    Hi, It’s been a while since I’ve edited my wordpress site (address below). It seems like some things changed in WordPress and I’m not sure if there is just a new way for making edits or my site/code is compromised. For example, every time I click on a previous text block, I receive the following message in the element preview: “It seems you are currently adding some HTML markup or other special characters. Once all HTML tags are closed the preview will be available again. If this message persists please check your input for special characters and try to remove them.”

    Then, when I try to edit the box, all I see is code like the example included in the private message It shows that code on every element I open or try to edit. It shows it in all white text (invisible) when I select “visual” and you can only actually see the text when I select “text”

    Help please?

    Hey dorikoren,

    Are you running WordPress 5.0.x? If so then you might need to disable the Gutenberg editor, you can do so by adding this to your functions.php file:

    // disable for posts
add_filter('use_block_editor_for_post', '__return_false', 10);

// disable for post types
add_filter('use_block_editor_for_post_type', '__return_false', 10);

    I see that you are running an older version of the theme, if you update to 4.5.3 you will get an option to select the Classic Editor in the theme options, then you wouldn’t need the code I posted above.

    The update to 4.5.x has to be done manually from the version you are running, please refer to my replies in this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/#post-1021541

    You can either update manually via FTP: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#theme-update, or use a plugin to upload the theme zip file: https://wordpress.org/plugins/update-theme-and-plugins-from-zip-file/

    Also please read this after you have updated: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/

    Best regards,
    Rikard
