Blank sidebar in WP 5.5

    After upgrading to WP 5.5, I’m finding sometimes the sidebar shows blank.

    If you edit a post, open the sidebar, then immediately go and edit another post, the sidebar will be displayed by default, which is fine, except it will be blank. To fix, you have to toggle it on and off again to see the sidebar contents. Video is here. Any ideas?

    I uploaded a new version (1.3.2) that should fix the incompatibilities with WordPress 5.5.

    Thanks!

    I deployed this live and suddenly my live site started throwing this error (it worked on my dev instance):

    Any ideas?

    There was a case sensitive mismatch in the name of that file, that I guess could be considered a different file depending on the system (trait-sanitize.php -> trait-Sanitize.php).

    I fixed it and uploaded a new version (1.3.3) that should fix it. If you find any other issue please let me know.
