php8.1.9 – it’s on localhost. I will see about trying it on a live site and if it improves. Thanks for the quick response.

Thanks for the rapid response… this does seem to answer the problem. Unfortunately I’m using a query-block to fetch terms – and I’ve no idea how to get the ID of the current term. But I’ll approach Bricks about it.

Appreciate the info.

I’m an idiot. It’s the ‘description’ text in settings. All good now.

@threadi – Thank you. Damn, and I just needed the right search (which I did try, many times).
Yes, my screenshot includes a couple of custom blocks, but the issue is vanilla WP, no plugins default theme – I’ve tried it.
Sorry for the ratty post, this thing has bugged me for ages, thanks again for the link…

Just to add… I have sites where there are hundreds of users… and editors can edit pages but are legally not allowed access to other users information… but here they get a list of emails – in the editor… thanks to an unannounced feature and there’s no way to switch it off… Someones great idea is now other people’s disaster… When is there going to be a control-panel/settings page where all this garbage can be switched off?
I’m still ratty it seems…

Forgive me, but I didn’t post this so you could tell me you didn’t have a problem with it. I do…
This mess is what I’m talking about.

I can’t click most of the context menu, and end up clicking all over the place to get rid of this stupid prompt. It often obscures things and won’t disappear. It cannot be dismissed or suppressed. I’m working in normal flow and I find my email, and/or existing links have changed – because my instinctive click, or enter, has hit this pop-up.

For me, there should be a way of removing the prompt. I don’t want it, and god knows the mess clients will get into with it on hand-over – accidentally adding their login emails to pages.
I get that some board-meeting of geniuses decided this would be helpful – and I’m delighted you have no problems with it – but for me and I have to imagine others it is annoying clutter.

Anyway – is there a way to remove it, even an ugly admin hacky removal of the js or anything…

Vanilla WP – no plugins at all, 2022 theme

Type an email, up pops my login name in a tooltip.

This is a common issue, as WP has changed how it adds classes to menus items. You can bypass it by changing this:
(menu link) https://mysite.com/#anchorname
to this:
(menu link) https://mysite.com/./#anchorname
Which stops WP recognising it as the same page, but the anchor still works.

Thanks @joyously
I’ve fed that back to my hosts. Now just to sit in the middle while each blames the other and hope something get fixed eventually!!
It’s just like politics ??

@whistlerdan – Also worth knowing (I’ve only used Gutenberg for a few days) – that there’s a ‘breadcrumb’ at the very bottom of the edit window. You can use this to select ‘containers’ – or any level of widget… and it makes selecting the right bit of the button widget much easier – it’s made life so much easier since I spotted this.

Will do. ??

That obvious eh! Was driving me nuts…

Thanks @carike – I’m moving away from page-builders and into hand-coding, letting customers use Gutenberg – I’m still very new to it! Appreciate the help.

Thanks so much @michael1950 for posting this solution – Several sites, all updates completed fine but no message ever arrived. Bugged me for weeks. But zlid.output_compression was the answer ??

@thompsonaire : When you create a project or ‘map account’ in Google console it gives you an API key to uniquely identify ‘who’ is asking for the maps.
Enter this in Events Manager settings.
The only reason you’d need to ‘pass it’ manually is if you were writing your own plugin/app.

I had a horrid time getting it working so am just re-posting my solution to some of the threads I found, in case this helps. In Events Manager I simply choose EMBEDDED maps because it’s all charities and they can’t afford to pay for maps.

Google Cloud Console -> API -> new project -> name the project etc…
APIs to enable:
Maps Javascript
Geocoding
Maps Embed
(at least that’s all I needed)

App restrictions (HTTP)
Include:
https://mywebsite.com/*
https://*.mywebsite.com/
mywebsite.com
*.mywebsite.com
(plus any you may specifically need – e.g. with www)

Create a billing account. My set-up didn’t work until I opted for a NEW billing acc, as a business – and included address etc.
LINK THE BILLING ACCOUNT
Just making it is only step one. Select your project from the top drop-down, then BILLING from the left. You should get a pop-up asking to connect to an account.
If you don’t link it, your maps may not work.

Now create a new location in EM, make it one you know works in google maps (I used my home). For me it worked, however, I still had to go to the old ‘broken’ locations and retype the first line before it would refresh and the location magically gain a map.)

Hope this helps anyone equally frustrated!
