 * I’m having an issue with using the Download Monitor Button Block within the Gutenberg
   editor. The error is triggered by something I’m not familiar with.
 * I was at first trying to use a custom template but have since reverted to the
   default template.
 * This is the error I see in the recovery mode:

 * WordPress also generates this error:

 * Can we make this a priority if it is a recorded issue? It is constantly taking
   down a new site I’m building and I don’t want to launch with a faulty plugin.

 * Yes, it’s a priority but my colleague is unavailable and so we will look into
   all issues hopefully next month.
 * For now, please use our shortcode.
