Where are you uploading from? Any other details you can provide here?
Could you also please provide your Site Health information to help us determine what might be causing this problem? To get that, you can go to your WordPress dashboard area and go to: Tools > Site Health > Info, then Press the “Copy site info to clipboard” button, and paste the results here.
Hi, sorry short info, i was in a hurry.
I was uploading som images to a gallery on a page when i noticed that it was extremly slow and som images were ignored. I got the json error message and i also could not save changes in a page. I then rolled back to 3.3.3 and everything worked as usual.
WordPress is in a .htaccess password protected folder.
Here is the health-dump

Thank you, i’m amazied by your quick support. I rellaly like the plug-in. Personally i’m fine with 3.3.3 but i thought you should know.
If it’s possible to reproduce the issue, the specific JSON error message given may help narrow it down.
Sometimes a more detailed error message will display if
define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );is changed todefine( 'WP_DEBUG', true );inwp-config.phpSometimes a more detailed error message will display if one opens the browser’s web inspector, then goes to the Network tab, then selects the most recent Network request after the form has been submitted (error in response to submitting the form).
If there is custom code installed via
WPCode Liteplugin or in the theme, etc., that could also cause an error.The error message was something like “not a valid JSON response”.
I installed the update in my local environment and i worked just fine so i guess it has to do with some server configuration, i resently moved the site to a new host.
I will give it a new try on the server soon.
Ok, so now I installed the update on the server, and guess what! Everything works.
My guess is that it had something to do with that the folder is passwordprotected and or some cashing.
Sorry for waisting your time.
