Custom Post — Doesn’t support “Title” Broken in 5.7

  • I have two custom post types, one is a fairly normal custom post type, the other has a very specific use case. The latter is created with a limited “supports” value, specifically: (‘editor’, ‘thumbnail’, ‘excerpt’). Notably it does NOT contain ‘title’. The title is set by a post action function.

    This has worked perfectly — up until the 5.7 update. Now it is broken. When I try to create a new post of that type, the editor (Gutenberg) comes up empty, and the title field is missing, as expected, but any click on the editor gives “the editor has encountered an unexpected error” and crashes out.

    No idea how to debug this. Help?

    Please review 5.7 Master List and attempt troubleshooting outlined therein.

    OK, I’ve done all that (disabled plugins, etc.), added script-debug, and I still have the problem. Tested in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Here is the error

    Are ALL your plugins and the theme up to date?

    Yep, and the error happened when all of them were disabled as well.

    Well, I think I’ll do that. I added “title” to the Supports clause of the CPT and it works. This is definitively a bug.
