Author select boxes aren’t working properly with plugin enabled.

    We’ve installed this plugin on a site with >2500 users and it’s increased the performance in the backend significantly!

    However, we’re finding that the Author selection box on posts is causing us a lot of issues. On the original dropdown, it listed the Author name and email address (we have a lot of users with the same name so this was an essential change) and it also doesn’t show the currently selected author

    When we select a user we get a JavaScript error;

    We would ideally prefer to have the original dropdown box, however I can’t find a way to do this. At the moment, we can’t really assign authors to posts which means we can’t really use the plugin, however the performance gains are massive so we’d like to use the plugin if possible!

    Thanks for the problem report.

    There are four different author selection boxes with four different code paths … Quick Edit, Bulk Quick Edit, Classic Editor, Block Editor. Which one is broken?

    Hi Ollie

    Thanks for your reply, it’s the Classic Editor and the Quick edit that doesn’t work. We are using the Classic Editor plugin.

    Thanks

    Hi Ollie

    Is there any more info you need from me on this?

    We’ve found the speed improvement offered by the plugin to be amazing so would really like to implement it on our site. Let me know if you can think of any workarounds?

    Thanks

    Version 1.1.7 now shows user display names and login names. That is the way it works without the plugin.
