@kylepmulligan,
Sorry you’re having an issue here. I haven’t seen anything like this using LifterLMS and I just tried to recreate this on a new page and I don’t see any issues.
Here’s what I did:
1. Pages -> Add New
2. Added a title and some content
3. Clicked publish
Based on what you’re saying it sounds like the page would never reload? However, during this test the page was published as expected.
Am I understanding your issue properly?
If not could you please provide me with step by step actions I can take to recreate this myself.
Additionally, if you’d please ensure this isn’t an issue with another plugin or theme could you disable all other plugins and switch to the twentynineteen theme (temporarily) to see if the issue goes away.
Finally, if you still need help please shoot me over a copy of your system report: https://lifterlms.com/docs/how-to-use-the-lifterlms-system-report/
Thanks
