* Hi, there is an issue on WP Widgets page:
* **Notice: Function wp_enqueue_script() was called incorrectly. “wp-editor” script should not be enqueued together with the new widgets editor(
wp-edit-widgets or wp-customize-widgets). Please see Debugging](https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/”>Debugging)
in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 5.8.0.)
in C:\wamp64\www\wordpress\wp-includes\functions.php on line **_6085_
* I think that the problem is this one (debug console):
* `**deprecated.js?ver=1aa7a2722e5853bb3a37:115** wp.editPost.PluginSidebar is
deprecated since version 6.6. Please use wp.editor.PluginSidebar instead.`
* WP 6.6.1

* Hi there,
* Not sure I understand your question, I don’t see the the error related to GB.
* What theme are you using? Can you show us a screenshot of the error page? And
if you disable all other plugins except GB, does the error still occur?
* Let me know 🙂

* The error is displayed with any classic theme. I have tried changing several,
for example Astra (free version).
When I disable the Generateblocks plugin the
error disappears.
* I think that the plugin uses a deprecated function of wp-editor or wp-edit-posts.
* Obviously WP_DEBUG = true

* Thanks

and it’s the same…

* Hum…I can not replicate the issue, I tried with Astra free theme as well, didn’t
see this error. And I searched the entire GB codes, it does not use `wp.editPost.
PluginSidebar` function at all. So I doubt it’s a GB issue.
* Have you tried disabling all your plugins except GB to test?
* Let me know 🙂

* mmmh very strange… Yes I disabled all plugins except generateblocks. I’ll try
to make a local fresh WP installation and I’ll try It again.
* I’ll let you know in a few time.

* Thanks, please keep us updated! And can you also try with GeneratePress free
theme?

* I created a fresh WP installation, same error.
* Astra or GeneratePress Theme, the error appears only with Generateblock plugin
enabled.
I don’t know if the _wp.editPost.PluginSidebar _error is related but
I consider the first PHP error.**WP_DEBUG = trueWP v6.6.1PHP v8.3.6Wamp Server

* I tried to disable and enable again generateblocks and these errors into console
debug appears:
*
`Store "core/interface" is already registered. data.min.js?ver=7c62e39de0308c73d50c`
* `wp.editPost.PluginSidebar is deprecated since version 6.6. Please use wp.editor.
PluginSidebar instead. deprecated.min.js?ve…84915c5e8ae38964c:2`
* `select( 'core/edit-site' ).__experimentalGetPreviewDeviceType is deprecated
since version 6.5 and will be removed in version 6.7. Please use select( 'core/
editor' ).getDeviceType instead. deprecated.min.js?ve…84915c5e8ae38964c:2`
* I don’t know if they are in the plugin code, maybe they are part of wordpress
core, but there is something in the plugin that triggers these errors.

* Hi there,
* I can replicate the issue.
I’ll mark this for investigation and a potential bug
fix.Thanks for reporting , its not a critical issue so you can safely ignore
and just disable the debugging on the site to get rid of the error.

* Perfect, thank you.
I thought it was not a critical error but in development
it is really annoying and could also conflict with additional plugins or blocks.
* Have a nice day

* Yeah we just need to review why the patch we added to exclude the `wp-editor`
from the widget editor is no longer applying. But thanks for reporting.
