mediaelement prevents pages from loading

    Some pages on my site stop loading because mejs throws errors. None of these pages (working and nonworking) have mejs in use and have no media elements.

    I think it might have something to do with mediaelement-and-player.min.js, mediaelement-migrate.min.js, and wp-mediaelement.min.js being included on the page later in 5.3 than in previous versions (5.2.4). It appears that I may have some scripts in my theme that depend on these to load first.

    I don’t see how I can manage this in my theme because those files do not have registered handles and therefore cannot be included as dependencies in wp_enqueue_script. Is there any way of including them in the page earlier and/or prior to theme scripts?

    edit: missed this on the wp_enqueue_script page: wp-mediaelement

    Enqueuing scripts with possible dependencies on wp-mediaelement did not help.

    …and all the plugins have been disabled; no joy.

    Same here, I’ve disabled a lot of my plugins (which is not ideal)

    The solution I arrived at was to remove any functions in my parent theme that rely on MEJS.
