    I didn’t work on this yesterday (it was a holiday here in Europe and I was out hiking) but today, lo and behold, it works without problems.

    So I didn’t need to reboot the server but needed to reboot … myself? 🤣

    Joking apart, I greatly appreciate your help!

    Ok – I see the console and can inspect individual elements but I don’t see any error messages or problems there. I’ll keep digging though

    Right! I didn’t realise this is what you meant re adding terms outside of the editor. Silly of me – and I’ve checked and I can add terms there. I can also see the post count for each term.

    Your screen shot is exactly what I used to see and no longer do; it’s reassuring to see you can see these because it clearly is a matter of something on my side, and not related to the CPT UI plugin, I guess.

    I think there is something wrong with my server because I can no longer see stats either so I’m looking into this too. How do I get to the console tab? I’m technical enough to be dangerous 🙂

    Cool questions – and here are my answers:

    1 – the settings are still saved. The CPT UI still shows the taxonomies correctly registered. And when I look at the list of (past) custom types, the columns show me the right data in the right columns for the custom taxonomies. This tells me the data is there in the database and is correct.

    2 – I don’t know how to create terms without the editor screen. I haven’t tried this.

    3 – In previous post types, the custom taxonomies do not appear so I cannot change the fields. Example: For an eatery (custom post type), I set up the “Cuisine” (Custom taxonomy) so a restaurant can be tagged as “Indian” or “Sushi”. For old post types, the custom taxonomy does not appear in edit mode but it displays correctly on the web (see link in my previous comment).

    4 – I did not change the capability type. Haven’t messed around with the CPT UI settings lately as I haven’t needed to.

    5 – CPT UI > Tools data is: POSTS:

    {“eatery”:{“name”:”eatery”,”label”:”Restaurants”,”singular_label”:”Restaurant”,”description”:”Restaurants, bistros, bars and coffee shops!”,”public”:”true”,”publicly_queryable”:”true”,”show_ui”:”true”,”show_in_nav_menus”:”true”,”delete_with_user”:”false”,”show_in_rest”:”true”,”rest_base”:””,”rest_controller_class”:””,”rest_namespace”:””,”has_archive”:”true”,”has_archive_string”:”eateries”,”exclude_from_search”:”false”,”capability_type”:”post”,”hierarchical”:”false”,”can_export”:”true”,”rewrite”:”true”,”rewrite_slug”:””,”rewrite_withfront”:”true”,”query_var”:”true”,”query_var_slug”:””,”menu_position”:”5″,”show_in_menu”:”true”,”show_in_menu_string”:””,”menu_icon”:”dashicons-food”,”register_meta_box_cb”:null,”supports”:[“title”,”editor”,”thumbnail”,”excerpt”,”custom-fields”,”author”],”taxonomies”:[“category”,”post_tag”,”cuisine”],”labels”:{“menu_name”:”Eateries”,”all_items”:”All eateries”,”add_new”:”Add new”,”add_new_item”:”Add new eatery”,”edit_item”:”Edit eatery”,”new_item”:”New eatery”,”view_item”:”View eatery”,”view_items”:”View eateries”,”search_items”:”Search eateries”,”not_found”:”No eateries found”,”not_found_in_trash”:”No eateries found in bin”,”parent”:”Parent eatery”,”insert_into_item”:”Insert into eatery”,”uploaded_to_this_item”:”Uploaded to this eatery”,”filter_items_list”:”Filter eateries”,”items_list”:”List of eateries”,”name_admin_bar”:”Eatery”,”item_published”:”Eatery publshed”,”item_published_privately”:”Eatery published privately”,”item_reverted_to_draft”:”Eatery reverted to draft”,”item_scheduled”:”Eatery scheduled”,”item_updated”:”Eatery updated”,”parent_item_colon”:”Parent eatery”,”featured_image”:””,”set_featured_image”:””,”remove_featured_image”:””,”use_featured_image”:””,”archives”:””,”items_list_navigation”:””,”attributes”:””},”custom_supports”:””,”enter_title_here”:”Add eatery”},”solo-item”:{“name”:”solo-item”,”label”:”Solo Items”,”singular_label”:”Solo Item”,”description”:”Solo activities like books, TV series or films to enjoy in your own company”,”public”:”true”,”publicly_queryable”:”true”,”show_ui”:”true”,”show_in_nav_menus”:”true”,”delete_with_user”:”false”,”show_in_rest”:”true”,”rest_base”:””,”rest_controller_class”:””,”rest_namespace”:””,”has_archive”:”false”,”has_archive_string”:””,”exclude_from_search”:”false”,”capability_type”:”post”,”hierarchical”:”false”,”can_export”:”false”,”rewrite”:”true”,”rewrite_slug”:””,”rewrite_withfront”:”true”,”query_var”:”true”,”query_var_slug”:””,”menu_position”:”6″,”show_in_menu”:”true”,”show_in_menu_string”:””,”menu_icon”:”dashicons-book-alt”,”register_meta_box_cb”:null,”supports”:[“title”,”editor”,”thumbnail”],”taxonomies”:[],”labels”:{“menu_name”:”Solo items”,”all_items”:”All Solo Items”,”add_new”:”Add solo item”,”add_new_item”:”Add new Solo Item”,”edit_item”:”Edit Solo Item”,”new_item”:”New Solo Item”,”view_item”:”View Solo Item”,”view_items”:”View Solo Items”,”search_items”:”Search Solo Items”,”not_found”:”No Solo Items found”,”not_found_in_trash”:”No Solo Items found in bin”,”parent”:”Parent Solo Item:”,”featured_image”:”Featured image for this Solo Item”,”set_featured_image”:”Set featured image for this Solo Item”,”remove_featured_image”:”Remove featured image for this Solo Item”,”use_featured_image”:”Use as featured image for this Solo Item”,”archives”:”Solo Item archives”,”insert_into_item”:”Insert into Solo Item”,”uploaded_to_this_item”:”Upload to this Solo Item”,”filter_items_list”:”Filter Solo Items list”,”items_list_navigation”:”Solo Items list navigation”,”items_list”:”Solo Items list”,”attributes”:”Solo Items attributes”,”name_admin_bar”:”Solo Item”,”item_published”:”Solo Item published”,”item_published_privately”:”Solo Item published privately.”,”item_reverted_to_draft”:”Solo Item reverted to draft.”,”item_scheduled”:”Solo Item scheduled”,”item_updated”:”Solo Item updated.”,”parent_item_colon”:”Parent Solo Item:”,”item_trashed”:””},”custom_supports”:””,”enter_title_here”:”Add Solo Item”}}

    I tried disabling the plugin and re-enabling it but that simple reboot didn’t have any effect.

    I have 3 sites – They’re on WP5.2.2 which I installed on 19 June. I had experienced the problem on all 3 and now I haven’t seen the problem since approx 15 June.

    A

    I’m happy to report I haven’t seen the problem for the past 3 weeks or so. Something’s changed – and for the better

    Hmm – I see your point, yes.

    And also it’s something that started happening recently (approx 4-5 weeks). So it must be tied to a PHP or WordPress update, right?

    Thanks David – I’m seeing this too and haven’t been able to see a pattern emerge. I can tell you it happens more frequently than once a week; (About every 3 days is my estimate)
    Might I suggest something?
    You write that the plugin doesn’t cope with a lack of settings. Could it be modified so that if there are no settings, it defaults to *something*. If so, something would be better than nothing and it wouldn’t cause the weird errors. Does this make sense?
