 * Hi,
    After I updated to WordPress 5.6 I get an error “Updating failed. The response
   is not a valid JSON response.” when using the plugin. Is there any way to troubleshoot?
 * Thanks!

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for your support.
    We have not reproduced anything on our side. I invite
   you to delete and reinstall the plugin to solve the problem. It should not cause
   this kind of problem.

 * Hi,
    I tried disabling, enabling the plugin with no success. I disabled litespeed
   cache(I am using OpenLitespeed server), all in one wp security and perfmatters
   with no success. I got the same error when using the meta for Pinterest plugin,
   here’s what they say about the error: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-for-5-6-gutenberg/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/update-for-5-6-gutenberg/)
 * There needs to be an image in the post for the error to pop up.
 * Also, can I disable the plugin in the post-editing screen and use it only in 
   the Media screen.
    Thanks
