• I have WordPress 5.1.1 with Divi theme installed, and recently my Gutenberg editor seems to be causing errors on my pages and posts. I cannot edit or create them.

    The error I receive is: The editor has encountered and unexpected error.

    All of my plugins are updated and I’ve tried disabling them all and still get the error. I installed the Disable Gutenberg plug in and that prevents the error because it replaces it with the classic editor, but I enjoyed the Gutenberg editor and want to be able to use it.

    At any point, did you also have the Gutenberg plugin installed? And, are you using Firefox?

    If so, try clearing Firefox’s localstorage following the steps at https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/wordpress-gutenberg-editor-crashes/#post-11395980

    This is sadly a compound of two bugs between the last release of the Gutenberg plugin and the Firefox browser.

    The problem in Gutenberg is being fixed: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/14706

    Meanwhile, clearing localstorage via conventional means should … clear localstorage. That is apparently not the case in Firefox right now, which is why you have to follow the more complicated method linked to.

    A quick note, Gutenberg is now built into WordPress as of WordPress 5. The Gutenberg plugin simply adds new beta features that are being tested. It is no longer required to use the block editor.
