I was stoked to see the checkbox back in 6.4. Why remove it again in 6.5?

There shouldn’t even be the need to debate this. Remove friction from the UI. Don’t add it.

And definitely don’t add friction, remove it, add it, remove it, add it again. It’s like we’re constantly going round in circles with this. Just make a decision and stick to it – preferably with the checkbox.

This is awesome news, thanks Benjamin. I appreciate the quick reply!

This worked perfectly fine before and the UX was good. I don’t get the need to change it and make anything more difficult, regardless of whatever arguments are against using “open in a new tab”.

This change is so clunky! I run a bunch of sites and my editorial team now has to waste more of their time doing what was super simple before. Come on. Time is money.

Sure, we could use a plugin but I don’t want to force all links to open in a new tab.

I’m baffled by this. Why even make this change?

Apologies – it looks like this issue was due to a conflict with WP Rocket.

Specifically their delay/defer Javascript functionality.

I’ve implemented a temporary fix by disabling this on a per page level so it doesn’t affect the calculators we’ve published.

Can you let me know the paths/url’s of the Javascript used by your plugin?

I’ll add them as exclusion rules in WP Rocket.

Thanks,
Adam

I was looking at the separate SEO data transporter plugin instead, oops.

Migration complete and successful. Thanks Michael!

Ah, WPX Hosting is my host.

To be completely honest, I only wanted to spend like 5 minutes quickly playing around to see what this could do and that was it.

Not to worry – I’ll just delete it and revisit it at a later date maybe. Blocks look really nice though – great job.

Apologies – I should have paid more attention while installing the plugin lol.

Although, “educational content” and “offers” weren’t mentioned when going through the installation process. That’s mainly what I didn’t want to opt-in for.

There are two issues I’m facing currently:

1) When clicking on the button to display the layouts available, they don’t load – the wheel just spins.
2) I’m unable to access this settings page – I can’t actually see it anywhere in my dashboard. And when navigating to the URL you provided, I get the “you don’t have access to view this page” (or something similar)

Cheers,
Adam

I’d imagine if we disable the TA plugin, that all images would disappear since the TA image element wouldn’t be there anymore (haven’t tested this though).

I’ve given up on converting to the Gutenberg editor for the time being until the issue is fixed.

Hi Ray

It seems like ThirstyAffiliates corrupted my htaccess upon deactivation.

Can this be investigated from your side please? It’s a serious issue to break a site upon deactivation.

While it’s “resolved” for me, it’s still a possible issue for others.

– Adam

Update: looks like upon deactivation, my htaccess file was corrupted. A fresh htaccess solved the problem.

It would be great if the original issue involving convert to blocks could be fixed – kind of surprised that my last post was marked as resolved when the fix hasn’t been rolled out.

– Adam

Hi Ray,

Why has this thread been marked as resolved before a fix has been rolled out?

The issue still occurs so it’s not resolved.

– Adam

Thanks Ray!

Hi Shawn,

Already got a friend helping me out with this, thanks though! Really appreciate the kind offer to help.

I think I’ve got the fix, as to whether it’s the cause of the incorrect URL’s in search console, I’m not sure.

But this code:

// Disable DNS pre-fetch
remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘wp_resource_hints’, 2 );

Added to theme functions disables them completely. When I remove the code, it brings back DNS pre-fetch but without the site URL that had the incorrect protocol .

Looks like a winner.

I’ve got the same issue on 2 sites. I’ve resorted to disabling file backups temporarily.

No file permissions have been changed at all.

Also, on some other sites I had issues switching from instant lockout notifications to a daily digest. When saving, I got a failure notice and part of it said ‘This could be due to a permissions issue’.

Best,
Adam
