Posts/Pages not saving

  • Hello,

    I’ve been having this strange issue for about three weeks now.

    #1 I first noticed as I was writing one of my posts that suddenly I could not save as draft. When I clicked save draft I would be taken directly to the page with the list of post titles. And when I went back to check my posts edits, nothing was saved.

    #2 I then went to add a page to one of my menus and nothing I did could be saved either. I could not add anything to my menu.

    #3 So I started to see if I could change anything on my site, like upload a new theme, and I could not even to that! I couldn’t change anything!

    My solution, well I checked this WordPress support and I can see so far are suggestions to deactivate all plugins. This is what I did… and well NOTHING CHANGED. Still couldn’t save anything and my website looks just totally naked now. ??

    I then contacted my hosting service and spent a good 3 hours with them as they searched and re-uploaded the WordPress core…. but with no avail. Same !#$% problem.

    So I coming to you guys directly. What could be wrong with my site? As far as I know, I have been very thorough with my site, keeping with the updates and using a child’s theme, updating and activated and then deactivating all plugins….

    So it not a plugin issue, nor is it a theme issue, because I changed that and still have the problem.

    I have had this website since 2010 and never had a problem like this before.

    It would be absolutely devastating if I have to delete my entire website and start over. I have hundreds of posts…. Please let me know of any possible solutions…. What could be the problem?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks for the response. I’ve been reading the link that you gave me and unfortunately I’m even more confused. Am I supposed to change something with my wp-config.php file? I don’t have a debug.log but I do have an error log and I see this – over and over:

    [29-Dec-2016 15:35:30 America/Denver] PHP Warning: Unknown: POST Content-Length of 354 bytes exceeds the limit of 300 bytes in Unknown on line 0

    Could this be what’s wrong? – I’ve exceeded some kind of limit?

    ok, I have followed the directions on this webpage:

    https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/?utm_expid=3606929-94.Ie3dH-CaRwe6MU3VrZsdvw.0&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F

    … and after clearing my catch… I still have the problem. ??

    I keep looking for a debug.log but with no luck.

    try adding the following code to your wp-config.php directly above
    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ :
    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true);

    already done.

    this is a portion of the wp-config file:

    /**#@-*/

    /**
    * WordPress Database Table prefix.
    *
    * You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique
    * prefix. Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
    */
    define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true);
    define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, true);
    define(‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true);
    define(‘SAVEQUERIES’, true);
    $table_prefix = ‘wp_nnmm_’;

    /**
    * For developers: WordPress debugging mode.
    *
    * Change this to true to enable the display of notices during development.
    * It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use WP_DEBUG
    * in their development environments.
    */
    define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘3000M’);

    // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );

    // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );

    // Disable display of errors and warnings
    define( ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false );
    @ini_set( ‘display_errors’, 0 );

    // Use dev versions of core JS and CSS files (only needed if you are modifying these core files)
    define( ‘SCRIPT_DEBUG’, true );

    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    Did you ever get this figured out? I’ve been having the exact same issue and it’s driving me crazy!!

    any luck figuring this out?
