Hi guys,
i am working on a test site. I ssved a page and after save the widgets sre empty.
I am using generate press theme. wordpress and all plugins are current. I use cloudflare.
I will start deleting plugins and see how that goes. Any other tips or known issues?
ok, i disabled wordfence and tiny mce. Works now. I will do some more testing, but I note topics with both plugins mentioned of late. Is there a known issue? Thanks guys.
Hi Hammeroz,
TinyMCE is the default WordPress – we’re 100% compatabile with it. This is likely a WordFence issue. The issue is that it’s initially very strict so things like the Learning Mode do definitely help in resolving issues like this one. However, if you want to “skip” the learning process and just use your widgets you can do so pretty easily. Go to the affected widget and open it up, don’t get “blocked” yet. Instead open up another tab on WP AdminWordFenceLive Traffic and filter it by blocked traffic. Then make an adjustment to your button widget and you’ll get blocked. Go back to the Wordfence tab and press the whitelist param from FireWall button. This is 100% safe as the contents of the field are not at all close to what would be required for an XSS attack. (it’s really quite odd it would even suggest such a thing…).
If this doesn’t help, try a plugin conflict test. Can you try disabling all non-SiteOrigin plugins and see if this fixes the issue? You’ll need to clear all your caches after disabling your plugins.
If it does fix the issue, then try re-enabling your plugins one by one until the issue comes back. This procedure will help diagnose which plugin is causing the issue.
Once we know that, we’ll be able to look at what might be causing the conflict and either solve the problem or help you find an alternative plugin.
