Blocks Not saving after update
-
Hi,
I’m having a problem after yesterdays update. When I try to create a new block, it seems to work and I get the message as the “page was published” and the instructions to create the template, but when I try to open the newly created block (to edit) it is totally blank, as if nothing would have been saved to database. The block shows in the block list with the right title, but it is empty.
My site is hosted in Pantheon, and that may be important (Pantheon is not a regular LAMP server stack). I also have a local (non-pantheon) WP install, and that one seems to work fine. Also, the previous version was working fine in my Pantheon install.
Did as much troubleshooting as possible (disable/enable, uninstall/reinstall, cloned the environment and tested… same problem).
I hope you can help!! Thanks!!

Hi @garciagali,
Thanks a lot for letting me know about that.1. Could you please share a screenshot of what this looks like:
…but when I try to open the newly created block (to edit) it is totally blank, as if nothing would have been saved to database. The block shows in the block list with the right title, but it is empty.
2. Is there any console error in Gutenberg?
3. Could you please go to the page where you created the block (not Gutenberg), run this in the JS console, and paste the result for me:
wp.data.select( 'core/editor' ).getEditedPostContent()Thanks for your patience and details.
1. Have you tried this with a Core theme, like Twenty Twenty?
Of course, if it’s a production site, switching themes would be a hassle.
2. If you’re up for it, could you try this WP-CLI command whenever you see the bug:
wp post get <post id> --field=contentThe
<post id>will be in the URL: https://cldup.com/EWCCerkMfH.pngIt should be a JSON blob with fields, like you mentioned above.
All good about the Gutenberg plugin: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/gutenberg/
If it doesn’t sound familiar, you’re probably not using it. The functionality from the Gutenberg plugin is already in Core, it’s like a ‘beta tester’ plugin for new editor features.
Hm, interesting about containerized infrastructure.
That’s strange, I don’t see the bug on a Pantheon site, but I’ll keep testing: http://dev-kienstra.pantheonsite.io
Hi, I ran the cli command you requested and this is what it returns:
{"genesis-custom-blocks/test-3":{"name":"test-3","title":"test 3","excluded":[],"icon":"genesis_custom_blocks","category":{"icon":null,"slug":"text","title":"Text"},"keywords":[],"fields":{"test":{"location":"editor","width":"100","help":"","default":"","placeholder":"","maxlength":"","name":"test","label":"test","control":"text","type":"string","order":0}}}}I open the block and it still shows up blank, as if I was clicking on the “Add New” button, so much that instead of an “Update” Button, it has a “Publish” button (It was already published, and I’m clicking on the title link in the block list)
wp.data.select( 'core/editor' ).getEditedPostContent()still returns “”
opening and closing the block at least 3 times seems to do the trick, and then everything works fine…May be something with my db?? some corruption or something?? I tested on a local Pantheon site from a Multidev environment cloned from our production site.
I activated the twenty twenty theme (is not a production environment) and it still having the same behavior…
