Block editor crashes

  • This is driving me crazy is because it happens in the live site – yet if I pull that to a staging site as a sub directory on the same host it works fine.

    That is OK – except – when I push ( files & database back to live ) the problem persists. Been through cache clearing etc etc in fact I do that when I push to live automatically.

    On live, using the troubleshooting plugin I have narrowed it down to two plugins – the one that uses the Block editor and another. At this stage my main concern is why can’t I replicate the issue on staging – rather than the particular plugin conflicts. ( neither are mine )

    The block editor gives me error info but it means nothing to me

    Any clues as what to look for gratefully received

    Ah now I know what Script debug is for

    function sortBySelected(termsTree, terms) {
  const treeHasSelection = termTree => {
    if (terms.indexOf(termTree.id) !== -1) {
      return true;
    }

    Editor.js doesn’t check for the existence of terms before applying a method, should be something like the following

    function sortBySelected(termsTree, terms) {
  const treeHasSelection = termTree => {
   if ( terms ) {
    if (terms.indexOf(termTree.id) !== -1) {
      return true;
    }
}

    I guess I will have to put that in gutenberg issues log

    It seems that it doesn’t happen in the development Gutenberg plugin so I guess it has been fixed.

    But really I don’t understand why it happens in one environment but not it’s clone.

    Check the response coming from this call getEditedPostAttribute( _taxonomy.rest_base )

    Can you log for which taxonomy it’s getting undefined and what is rest_base that’s being passed as attributeName for that taxonomy?

    I guess i could, but there are two things
    1. when I install Gutenberg plugin the issue is gone
    2. when i run it on staging the issue is gone – this second fact worried more than the issue itself

    Try this, create back of editor.js and copy the editor.js then see, what happens.
