Hello,
Thanks for the feedback!
Well, it’s hard to tell without any error message. It could be a compatibility issue with a third-party plugin too. I would recommend to enable the WP Debug mode (see documentation), it will help you to identify the cause of the issue.
To do so, you can add the following code in your wp-config.php file, right before the comment: “That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing”:
define('WP_DEBUG', true); // enable debug
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true); // enable error logs
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false); // don't show errors on screen
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */
This will log server errors in the file: /wp-content/debug.log.
Once the debug mode code has been added, try to trigger the error again, and open this file. You should see some error message. Please share it here.
You can read more about how to debug WordPress and ACF on our guide here.
Let me know if you found something!
Thanks!
Regards.

Thanks for the follow-up. I’m not getting any errors logged with debug turned on.
Edit: Nevermind. Will followup shortly.

Hello,
The error message says your Taxonomy try to execute the function update_attachment_publish_author() when a post is updated, but that function doesn’t exist (neither in WordPress or ACF source code). This suggests you have some custom configuration in your Taxonomy which point to this invalid function.
Here is the WordPress source code that trigger the error (from /wp-includes/taxonomy.php:3567):
if ( ! empty( $taxonomy->update_count_callback ) ) {
call_user_func( $taxonomy->update_count_callback, $terms, $taxonomy );
}
If you registered your taxonomy with ACF Extended, I would recommend to head over the “Tools > Taxonomies” admin menu, and check the “Update count callback” setting on each taxonomy.
By default, it should be empty. You’ll find more information about the update_count_callback setting on the register_taxonomy() documentation here.
I would also recommend to check your settings in your Taxonomies, see if you have anything unusual.
Thanks!
Regards.
