WordPress 5.6: unable to edit description posts

    Hi,

    I have created custom type of posts (taxonomies) and since the update I can’t edit the short and bottom descriptions of my posts. Sometimes it’s working randomly, some descriptions are editable but generally it’s not just working anymore.

    When I inspect with the console I got this error

    JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 3.3.2
    theme.min.js?wp-mce-49110-20201110:1

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘setAttribute’ of undefined
    at i.aria (theme.min.js?wp-mce-49110-20201110:1)

    at i.exec (theme.min.js?wp-mce-49110-20201110:1)

    Sometimes the error doesn’t appear and I can see and edit my descriptions. It’s really random I still don’t know what triggers the error. I used this method

    -Once you’re in the public_html directory, locate your wp-config.php file. Right-click to Edit the file.

    -Add the following line right under the <?php opening tag: define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false);

    I also downloaded Enable jQuery Migrate Helper plugin and it seemed to have no problem when I downgrade the jquery. I don’t want to do that all the time for security reasons.

    I don’t have an extra editor plugin and I tried to deactivate all plugins already.

    If somebody has an idea how to fix this ??

    Thank you

  • Possibly your theme has a compatibility issue with the current jQuery theme if you have already ruled out plugins. You can temporarily switch to a default theme to see and if turned out this is the theme issue, ask your theme developer about this fix.

    Thank you for your answer Olga.

    I contacted him and he said there were no issues between the theme and jquery…

    Sometimes the descriptions are not there but if I press a random link/b/i/img button in the text, then I go to previous page and then reopen the same post, the descriptions reappear.

    There is something blocking the rendering of the descriptions and I still don’t find it

    EDIT: currently investigating with YoastSEO, about a conflict with wp editor
