ERROR: White screen of death when saving a draft of a post
-
I found a reproducible issue on one of my sites:
– Ensure that Amazon Polly plugin (2.0.5) is enabled
– Create a new post, enter a title and add some text in the visual editor (I used, ‘test’ and ‘blahblah’)
– Click the “Save Draft” button
– Browser redirects to …/wp-admin/post.php and displays blank screen (although, the draft is actually saved)I experimented with different themes, clearing cache (both locally and on the server) and disabling and re-enabling all plugins. I found that the only way to ‘fix’ this issue was to disable the Polly plugin. When the Polly plugin is disabled, saving a draft works as expected in the WordPress visual editor.
I was able to reproduce the issue in both Chrome and Firefox.
* I think the issue may be related to this particular site’s environment config. This site is on GoDaddy managed WordPress hosting. I could not reproduce the issue on another site I manage that uses Polly but is on WPEngine.
Hope this helps. Thx!
