    When using the Appearance Editor to edit my theme files, when I hit Update File, I get the error:

    Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.

    Disabling all my add-ins and switching to Twenty Seventeen fixes the issue. Reactivating my theme (a Gravida Pro child) does not bring the problem back. By selectively reactivating plugins, I’ve isolated the issue to the miniOrange 2-Factor Authentication plugin. Once I activate that, the theme editor fails again.

    I’ve read elsewhere on the WordPress.org forum that this is a known issue: under WordPress 4.9, plugins that call session_start() too often or in the wrong place can cause the editor to fail.

    Is this a known error with the plugin? And can we expect an update that fixes it?
