a sandbox) to look at themes and test things out before I start working on the main site, it has the exact same error and it ONLY did this after I updated to WordPress 4.8 so obviously this is related to that. I have cleared my cache and nothing has worked.

Can someone please help so I can get this resolved?

Thanks,
Erica

I recommend asking the author of the theme. Make sure the theme is compatible with WP 4.8

With all due respect I have several themes installed that I have been looking at to update my site with. I had NO problems with live preview before the update. Now, I do. Several of these themes are new and I do not think they would not be compatible. I have seen other posts from just a few days ago with this error in other posts in regard to widgets. That leads me to believe that something specific is wrong with 4.8

I hope a patch is coming soon.

To give an example I have tried several versions of the “Catch” theme. In particular two types that were mentioned specifically in their support forum as being compatible. Yet, I still come up with the same error, so it’s not me or the theme. It’s the update.

Is there any update on a patch or what is the process to roll back to the previous version–the one that worked.

I am getting this error everytime I try to hit Appearance, Customize, in Twenty Ten, Customizr, Twenty Eleven Themes. There is a problem in 4.8.

I noticed that the CK Editor plugin caused a lot of problems when I first updated and I deactivated that and things started to smooth out. If you have that plugin then deactivate it and see how things go.

Disabled CKEditor and the error went away. Thanks.
