WordPress Admin side broken by your plugin
-
Hi,
you sometimes release a bugged update that can really create big issues.If your plugin is active, version 5.1.3 then plugins menu are no more working.
What I mean?I cannot anymore surfing in the admin menu of compilanz plugin (see this recent topic) but not only this plugin menu. Another plugin admin menu that is broken by your plugin active is LightStart – Maintenance Mode
I should try to find an alternative dark mode plugin if your update still broken WordPress. Will be sad because I think your dark mode plugin is one of the best.. but this updates that broke website admin and front end are very.. harmful.
For discovered the issue was caused by your plugin I need put the website in maintenance and deactivate all plugins then reactivate one by one.
Currently your dark mode plugin:
- has issue with the toogle to switch from dark to light
- cause issue on admin wordpress menu
- cause issue with the advanced editor
As soon as I can I will add a video to demonstrate also this big issue where I cannot manage anymore plugins settings with your dark mode recent update.

Please feel free to share any findings if they help us identify the problems faster.
The version 5.1.3 introduce again the Block Editor Dark Mode that caused issues in the past and was removed in 5.1.2 also if the settings is present in both plugin version.
If I have the broken version 5.1.3 and I activate the dark mode from the WordPress dashboard then going in article or page creation or edits I will see on the top the Block Editor Dark Mode and also the issue with the advanced editor will be present (issue showed in my previous video).
In the following screenshot the blue arrow show the presence of the Block Editor Dark Mode while creating a new article. The dark mode was activated in the WordPress Dashboard then I opened the article creation page where, if I click on the advanced edit, classic editor there is no control while your plugin dark mode is active and the Block Editor Dark Mode broke the WordPress backend interface.
Now note, lets click where the blue arrow are showing and let’s select the dark mode blue:
If you leave the blue dark mode active then revert your extension from the bugged and wrong 5.1.3 to the less wrong 5.1.2 when you will return to edit an article / page or to create one, the dark mode may be still be active and you cannot turn off. For turn off you need deactivate the Block Editor Dark Mode from your plugin settings then for resolve and keep have that setting active you need go again on 5.1.3, turn off the blue dark mode in the article then revert back to 5.1.2. A lot of issues and problem all burn from the Block Editor Dark Mode. This seems to be the cause.
Also if the dark mode has been activated in the WordPress Dashboard there is no way to turn off when you edit an article or page or you are creating one. This is bad. You need exit from the article or page and deactivate the dark mode in the WordPress dashboard then return to the article. You should find a way to let user activate and deactivate the dark mode while the page or the article is in the creation or in the edit. White colors on night can damage eyes but you cannot fully create a page or an article all in the dark mode because if you need set some particular text in a different color you may need to deactivate, just for some second, the dark mode.. but with your extension this is not currently possible while editing or created a page or an article.
