Hey jarxabi,
Thanks for reaching out!
Are you saying that when you are using the “code editor” the “Meta Boxes” section shown in this screenshot cannot be change to be larger or smaller? https://snipboard.io/4BC8mT.jpg
Does this happen with event posts specifically or do other post types (like pages or posts) also have the same issue?
There is some code in the plugin that tries to prevent either the content editor or the meta boxes from being fully minimized or maximized when the editor loads. The changes in recent WordPress versions can confuse users otherwise.
I’m not able to reproduce this as of yet but it could be a flaw in the code somewhere!
Thanks,
Craig
Hi!
I have only seen this problem in the events and only when you are editing one. The metaboxes don’t appear at the bottom, I send you an image https://ibb.co/x8MnBFmL. If you change to “visual editor” the metaboxes appear correctly https://ibb.co/zTpHbQMz .
Thank you!
OK great. Thanks for the details!
I’m not experiencing the same thing but let me see if something can be done regardless.
Can you tell me what theme you are using and whether or not you have any plugins that affect the block editor installed?
There is an update coming out next week so there will be an attempt to address this added.
Hi again,
Actually I can see this occurs when there is a significant amount of content in the code editor. That’s why the issue only appears when editing an existing event that has a lot of content.
After some digging, it seems this is a known issue with WordPress core. I have a workaround in the plugin to help with the meta box being too large or too small but it doesn’t fix the code editor as you’ve seen. Here is the related issue: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/79127
We’re adding a targeted workaround in the next plugin update so the code editor scrolls properly and meta boxes stay reachable at the bottom so you won’t need to wait for WordPress updates to fix it.
After updating, edit an existing event in Code editor and confirm you can reach the Event Details / Registration boxes. If anything still looks wrong, let me know your theme and any editor-related plugins.
I’m hoping to release today but otherwise it will be early Tuesday.
Thanks,
Craig
The update was just released. If you update to version 1.15 there is now the workaround to keep the meta box visible. Let me know if there is still any issue.
Hello!
Yes, you’re right. If the content in the code editor is short, the checkboxes are visible. However, when the text becomes longer, the boxes disappear.
I tried to update your plugin to the latest version, as you suggested, but no update is available yet on my site. It still shows the current version.
Thanks!
I suppose WordPress.org now waits a certain period before updates are available for security/safety reasons. You may need to check back from time to time.
Hi!
I have updated the plugin and now it is working correctly!! I can see the meta boxes even if the text code is long. Thank you!!
