Breaks when updating BB to 2.8.3

    Since updating to the latest version of Beaver Builder, Dashboard Welcome for Beaver Builder plugin no longer works.

    It works fine with BB 2.8.2.2 but stops working when you update to 2.8.3

    Did something change to prevent it from working? I noticed your plugin hasn’t been updated for 9 months.

    I wish this feature was a part of Powerpack, for which I am a long term customer.

    Please advise.

    Thanks

    David

    @one3rdnerd Jamie from BB here:

    Are you using Yoast SEO by chance? If so, we do know of an issue with a fix for Yoast that is in 2.8.3 causing shortcodes not to render.

    Hi Jamie,

    Yes, I use Yoast on all websites.

    Is this conflict between Yoast and BB or Yoast and DWBB?

    I can confirm, temporarily turning off Yoast fixes the issue.

    Is there another fix?

    It’s not a specific conflict with Yoast / BB / DWBB. A fix we put in for Yoast is having unintended consequences with shortcodes in general when Yoast is active. We just became aware of the issue today so there’s no official fix yet aside from downgrading to 2.8.2.2 or commenting out a line in BB.

    In v2.8.3,
    in classes/class-fl-builder-compatibility.php
    comment out line 103

    Hi Jamie,

    Ah, okay, I misunderstood your first message.

    Okay, is there a rough eta for when it might be fixed?

    I haven’t noticed any other shortcode issues but I’ll have a look.

    Not at this time – we found out about it at end of day today, next week is a very short week for us. I’m hoping for next week but it may not be until the following week given the 3 day week next week.

    Okay, thanks for the update. I’ll keep an eye out for an update and see if there are any problems with sites I have upgraded beyond the dashboard.

    @one3rdnerd This should be fixed now in 2.8.3.1 of Beaver Builder.

    @codente Thank you. I can confirm that’s all working now. Marking this as solved.
