Found 2 Elements With Non-Unique Id #_wpnonce

    I’ve noticed this in the Console on WP 5.6 sites, testing with no plugins active and the Twenty Twenty One theme whenever I try to edit a post:

    
[DOM] Found 2 elements with non-unique id #_wpnonce: (More info: https://goo.gl/9p2vKq) <input type=?"hidden" id=?"_wpnonce" name=?"_wpnonce" value=?"XXXXXX">? <input type=?"hidden" id=?"_wpnonce" name=?"_wpnonce" value=?"XXXXXX">?

    I can still edit posts, and there is nothing in the PHP error logs. I haven’t found it doing any harm yet, but it does seem like there shouldn’t be two nonces, and definitely not two with the same ID.

  • Hi, does it happen on all pages?

    Can you take a screenshot with all the entire error & stack trace expanded, or copy/paste it here?

    Hi @iandunn

    Yes, it happens on all pages and posts, including the “Hello World” sample post, but I only see it in Chromium 87.0.4280.88, not in Firefox 83.0.

    The entire output in the Console in Chromium is as follows, there is nothing in the Call Stack section if I click on “Sources”:

    
JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 3.3.2
load-scripts.php?c=1&load[chunk_0]=jquery-core,jquery-migrate,utils,moxiejs,plupload&ver=5.6:5

[DOM] Found 2 elements with non-unique id #_wpnonce: 
post.php?post=1&action=edit:1 
(More info: https://goo.gl/9p2vKq) 
<input type=?"hidden" id=?"_wpnonce" name=?"_wpnonce" value=?"XXXXXX">? 
<input type=?"hidden" id=?"_wpnonce" name=?"_wpnonce" value=?"XXXXXX">?

    Maybe it’s just a Chromium issue?

    I think this is just a Chromium issue. I searched the source code in Firefox, and the string id="_wpnonce" doesn’t appear, but in Chromium, it does indeed appear twice as you can see from the code snippet here:

    
<div id="metaboxes" class="hidden">
  <form class="metabox-base-form">
  <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="d34dea564f" /><input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/wp-admin/post.php?post=1&action=edit" />  
  <input type="hidden" id="user-id" name="user_ID" value="1" />
  <input type="hidden" id="hiddenaction" name="action" value="editpost" />
  <input type="hidden" id="originalaction" name="originalaction" value="editpost" />
  <input type="hidden" id="post_type" name="post_type" value="post" />
  <input type="hidden" id="original_post_status" name="original_post_status" value="publish" />
  <input type="hidden" id="referredby" name="referredby" value="https://thedomain.com/wp-admin/edit.php" />
  <input type="hidden" name="_wp_original_http_referer" value="https://thedomain.com/wp-admin/edit.php" />
  <input type='hidden' id='post_ID' name='post_ID' value='1' />
  <input type="hidden" id="meta-box-order-nonce" name="meta-box-order-nonce" value="6a2eda062d" />
  <input type="hidden" id="closedpostboxesnonce" name="closedpostboxesnonce" value="4955bbbd0f" /><input type="hidden" id="samplepermalinknonce" name="samplepermalinknonce" value="50802a46fb" />  </form>
  <form id="toggle-custom-fields-form" method="post" action="https://thedomain.com/wp-admin/post.php">
  <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="ebae5e4f91" />
  <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/wp-admin/post.php?post=1&action=edit" />    
  <input type="hidden" name="action" value="toggle-custom-fields" />
  </form>

    Ah, thanks, I’m seeing that now too, on wp-admin/post-new.php, in Chrome. The multiple fields are in the source in Firefox too, but it doesn’t warn about them.

    I searched for existing reports and it looks like it’s already being worked on:
