Theme Customizer Stuck on "Saved" (can't save!)
-
Hi,
Have been developing a new version of our wordpress site, and therefore making lots of changes and customizations, using a theme we developed with a few extra settings in the Customize menu, only to find after a few hours, after hitting “save” (an innocuous setting change), that the Save button was, for want of a better word, stuck on.
To clarify, it looks like this:

Okay, I thought, this must be a caching issue. But it doesn’t look like it is:
1) Went incognito in Chrome (the browser I was using) and no change (after re-logging in)
2) Cleared browser cache, history, everything, restarted browser, logged in.Neither worked.
3) Opened /wp-admin/customize.php in other browsers (including the ludicrous Microsoft Edge).
Still not working.
4) I then even tried opening another WordPress website (the site I was working on was a dev version at a secret subdirectory), and even <i>that</i> didn’t work, which suggests this is a local issue, not related to the server, but one which follows around, browser to browser, and site to site.
Still not working.
This is on a relatively new Windows 10 machine. The website is on a standard LAMP stack, with latest version of WP and all plugins. It was working for months (not being customised often) and then several hours, with no issue. Then stopped working.
I just wondered if:
a) anyone else had suffered this issue; and
b) there is a known solution?I found a similar “resolved” post which was not exactly the same, and which appeared not to have an actual suggested resolution. e.g. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-customizer-not-saving-issue-very-strange-one-any-idea
I will come back and post how this was fixed if and when a solution is discovered!
