    Hi!

    After updateing to the latest WordPress, I have the following issue:

    If I open an existing product, or a totally new one, I can not see or edit the product desciption. It seems like a blank nothing, althrough the desciption for the old one definitely excists.

    Also, can use the “quick edit” button when listing all the products.

    I have been looking the forum for similar issues, but found nothing.

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Best regards,

    Leila Sebestyenne Qeis

    HiIssues like this may be caused by either a conflict with your theme or with another plugin. You can read more about plugin and theme conflicts in the documentation here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-self-service-guide/

    The best way to determine if the issue is being caused by a theme and/or plugin is to do the following:

    1. Temporarily switch your theme to the Twenty Seventeen Theme
    2. Disable all plugins except for WooCommerce. You can do this manually or by using a plugin to help.
    3. Test to see if the issue has been resolved.

    To help troubleshoot:

    Meks Quick Plugin Disabler https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/meks-quick-plugin-disabler/ is a tool that will remember what plugins you had active when you switch it back on.

    If that resolves the issue, then one-by-one you can switch back your theme and re-enable your plugins, testing in between, until you find the one causing the conflict. there,

    Hi!

    Thanks a lot!

    So the solution as shocking as it is: I turned off Google Recaptcha plugin, and everything works great. Didn’t see that coming…

    @sqleila – Glad that you were able to find that. The plugin was likely creating a JavaScript error which prevented parts of the interface from functioning. I would update that plugin if possible and let the developer of the plugin know about it.
