Problem with "Are you sure you want to do this"

  • I have a brand-new WordPress site, installed by cpanel 2 days ago.

    Intermittently yesterday, when updating or publishing posts or pages I got a screen saying “are you sure you want to do this” and I had to go back. Then it would work fine. Today, trying to update, I cannot get past this screen.

    I have disabled all plug-ins, though I have virtually none, this makes no difference. I have renamed the plug-ins folder to remove all plug-ins, no difference.

    I am using the Canvas theme from Woo, I have tried changing to the default theme and it makes no difference.

    Not sure where to go from here. All ideas welcome. Again it’s intermittent, I am completely unable to update one page but I have just updated another no problem.

  • Maybe it’s the revision problem for some reason. Try to disable it by editing the file

    wp-config.php

    and add

    define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', false );

    to see if that does something. Also see if you prolong the auto save interval longer like

    define('AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 86400); /* seconds for one full day */

    helps too.

    Thanks for that, it just seems to have gone away. I’ve used it today all day and no problems at all. Very strange to say the least

    Glad to know it’s back to normal. But that might come back later again. It might have to do with cache (WP or server side).
