I’ve recently been having issues when trying to save pages in WP.
It’s an intermittent issue and happens every 4 or 5 saves sending me to an error screen showing the content below:
This site can’t be reached. The connection was reset. ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
I have spoken to hosting support team over the last week however they have been unable to source the issue or find a resolve.
All plugins are up to date, WP core is up to date as is Enfold theme.
I have tested the issue on multiple machines and various networks however issue is persistent.
I have also set up a staging site on a different server and having the same issue.
PHP version: 7.3.30
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

I doubt that the problem you are having is theme related, does the same thing happen if you activate one of the default WordPress themes for example? Also, what did you hosting provider check or do on your site? If you need further help for us, then please include admin WordPress login details in private, so that we can have a closer look. If you have server logs, then please share them with us as well.
Best regards,
RikardOctober 27, 2021 at 1:15 pm #1326668Hi Rikard,
Thank you for getting back to me. I have tried the site using a default WP theme and all works fine. I think I’m having issues with the page builder. Sometimes I get a spinning icon when loading the page up or I get the black screen with error message as noted above.
My hosting support team (at TSO Host) response was as follows:
“I do believe that what you are experiencing might be caused by your site requiring more resources and hitting the limit when performing certain operations etc. Reviewing the situation further I noticed that the site was set to use 512MB memory and have decided to temporary change this to 1024MB as well increased the values of certain PHP directives via the .user.ini file located inside the site’s folder. Please do check and see whether this improves the situation and let us know of the results.”
However after this update the issue still persisted.
They are now suggesting I upgrade my hosting package to one that will cost nearly double, however this is a small website with very little in the way of functionality.
I’ve set up a staging site on my own server, also hosted by TSO, and have experienced the same issue.
I will send WP access in my next post below.
Thanks again for your help and advice.

October 27, 2021 at 5:06 pm #1326720Hi,
Thanks for the update and login details. I see that your site doesn’t have an SSL certificate, and your site location and URL is both using https, and that might be the reason, or part of the problem. Also, did you try disabling all plugins, to see if that changes anything?
Best regards,
RikardOctober 27, 2021 at 5:38 pm #1326725Hi Rikard, thanks for getting back.
The staging site doesn’t have a SSL – it’s not related to the issue which is identical to the one on the live site which does have a SSL installed. I have a number of staging sites on my own server that I use sub domains for but do not install certificates for until we move across to live. I’ve tested all plugins disabled on both live and staging yet the issue still happens.
It only does not occur when I change the themes to a standard WP theme.
I can send you login details for the live website if that would be more beneficial?

Thanks for the update. I tried reproducing the problem on your site, but I was not able to. I edited and saved the front page 5 times, and it worked as expected every time. I’m not sure if there’s anything we can do about this, since it’s not a general problem with the theme. I’m guessing that most likely due to some intermittent problem with your hosting environment. The error message you are referring to is generated by the browser, and it’s basically saying that the server closed the connection.
Best regards,
RikardOctober 28, 2021 at 10:10 am #1326780Hi Rikard,
The problem arose when working on a new page for the website which has a lot of text and html links. I’ll add in the link below in the private section as this is a staging site.October 28, 2021 at 12:31 pm #1326821Hi,
Thanks for the update and clarification, I understand the problem better now. I activated debug mode on your installation, and moved your content to a test page. The first one broke like your page did, so I tried copying each text block in manually in a second test page. This content seems to be causing the problem:
[av_textblock size='' av-medium-font-size='' av-small-font-size='' av-mini-font-size='' font_color='' color='' id='' custom_class='' template_class='' av_uid='av-kv6kfskr' sc_version='1.0' admin_preview_bg=''] <h3>Storytelling</h3> • Anne Basting TimeSlips, Creative Storytelling - <a href="http://www.timeslips.org/">http://www.timeslips.org/</a> • Sharing a Story - <a href="http://www.sharingastory.co.uk/">http://www.sharingastory.co.uk/</a> <h3>Dance</h3> • Cai Tomos - <a href="https://caitomos.com">https://caitomos.com</a> • Dancebase - <a href="http://www.dancebase.co.uk/participation/">http://www.dancebase.co.uk/participation/</a> • Dance for PD - <a href="http://danceforparkinsons.org/">http://danceforparkinsons.org/</a> • Dance for Parkinson UK - <a href="http://www.danceforparkinsonsuk.org/category/home/">http://www.danceforparkinsonsuk.org/category/home/</a> • People Dancing - <a href="https://www.communitydance.org.uk">https://www.communitydance.org.uk</a> • Scottish Ballet ‘Time to Dance’ - <a href="https://www.scottishballet.co.uk/join-in/sb-health/time-to-dance">https://www.scottishballet.co.uk/join-in/sb-health/time-to-dance</a> - <a href="https://www.scottishballet.co.uk/event/regenerate">https://www.scottishballet.co.uk/event/regenerate</a> • Spin Turn - creative movement - <a href="https://twitter.com/ElaineKordys">https://twitter.com/ElaineKordys</a> [/av_textblock]
I tried removing the quotes in this text: ‘Time to Dance’, and that seems to have worked. Could you check and verify that behaviour on your end as well please? I’m not sure why those quotes are causing problems, but you would try replacing them with the regular single quote characters instead: ‘
Best regards,
RikardOctober 28, 2021 at 3:08 pm #1326867Hi Rikard,
Very much appreciate your help with this. I’ve gone in to the staging and live site removing the quote characters however the problem still persists. I agree with you that the content is likely to be the issue here as opposed to the theme or page builder but cannot work out why it is causing the page builder and page to crash on save?
October 29, 2021 at 5:46 am #1326913Hi,
The content on the two pages in private is working on my end, please try coping the shortcodes to your live site. It might be a good idea if you create a new page, instead of overwriting an old one. If you haven’t activated debug mode on the live site, then please refer to this: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/intro-to-advanced-layout-builder/#debug-mode

Thanks for the update. I tried logging into your site, but the details you posted previously is not working anymore. Please post working login details in private. Also please share server logs with us.

Thanks for the update. So everything is working as it should after deactivating the Classic Editor plugin?
Best regards,
RikardApril 7, 2022 at 4:12 pm #1347582Hi Rikard – Yes, everything seems to be working fine now.
Didn’t realise there would be a conflict between Classic Editor and the Layout Builder?
