Hello Apolloman

There are Online Tools to gather information about a specific Website, for example, “Is it WP” (https://www.isitwp.com). Of course, only some basic Information, based on the HTML Source, will be showed!

Cheers, the Cat

I can confirm this, see link below for another example.
The difference is smaller on my example, maybe because of the used Font.
I didn’t realize this before reading this post.

Did you try this by just adding some CSS Code to the Customizer? Design >> Customizer >> Additional CSS.

body {
font-family: “Your-font-face”;

Hello again

I tried to find a way to replicate this problem. To do this, I installed WordPress ( 5.1–de_CH) from Scratch (newly extracted Files from Install Image, new MySQL DB). Everything worked fine on the new Setup, even after installing the Jetpack Plugin (7.0.1) – everything was ok.

Used Browser:
Google Chrome 72 (current Stable Channel)
Firefox 65.0.1
Server: PHP-FPM 7.2.15, Apache/2.4.37, Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS

After configuring Jetpack (logging in using a WordPress.com account), the “Saved” message still popped up. However, after ~1 hour, the problem described above appeared: After opening an Page in the Gutenberg Editor, changes are saved, but there is no message “Saved” in the Editor. Clickiong away freezes the Dashboard for ~5 Seconds.

I repeated the steps described in this Post with the same result. In my humble oppinion, there is a Bug in Gutenberg, but it’s not simple to reproduce it!

Kind regards, Benjamin

Hello James

Many thanks for your reply.
I tried Twenty Nineteen, Twenty Seventeen and the legacy Kubrick Theme, which was the default Theme when I installed WordPress. Unfortunately, that didn’t solve the problem. It seems not to be theme-related.

I also checked the Webserver Log and found that WordPress in fact is sending an POST request to save:

“POST /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/2591/autosaves?_locale=user HTTP/1.1” 200 9341 “https://www.*****.ch/wp-admin/post.php?post=2591&action=edit”

And when the POST request invokes, I see this error message in the Javascript Console:

WebSocket connection to ‘wss://public-api.wordpress.com/pinghub/wpcom/me/newest-note-data’ failed: Invalid frame header

Kind regards, Benjamin

Hi James and Marius

Many thanks for your reply. I’m sorry You could not replicate the problem!
The steps to reproduce here are very simple:

1. Disable all plugins – Autosave in Gutenberg works
2. Enable Jetpack and connect – Aotosave won’t work, (Text gets saved after ~30 Seconds but there is no message displayed and when I click away, WP freezes for ~5-10 seconds, no JS errors in the Console)
2. Disable Jetpack – Autosave works again

* I use PHP 7.2.10 (ubuntu0.18.04.1)
* This is a very old WP Instance, it dates back to February 2005
* No Autosave problems in the classic Editor
* No commercial Themy, the Site uses a Twenty Twelve Theme
Didn’t have this Problem in WordPress 5.0.3

For safety, I’m going back to the Classic Editor.

Many thanks for helping me, I appreciate it very much.
Kind regards, Benjamin

Hallo Marius

Thanks for your reply. Please try enabling the Jetpack Plugin. I have problems with both of them.

Kind regards, Benjamin

Hello Marius

Many thanks for your reply. I tested all Plugins and you’re right. The problem occurs when one Plugin is active – maybe I’ve found a Bug: When the Classic Editor is active, Autosave in Gutenberg won’t work. Or, to be more accurate, the Text gets saved, but the Message “Saved” is not displayed.

I deacticated the Classic Editor Plugin, now everything works. However, from time to time, I need the CE to edit old Posts. It would be great if this can be fixed.

Kind regards, Benjamin

I just opened the Developer Tools in Google Chrome and found this:

It seems that Gutenberg is doing the autosave, I see this calls with a “200” reply from the Webserver:

https://www.mysite.com/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/2579/autosaves?_locale=user

However, I see no “Saved” Status in the Editor. There are no Error messages in the Javascript Console. To check whether Autosave is done, I have to close the Window, it displays a Warning when the Text is not saved.

Hello Birgit

Thanks very much for your reply.
And yes, that solved my problem 100% The borders are back!
Thank you very much for your help.

Kind regards, Benjamin

Hello cmilliken

I’m a 54 year old geek ?? If you like writing your Posts in plain HTML like me, do this: Create a new Custom HTML Block and paste your Content into that Block. Now you have nice Syntax highlighting and a realtime HTML Validity check.

And don’t worry, Gutenberg will not “kill” the Classic Editor. Even when GB will become the Default Editor, it will still be possible to use the Classic Editor as a Plugin.

Hello Marius and lizkarkoski

Many thanks for your reply. The question simply is: What is the easiest way to convert a “Classic Block” into a Gutenberg “Custom HTML” Block?

At the Moment, I do this when updating a Post:

1. Open the Post (Classic Editor fires up), switch to HTML View and copy all Text to the Clipboard
2. Create a new “Custom HTML” Block
3. Paste the text
3. Delete the empty Classic Block

The “Custom HTML” Block has advantages over the HTML View in the Classic Editor: It does Syntax Highlighting and warns on malformed HTML. That’s very good!

Best wishes and greetings
Benjamin
