 * Hi All,
 * I’ve updated to the new version of wordpress and i keep getting an error when
   writing my posts. It keeps happening more frequently than ever. i write something
   and save it then i get the error. I also cannot add a media and text box to my
   post. This is the error WordPress gives me.
 *     ```
