Installed WordPress 5.5.1 and the latest version of the Block lab plugin. 2. The Gutenberg plugin is not installed. 3. I Use the Yandex Browser, also checked Chrome in the browser. 4. In the browser developer console of errors JS is not observed. 5. To avoid conflicts with other plugins or themes, I used ” Health Check & Troubleshooting”, but the problem remained with the default theme and disabled plugins. 6. I created a block and several fields. At first I thought the problem was in the field names, but changing the names didn’t fix the error. 7.

Sorry for not noticing that earlier. * If you’re using GCB 1.0.3 or earlier: * 1. Go to the page where you created the block 2. Don’t change anything, just click ‘Update’: [https://cldup.com/dxDMo2Em38.gif](https://cldup.com/dxDMo2Em38.gif) * On GCB 1.1.0 (released yesterday) and later, unfortunately you’ll probably have to move that block to the trash and recreate a new one with the exact same values, including the block name, field names, field types, block icon, etc… Viewing 8 replies - 1 through 8 (of 8 total) The topic ‘“the rest_validate_value_from_schema Function was called incorrectly”’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/block-lab_5c34e8.svg) * [Block Lab](https://wordpress.org/plugins/block-lab/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/block-lab/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/block-lab/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/block-lab/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/block-lab/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/block-lab/reviews/) ## Tags * [PHP Notice](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/php-notice/) * [php-error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/php-error/) * 8 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [Ryan Kienstra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryankienstra/) * Last activity: [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-rest_validate_value_from_schema-function-was-called-incorrectly/#post-13971234) * Status: resolved
