I am constantly seeing this error too but inconsistently. Plain text works ok, images/gallery sometimes works but often not and video not at all.

I’ve tried switching off plugins but its hard to tell if it has any impact when the error is appearing intermittently. Could it be theme related?

I’m really trying to make a proper go of using this thing but it really is a struggle. There is no way this was ready for general release.

It took me 2 days and some research to discover how to edit the permalink, not exactly intuitive but at least it seems this is now being worked on.

Additionally, when you first click on the title block, it presents the option to ‘change permalinks’. Clicking on this invites you to change your site permalink structure, not what you’re looking to achieve and not something you want as part of the editor.

Only after saving the draft are you given the option to ‘edit’. Note: you have to actually click the edit button before you can edit, clicking on the link takes you to a preview instead.

Its a good example of what is bad about Gutenberg. How much simpler and user-friendly it is to just click on the link and edit it.

This is exactly what I have been trying to say too but didn’t express it nearly so well as @boatmik. The written content should always come first, styling follows. Gutenberg blocks put the layout ahead of the content which is just a distraction from the writing.

This would seem to be the same issue I have also. While on the standard site my pages go up to /page/66 my amp pages only run to amp/page/61. This means that amp pages from 62-66 return a 404 and cause a major content mismatch issue in Google Search Console.

I confirm the new version resolves this issue for me, thank you.

Thank you for getting back to me.

I have attempted again to make the update.

When I visit the subscriber admin page, all emails are present as expected.

When I visit send email page, only emails up to letter f are present. When I click the ALL button (or other letters buttons) the page refreshes but does not change.

I have deactivated all other plugins, cleared the cache with no effect.

Reverting to version 2.8 and again functionality returns to normal.

I am using Point theme horseracingsouthamerica.com

I had the same issue. Turns out this is where Yoast SEO would insert breadcrumbs if you had the option enabled.

To remove the box you can do so with CSS by going to Appearance >> Theme Options >> Custom CSS and adding the following:

.breadcrumbs { display: none; }

Following your advice, text editor functionality has returned to normal, the buttons have been restored and are now displaying correctly onsite.

Thank you for your time and assistance, much appreciated.

Thanks for getting back to me so promptly.

The button is technically clickable but does not function, as is also the case with the standard media button.

I should have checked this before but the buttons are no longer displaying onsite at all, only the code is seen.

Neither do the buttons render in the backend, in fact this page now appears blank. The plugin settings and add new pages continue to show normal text.

I confess my technical knowledge is not such that I can tell for sure if there are any javascript errors present but everything else on the site does appear to be displaying and functioning as expected.

I don’t think I have the option to edit the thread, is it a problem?

I have followed the instructions provided and have now updated successfully, thank you.

I do still see the permalinks error message within the W3TC dashboard but everything functions normally. Is it safe to ignore/hide this message?

Thank you for your quick response.

I have followed the instructions, as requested and pasted the results below:
