In reply to: Updating failed JSON error after 5.7 update. block editorThe plug in solution has already been tested and the theme has already been reset to default. The site is only 5 weeks old. It was working perfectly fine before the update.

In reply to: Updating failed JSON error after 5.7 update. block editorNo it doesn’t. All it says is remove inactive plugins (i just deactivated 2 due to trouble shooting) and this:
Your .htaccess file does not contain all recommended security headers. HTTP Strict Transport Security Content Security Policy: Upgrade Insecure Requests X-XSS protection X-Content Type Options Referrer-Policy Expect-CTCould this have something to do with it? If so, how can I add these things and why don’t they get added automatically? Thank you.

In reply to: Updating failed JSON error after 5.7 update. block editorHello, thank you for your response. Everything you have listed has been addressed: permalinks reset, site health – good, etc.
Please elaborate on “An issue related to Rest API could also cause the JSON response error on your website”. I have no idea how to address this. What are the steps?
I have spent about 2 days on this problem now after WordPress updated to 5.7 on April 20, 2021. It was working perfectly before. It is still not working after everything recommended here. I also purchased an SSL certificate around the same time, so for a while I was thinking that it’s some sort of a conflict with that. I HAVE been able to narrow down that it’s the TYPE of link it doesn’t like and it is the Custom HTML block that is causing the issue in block editor. When I tried putting a simple piece of html in there it worked fine, but it is blocking my affiliate links from Amazon. One is a div, and one is is iframe. However, I can use a standard http link and link it to Amazon without problems.
This problem does not appear in classic editor at all which makes me think the issue is with the block editor and not with the link.
So for now, my workaround is using classic editor and adding the links directly to the code. I cannot go back to block editor after to edit because it will destroy the links in the document and fail to save and publish. What a frustrating experience and a huge waste of time, especially when everything was working fine prior to this update.
