Blank editor screen

  • Issue – After importing 1400 posts, a ton of them appeared only on the frontend, while the backend editor was blank. If I deactivated The Classic Editor plugin, the backend displayed the content in the classic editor. When I reactivate the classic editor plugin, the edit screen is blank again. Yet, the frontend still displays.

    SOLUTION – When editing a post that appears blank on the backend, follow these 3 steps:

    1- Click on the editor’s TEXT tab.
    2- Click on the permalink (URL below the title).
    3- Hit your browser’s BACK button.

    You will see the code now in the editor.

    MESSAGE TO PLUGIN AUTHOR –
    While this solution works temporarily, it would be wonderful if we didn’t have to go through these steps to see an edit screen with content loaded. Please provide a solution.

    Details:
    WordPress 5.3 running OceanWP Child theme.
    ALL plugins deactivated except for The Classic Editor.
