Thanks, done.

Thank you, good advise.

Just upgraded from 4.10 to the latest.

Before I say the next few sentences I have used Sensei since 2013, been very happy with it (I purchased the original WOO based sensei). I have made a lot of child theme based use of Sensei and when I could not do this I made some SMALL modifications to the Sensei code – and made those changes everytime I upgraded Sensei – I was fine with that.

I also (as Sensei did not supply it) my own code , Woocommerce and Wishlist to have a subscription model.

It all worked really, really great.

Until you made the two worst moves ever:
– Gutenberg and nothing but Gutenberg
– changed the email template mechanics in 4.12

Until then Sensei was really great. I could, in the child theme, make some changes to the email thingos and other stuff. I had many of my own extra email ‘templates’ based on your code.

It all worked beautifully.

Not anymore. For the last days I am trying to figure out how I can integrate my email stuff (that was working until 4.10 and possibly 4.11) and this bugger of an ^%*&^%^ editor (I used Astra and Elementor), and for Sensei
I used mostly the classic editor.

None of my template modifications came across. No mentioning of the changes you made.

Also I know you need the upsell, all good, but it’s becoming overwhelming and everywhere.

I have the same problem.
It happened after the update to 5.6

It just hangs.
Turning of filebird everything works.
Turning on filebird NO images (png,gif,jpg) in media folder are loading.
It is simply stuck.

Reverting back to the previous version of wordpress all works again.
It is a problem after updating to 5.6

I agree with you @curiomuseum. I have about 15 wordpress sites using different themes, theme builders and page builders and various complication levels and amount of plugins used (some are mine).

Gantry is a “Next Generation Theme Framework” that I use on a few wordpress sites and about 10 joomla based sites.

Gutenberg wants (or is?) competing with this, I cannot use the “editor” for this, it breaks everything.

And what will happen to all of these: [Link redacted]

The problem I have Gutenberg seems to request all the other themes/page builders to follow their block structure, in fact competing with all the other ones and requesting following Gutenberg’s way.

It should not be made part of the core, it does not allow other ways of creating pages to co-exist.

Orlando, AFAIK this is what Gutenberg wants to be.
Although in the introduction to the Gutenberg editor it is written “Many developers do not understand every document is made up of blocks” I have known for a long time this to be the case, my documents are based on that. Gantry’s thinking is going the same way – except they are called “Particles”.
I understand what Gutenberg wants to achieve, it wants to play with blocks being able to change every block on its own – styles,widgets,whatever.
But then it starts competing with ALL of the other ones out there, on top of that it requires ALL other page builders to follow the BLOCKS created by wordpress.
It also means the freedom wordpress had for years is being coerced other page builders have to follow the blocks of Gutenberg.

That is a problem!

OK, I figured it.

I have a number of custom functions in the file “somdn-custom-functions.php” to e.g. write some custom HTML code before the button.

To do this I was using one of your functions “somdn_is_product_free”. You changed the parameters passed to the function, which used to be the price as first parameter, now its the product object. Since I had not changed the parameters when calling the function it upset the price used in the call on line 186.

BTW, when updating the plugin you still WIPE the file somdn-custom-functions.php, the last time I pointed this out you were trying to find a way to stop that.

thanks @tami73.
I, too, lodged a but report on github – this isn’t right.

I have the same issue.

The problem (unable to update plugins) ONLY happened AFTER I upgraded to 4.3 – so the culprit *IS* 4.3.

I have never had any problems (for lots of years) upgrading my wordpress install and/or my plugins.

Further, I have not changed a thing, absolutely nothing. No permissions, no settings, no added plugins, no deleted plugins.

I only upgraded to 4.3 and this happened.
I use FS_METHOD -> ssh2.

Totally agree, “nickiler”.
You stated on the plugin page that you wrote that for yourself and then gave your time to make it open source – “umbergerba” should have a real good hard look at himself, so rude.

Thanks Patrick Nommensen, this fixed my problem, included it in the httpd.conf of all of my servers.
