Large amount of scripts

Furthermore, because it’s trying to access WP JSON for some reason, every page load has a JS error:

Object captured as promise rejection with keys: code, data, message

Because for security we don’t allow random REST requests.

{code: rest_not_logged_in, data: {status: 401}, message: You are not currently logged in.}

Same here. We were seeing an extra 40 JavaScript files loading on the front end when the AfterPay plugin was active. One of those files /wp-includes/js/dist/components.min.js is a humungous Gutenberg Editor file that really harms page rendering. From research I found that these files are meant for the back-end editing, not for the front end. Others have commented about accidentally loading them in their projects as well.

Hi @rochow and @seanconklin,

Thank you for your reports.

The team is aware of this challenge and looking into it. In the meantime, if this is impacting the store in a meaningful way, the team suggest taking a full site backup and rolling back to v3.6.1. If assistance to do so would be welcomed, please submit a support request including a link to this post using the following web form: https://afterpay.formstack.com/forms/global_merchant_technical_support

A member of the team will then reach out to you within 1 business day.

Thank you.
