 * Hi
    I’ve recently started using this plugin but now I’m getting the following
   error on all posts, popups, pages etc. I’m using WordPress 5.2 with Gutenberg
   5.6.1 and AAM 5.9.6.2 If I revert back to Gutenberg 5.2.0 the problem goes away.
 * Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function is_block_editor() on null

 * Hi Vasyl,
 * After updating AAM plugin, we are seeing the ‘The site is experiencing technical
   difficulties’ message. PHP logs show the following:
 * Uncaught Error: Class ‘AAM_Core_Config’ not found in /var/www/html/wp-content/
   plugins/advanced-access-manager/aam.php:122
 * Deleting/ReInstalling the AAM plugin (as has been suggested in several forums)
   is not a realistic solution for us because we have continuous integration setup
   on our websites (scheduled core/plugin updates). We’ve also seen this problem
   come back a few hours/days after deleting/reinstalling.
 * Can you suggest a more permanent solution?

 * [@redwolfmendoza](https://wordpress.org/support/users/redwolfmendoza/),
 * The AAM_Core_Config is part of the AAM plugin so if everything is installed properly,
   you should not experience this issue.
 * My only recommendation is to redeploy the/wp-content/plugins/advsnced-access-
   msnager folder and this time include all the files that come with official AAM
   Zip archive that you download from this WP repo.
 * Keep me updated if anything.

 * Thanks for the quick reply Vasyl! AAM is now working for us (at least for the
   moment). I’m adding this comment in hopes that it may help others:
 * It seems that completely deleting and then reinstalling the AAM plugin by itself–
   as opposed to bundling it with other plugin updates through an automated deployment–
   works most of the time. We still see the error above occasionally when re-deploying,
   but it is difficult to reproduce in our staging environment and does not happen
   at all in our local dev environments. It’s possible that our continuous integration
   server (Bamboo) may be caching certain parts of our repo during the build phase,
   but I don’t know if that is even a feature.
