Updating Failed when try to update a page
-
I’m having problems with the SVG Support plugin and pages containing the ACF Plugin.
Whenever I try to make a change to the page, clicking on update returns the error “Updating Failed”
{“code”:”rest_meta_database_error”,”message”:”Could not update the meta value of inline_featured_image in database.”,”data”:{“key”:”inline_featured_image”,”status”:500}
Has anyone experienced this problem and been able to resolve it?

I think I found the bug. It looks like this plugin calls update_post_meta, even if there had been no change. WordPress seems to have a bug where it returns false if there was an error OR if the value was the same and therefore not updated, and the AJAX function WP_REST_Meta_Fields::update_meta_value that calls the update_metadata function that treats any false as an error, and then throws an actual error as a result. This “Safe SVG” plugin should update to check if there is a difference in meta value before calling the update_post_meta, so to not trigger the WordPress bug.
/** * Save featured image meta data when saved */ function bodhi_svgs_save_featured_image_meta( $post_id, $post, $update ) { // if gutenberg is active, disable the classic editor checkbox if( isset($_REQUEST['hidden_post_status']) ){ $value = 0; if ( isset( $_REQUEST['inline_featured_image'] ) ) { $value = 1; } // Check if post type supports 'thumbnail' (Featured Image) if ( post_type_supports( get_post_type( $post_id ), 'thumbnail' ) ) { // set meta value to either 1 or 0 update_post_meta( $post_id, 'inline_featured_image', $value ); // ^^^ I believe this is the culprit } } } add_action( 'save_post', 'bodhi_svgs_save_featured_image_meta', 10, 3 );
