Cannot update category settings

  • My site has been up and running for some time now, but yesterday I encountered a bug that prevents me from updating the details of any of my categories (both post and product categories either, given that I’m running WooCommerce).

    When I select ‘categories’ from the post or product menu it brings the list of all categories up. I can use the Quick Edit feature there to change their titles. However when I go into an individual category’s settings page and make changes (to any of the fields, even the title), the ‘Update’ button at the bottom doesn’t do anything. It gets a highlight around the edge but that’s it. No confirmation, no error anywhere on the page, and reloading shows that none of the changes were saved.

    This occurs both for existing categories and brand new ones.

    I’m aware of issues arising when there are tags and categories with the same name however there are no conflicts on my site.

    Just checked and the same behaviour is happening for the ‘Tags’ settings pages as well, not just categories.

    These were working perfectly originally and it is only recently that they have encountered issues.
