wplink scripts related errors

    After updating to WP 5.4 on April 1, we noticed some client sites were throwing an error in the page/post block editor. The error is that when using Gutenberg, trying to open a new paragraph block results in an error message: “This block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed.” Other blocks seem to be okay.

    After much testing, we determined that this was only happening on our sites running AIOSEO and Toolset Types. We submitted a support ticket with Types, and their dev team was able to tell us:

    This issue is caused by the All In One SEO Pack Plugin which deregisters the wplink scripts. These are native WordPress Core scripts that are often used by other software to add or manipulate the editor experience.

    This means, any plugin relying on the script will fail to function if All In One SEO Pack is active.

    Is this something that you have made a development choice about, or an error? Will it be something that you are fixing?

    Hey @bethannon1,

    Thank you for reporting this.

    I’ve reached out to Toolset Types so we can get a version of their plugin and investigate this issue on our end. In either case, this is definitely something we want to fix.

    In the latest update we added some extra features to the link format in Gutenberg. In order to achieve this, we had to deregister the core script and reregister it along with our modifications. There currently isn’t an API for this.

    I’m going to see if we can fix the conflict by reregistering the format with the same name, or else we’ll need to prevent our code from running if we detect that plugin.

    This will be a problem for any plugin that depends on those core scripts, not just Toolset. Wouldn’t it be better not to deregister core scripts?

    The same issue for me, see the link to related support ticket with Toolset team

    @bethannon1 I think we can fix any conflicts by simply re-registering the format under the same name (core/link), but we first need to get our hands on a copy of their plugin so we can confirm whether or not that actually fixes it.

    @bethannon1 I can give you access to a test site if you wish to test…

    Great, thank you @arnaudbroes, we’ll update all the tickets in our Forum so the users know.

    Thanks again!

    @arnaudbroes I’m having the exact same issue and would love to try out the beta, but don’t have a license for support (using the free version). Would you mind emailing me a copy to test out?

    @coreyff I responded to your email but got a delivery failure back from your email server.

    @wpsmort Hmm I’m receiving other emails fine. Maybe I typed it wrong? It should be corey at facefirstcreative.com or you could try coreypaige at gmail.com

    I appreciate it!

    @coreyff I’ve sent it to both accounts. It’s a ZIP file so I wonder if that’s the problem, I know that Google blocks ZIP file attachments.

    @wpsmort Perfect, thanks. This one came through. I’ll let you know how it works for me as soon as possible.
