Plugin Editor Not working

  • Dear WordPress people
    Is there is any way to bypass your new feature. It basically makes the plugin editor useless. It was working very fine upto 4.7. Now you are making us buffoons with your new improvements. Please revert the file to old version.

    After editing the file for more than 3 hours, finally I am getting the following message. At least you add some thing to bypass the following (Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors).
    I know you will ask for hosting questions. I use VPS.net and Clouldflare and most simplest installation.

    Regards
    Sajith

    Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.

  • Hi Sajith,

    It’s possible that CloudFlare may be interferring. Try bypassing it, clearing the cache, then making the edits.

    Editing plugin files via a file manager or FTP is much better than editing via the WordPress Dashboard. Doing it this way will also allow you to take backups of the file you are editing so you can revert to earlier versions in the even of an issue.

    Hello WP Hosting Australia

    I have already bypassed the cloudflare and tried. I think you people also try it before rolling out something.

    If you think

    Editing plugin files via a file manager or FTP is much better than editing via the WordPress Dashboard

    then just remove the plugin editor from wordpress.

    What is the use of having a plugin editor that is no working?
