Classic Blocks Don’t Load On Frontend; Slow updating/publishing

    Hi,

    I’ve been having a problem with the classic block on my website recently.

    I have a few posts which are published daily in a classic block. However, recently, there’s been an issue where these posts are not appearing on the frontend of the website. When I view it from the editor as a preview, it appears fine. I’ve had to disable the infinite load for my site as other posts start behaving the same way. Deactivating infinite load didn’t help with the classic blocks issue. The posts appear fine after I convert them into new gutenberg blocks. When I do an inspect element, there the body portion of the code is missing and is listed as “…” but none of the content related codes are within it.

    I’m also facing long publish and update times when publishing posts.

    Anyone else facing the same issue? Is there any way to fix the issue?

    I’m running the latest version of WordPress with the GoodLife Theme.

    This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins, and switch to the default Twenty Twenty theme. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of the problem.

    If you can install plugins, install Health Check. On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and change the theme for you, while you’re still logged in, without affecting normal visitors to your site.

    So, I used Health Check and did the troubleshooting. I managed to get a few things resolved with WP_Debug and found a plugin that was giving some issues with the site. However, the Classic Block issue doesn’t seem to be resolving.

    The speed issue was due to WP-Optimize.

    Try downloading WordPress again, access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting provider’s documentation for specifics on these), and delete then replace your copies of everything on the server except the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies from the download. This will effectively replace all of your core files without damaging your content and settings.

    Some uploaders tend to be unreliable when overwriting files, so don’t forget to delete the original files before replacing them.

    Sorry for the late reply. The email informing of the update got sent into spam for some reason.

    I’ll give what you suggested a try.

    But before that, I realised today that there was a peculiar occurrence today when I was editing one of the articles. The autosave/revision comparison screen showed a before and after and the content was empty in the version with the classic block while the one which had been converted had the content visible.

    Thanks @macmanx . It looks like the replacing of the files did the trick. Thanks!
