Ghost Kit and Co-Blocks Break Editor in WordPress 5.5

    Hello,

    I just updated a site I am developing to WordPress 5.5. and now, when editing my pages or posts, I am presented with the following error on all my blocks: “This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed.”

    On my localhost testing site I switched my theme to Twenty Twenty, disabled all my plugins and re-enabled them one by one.

    My site uses a couple of different block building plugins but I was able to narrow down the issue to two: CoBlocks (Version 2.2.0) and Ghost Kit (Version 2.13.2).

    If I just have only Ghost Kit or only CoBlocks enabled the blocks show up as expected. But, if I enable CoBlocks and Ghost Kit together I get the error “This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed.”

    It’s hard to say exactly which one is the ultimate culprit because on their own they work as expected, but together they completely break the editor.

    Happy to provide any further information to help work towards a fix.

    Thank you!
    -Richard

    To Whom It May Concern,

    I am updating the thread here in reference to the other active thread over at the CoBlocks support forum: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/co-blocks-and-ghost-kit-break-editor-in-wordpress-5-5/#post-13246151

    To test this further, I created a new page on my localhost site. Again, this is with the twentytwenty theme activated.

    The only plugin activated for this screenshot is CoBlocks (Version 2.2.0): https://tinyurl.com/y2n7jqs7

    Then, if I activate Ghost Kit, the blocks are replaced with the error: https://tinyurl.com/y2pyx7b2

    If I deactivate CoBlocks, the basic WordPress blocks (ex. header) comes back. But, of course, the CoBlocks are no longer available.

    Happy to help further clarify, answer questions or test.

    Hey Richard.

    Thank you for reporting to me.

    Our plugin not yet tested with WordPress 5.5, so most probably this bug will be resolved once we’ll check all our features with the new Gutenberg API. We are working on updates for all our plugins, next in the queue is Ghost Kit.

    Regards, nK.

    Hey @willhouse

    Try to update Ghost Kit to v2.14.0, this conflict should be fixed now.

    Hi nK,

    I can confirm that the update to Ghost Kit v2.14.0 has resolved the conflict.

    Many Thanks!
