I am editing a page with WP Bakery Page Builder but somehow the settings changed. I am unable to edit the page with WP Bakery Page Builder again. A WordPress page editor is active that I am seeing first time. Anyone who has seen this before and has idea how I can revert back to WP Bakery Page Builder?
Incorrect page editor
This is how it should look like:
correct page editor
Please help. Thanks
The reason is, you have upgraded to WordPress 5.0 and many plugin that custom editor will may not work correctly with the new editor version called Gutenberg.
Easy way
...is install, activate Classic Editor (https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/) plugin and everything become "normal".
If you still seeing Block Editor, click Switch to Classic editor like the screenshot below.
Or click to Classic editor when you are on Posts list page.
Harder way
Downgrade your WordPress site to 4.9.5 will make anything be fine without losing any data.

I am having a weird issue I can't figure out. I am creating a SaaS App for a client using WP as the framework. I am creating shortcodes to place the content/code on each of the pages. The FrontEnd Dev is having an issue when they select a page to edit the Additional CSS in Customizing, as soon as they hit any key on the keyboard the page automatically redirects to the Homepage of the site. But it is not redirecting like when you click on a link, it seems like it just automatically replaces the shortcode content with the Homepage shortcode. It's really weird.
It doesn't matter what page I am on it will do it. Even pages where I don't have a shortcode on it, it's just a blank page. No errors in the console.
The actual SaaS App when not viewing it from the CMS of WordPress works just fine with no problems.
Any ideas?
UPDATE
I have been spending hours on this and I have just discovered the issue, problem now is that I have to figure out why it's doing it. Here is my update.
In my application I have some <a> (Links) that I code in using either window.location.href or window.location.replace. Using the app from the front-end there are no issues at all. BUT If you go to customize the theme from the WP Backend whenever you hit a key on the keyboard in "Additional CSS" it causes the site to go back to the previous page you were on when clicking a link that uses the redirects I mentioned. If I hardcode those links without using code then nothing happens and the pages do not redirect as intended. So the issue has something to do with using the coded redirects. I know when customizing a theme WP updates those changes live. I can see in console admin-ajax.php being called when editing the CSS. That is what I have so far.
I'm a CS student and it's currently my first internship ever. My mission is to modify the content of wordpress post through database (and later make an automation script) but the problem is that the website uses Elementor plugin. Whenever i make the modification through elementor interface, it shows up on the website and inside the databse table wp_post, but if i modify the content in the database, it doesn't show up on the website. However, if i turn off the elementor plugin, the modification does show up (but the style of the site is broken)
Does anybody know how I could update the content via the database without turning off elementor ?
Thanks so much in advance and have a great day
Trying to write first post in WordPress site.
But post editor tab extremely empty:
How can I editor tools tab like this:
including language switching.
P.s. multi language plugin installed.
Install WordPress classic editor to resolve this issue
the best solution for your question is that install a plugin called Classic Editor for download that you can search in plugin installation page with its name or click Download button In This Page
Today I logged into my WordPress admin and was prompted to "Update the database," no options were given so I did. After that, my pages showed a "new" visual composer based in blocks that showed none of my theme's components, but only a text block with a series of shortcodes.
It changed the usual backend vs frontend editor that the visual composer shows and allows me to manipulate my page through rows and columns.
PAGE EDITOR NOW:
PAGE EDITOR BEFORE:
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling plugins, the theme itself, etc. But no success so far.
Is there a way to revert to the last editor (no backups), or debug why I'm only getting shortcodes?
So as I was posting this question I logged into another one of my sites and saw an alert warning me of the automatic inclusion of "Gutenberg" (a new page editor) after version 5.0.1 of Wordpress. That was it.
According to their suggestion, I downloaded this plugin which solved my problem: https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/
Hope this helps someone!
I'm running a WordPress website with a custom template that is showing me a blank screen when I have not viewed the site in a few days. I've cleared the browser cache and I've empited all cache using w3 total cache. Once I cleared the cache,I typed in the URL each time, and it loaded the website perfectly. I did not copy and paste the URL. The URL combinations are listed below;
I've also provided a list of plugins that are currently installed on the website.

wpml multilingual cms v2.3.4
wpml string translation v1.2.2
wp user registration v2.4
Just wondering if there may be a plugin conflict or maybe a conflict between a plugin and wpml 2.3.4? I've got no issues disabling and re-enabling the plugins one by one, but if I cannot replicate the blank screen issue 100% of the time, disabling/enabling plugins will not be of any use.
I'm also running other websites on my server none of which are showing me this problem. The server I'm running is Ubuntu 10.04 with Apache and MySQL.
Any ideas on what might be causing this issue will be very much apppreciated.
by FTP - temporarly rename your plugin folder to something else (like plugin_new) AND your theme folder and css file (like mytheme.css.old) . that will revert to to the default theme and will disable all plugins . if you do not have default theme - install it.
If nothing terribly serious has happened (like some code hack) - It will give you access to the admin area to start troubleshooting.
Add this to your wp-config.php file:
#ini_set('log_errors','On');
#ini_set('display_errors','Off');
#ini_set('error_log','/home/example.com/logs/php_error.log');
Right after the following line:
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
Then you can check on the log after the white screen appears, and know for sure what happened.
Thank you for all of your suggestions. I somehow managed to repeat the blank screen with no information, which then allowed me to slowly disable and enable the plugins. Found out it had to do with the updating of WPML CMS Nav, WPML String Translation and WMPL Multilingual CMS. Once I updated them, the site worked fine, without the blank screen with no code.
Just in case anyone ever runs into this problem with W3 Total Cache, I found a fix for the random blank-page issue: just turn off ALL of the "Debug Options" under General Settings.
That fixed it for me after spending countless hours searching for the issue. Good luck!
