Project description not saving

[ArneRobot]

Hello LayTheme-team,

I have a problem with the project descriptions: I copy a project and try to change and save the project description but after saving the project it always changes back to the previous content of that field.
Here is the link: http://koeterhai.de/de/kuenstler/theskavengers-de

I use the theme Version 2.3.3 and WordPress Version 4.9.

Do you have any idea how to fix that?

Thanks and regards,
Arne

HI @ArneRobot
so you cannot just duplicate a project? It should create a new project with the ending Copy.

Let me know!

Hello Marius,

yes, I CAN duplicate a project and I CAN change all info in the gridder. Everything BUT the project descriptions. When I change those and hit "Aktualisieren" (blue WP button) on the page it changes back to the text that was there before.

I think that it doesn't write my edit to the database anymore but changes back to the text that was saved there before.

Thank you and regards
Arne

Small update: I am testing on this bug and I am pretty sure that it has to do with the latest WordPress version.

I installed a testing stage version of my website (no plugins): same problems!

I made a clean install (just the theme, no plugins) with WP 4.9 with an older Lay Theme (Version: 2.1.2): same problems!

Cheers, Arne

I made a downgrade in my clean test install to WP 4.8.3 and the project descriptions work again. Lay Theme versions: 2.1.2 and 2.3.3.

Hi @ArneRobot !

Thank you for your help with looking for the mistake. That helps us as well.

I just made a couple of tests here and all seems to work fine.

Best is if you write an email to marius@thepeople.world and include your username, password and a link to this conversation.

Hello Marius.

Do you want the login data for my customer's website?

Hello!

Marius and you found out it doesn't work on Firefox. If you update lay theme now, it should work again. Yea, it was a compatibility issue with the latest WordPress update.

Maybe you need to clear your cache to make it work, not sure.

Have a good day!
