Media library not loading in Grid Mode on many sites

    I have now at least 3 websites with this problem. These 3 websites have a test sub-domain, basically a test environment that is a copy of the websites, these are located in a folder called /test at the same level of the main website.

    I update the tests first to check for errors, right now with the latest version of WordPress (4.9.4) my media library does not load on grid mode. I have seen this topic in a few forums but no solution seems to help me.

    – If I enable the Debug I see nothing in the log at the time that I open my library and it just sits there loading.

    – If I check the network tab in Chrome, I can see that the “admin-ajax.php” can find the images, I can open the tab and see all of my files.

    – On Chrome I can see this console warning: “jQuery is not compatible with Quirks Mode”

    – I have deactivated all plugins, did a WordPress rollback, updated the core manually, installed older WordPress versions manually. Nothing works.

    – If I change to list view I can see my images, however, I cannot add images to posts as only grid mode is used there.

    – I can also see this warning on the console (sometimes): “jQuery.fn.load() is deprecated”

    – I have somewhat isolated the problem on one of the sites by installing “Health Checker” and using a default WordPress theme, then the gallery loads), but this doesn’t make much sense as I’m having the same problem with completely different themes on different websites.

    I’m really at a loss with this, I do not dare to update anything on the main websites right now, if this would happen on the main websites I’d have very pissed clients.

    I do have pissed clients because of this.

    Currently on 4.9.4, the problem with the media library not loading on grid and not being able to attach featured images to posts happens on any theme and with no plugins activated.

    Strangely enough, it does not happen on another installation, on a different server, so the problem might also be dependent on server settings.

    Completely at a loss.

    Anyone? I have seen this problem on many forums and with many different solutions but so far none has worked for me. Replying to the poster above, in my case it happens on different websites with different hosts.

    Surprisingly, the problem just disappeared yesterday on my production site. No idea if it was a change in the server or what. So it could also come back for no reason, who knows?
