“wpp” block errors

Hi @chipur,

Have you checked the developer tools as WordPress recommends? If so, did you see any error messages in there? I need more details (and reproduction steps if possible) so I can help.

Also, do you get the same error message if you try to do the same thing on desktop?

Thank you for your prompt reply. I’ll have some answers shortly.

Though I’ll continue to try, I’m embarrassed to say I can’t even get to Develop menu. This doesn’t work…

Launch Safari and navigate to the menu “Safari > Preferences… > Advanced Tab” and enable the option “Show Develop menu in menu bar”. This will enable the “Develop” menu and all other features required to view webpage’s source. Doesn’t work in Settings either.

In the meantime, the errors still show when I go to widgets on mobile. They don’t on desktop; however, my widgets have been deleted.

Thanks for the extra details, Bill. Odd that it happens on mobile Safari but not on desktop. Might be a browser issue.

I don’t own an iOS device unfortunately so trying to replicate this issue might prove to be tricky. I’ll try using BrowserStack (a “cross browser testing platform”) and see if that gets me anywhere. I’ll let you know what my findings are.

Wow, that’s way over and above – thank you. I’ll continue to do whatever I can on my end.

Update: Did the theme and plugin disable/enable thing. The error messages appear only when WPP is enabled. And it occurs on both desktop and mobile. The other thing is when I go to widgets the dashboard gets hijacked to about:src.doc. I’ll keep poking around, but wanted to update. Thank you.

That’s pretty weird but thanks for the update nonetheless, Bill.

Can you please share the information from your Debug screen (Settings > WordPress Popular Posts > Debug) to see if I can try and recreate your settings and maybe trigger the issue?

Thank you, Hector…

Theme: Thesis (2.10.9) by Chris Pearson

Thanks! Some of these plugins are paid ones but fortunately the majority of them are free to install so I’ll give this setup you have a try sometime this weekend and see if I can reproduce the issue.

You’re the best, man. And I’ll do whatever I can on this end. Thank you…

For whatever it’s worth, on another forum someone offered: “Delete or rename the directory of that plugin.” Just wanted to put that out there.

Thanks again, Hector…

Yeah, that will get rid of the error… by uninstalling the plugin ?? (which is a valid solution as well but I’d rather find out what’s the cause of the issue so I can help fix it).

Yessir, I agree.

Just got this, so hold on until I see if it works…

As @keithwjones suggested, you’ll need to install the Classic Widgets Plugin to get Thesis widgets working with WordPress 5.5+.
