SP Page Builder Pro 5.1.9 Frontend Editor does not save properly

Asked by Hasse Ling 2 years ago Last activity 11 months ago

SP Page Builder Pro 5.1.9 Frontend Editor does not save properly. Save icon spins, and spins forever. Backend is still working fine.

Everything was working as it should at SP Page Builder version 5.1.8, Helix Ultimate 2.0.17 and Joomla 4.4.0. The only thing that is changed is the upgrade of SP Page Builder to version 5.1.9.

Anybody else got this issue, or a solution?

You are unfortunatly not alone having saving issues with the new SPPB 5.1.8 and above.
which browser are you using? for me the backend editor does not load anything on chrome and not everything on Edge. Frontend works fine just the settings from the page are not saved.
Same configuration as yours under php 8.1

I did make several tests again and have following bugs:

Page Overview:

  1. going to Pages does not load all the pages first. You have to change the Filter settings to published to find all.
  2. trashing or deleting pages does not work. Pages still there.

Editors (F)rontend / (B)ackend:

  1. On both editors the SEO settings from the page are not saved or at least are deleted as soon as you save the page.
  2. Load to Edit page Backend :
  • Chrome browser -> Page is empty.
  • Edge browser -> Page is the previous version
  1. Changes from the pages are not saved in Backend.
  2. Saving changes on Frontend kills the SEO info from the page.

Perhaps can an admin make a global issues Post for the SPBB 5.1.9?

Hasse Ling Asked this

Have tried on Opera, Chrome, Edge and Firefox. All of them was succesful in Backend, but none of them worked in Frontend.

Laurent Robin

can you please try to update the SEO settings from the page image and description and see what happens?
For me it does save the change once in Frontend but then by re-opening the page editor it's all gone. means it will be deleted if i save again.

Hi guys.

Everything works well for me in frontend and backend. Perhaps some browser extensions affect this. Run the browser with disconnected extensions and check.

Or things like Joomla chache plugin, Cloudflare, JCH Optimize and similar, can be reason of these problems. When you edit the site, any caching should be clean and OFF.

Hey pavels, thanks for your contribution! unfortunatly i did check this. also clear the complete cache.
unfortunatly this did not resolve the issue.
which versions are you using and which browser? (joomla, helix, Page builder and PHP) ?

Laurent Robin

this is a brand new install. nothing installed just the page builder. Caching is OFF

Pavel

J 4.4.0, SPPB 5.1.9, HU 2.0.17, PHP 8.1 (CGI), Firefox, Chrome

Laurent Robin

hmmm that's really weird. Also no problem by saving/updating the SEO from a page?
can this be something on the hosting?

Pavel

I can only assume that the reason can be in PHP operation mode. I use CGI - it is always works with SPPB. FastCGI (Nginx + PHP-FPM) - if the Nginx does not have a sufficient memory limit, then this can cause problems

Laurent Robin

I have this:

PHP-Version 8.2.12 FastCGI

memory_limit
2048M

max_execution_time
300

max_input_time
300

post_max_size
128M

upload_max_filesize
128M

opcache.enable
on (Standard)

disable_functions
opcache_get_status

PHP-Version 8.2.12

Never use the latest PHP version. This is only for the developers of applications so that they are one step ahead or for sites manually written by an experienced developer. For production sites based on ready-made solutions, use the version no more than the penultimate.

I have this: ... FastCGI

It is not in PHP settings, but in server settings

Laurent Robin

i did set it down to 8.1 and still have the issue.
Weird also is that i do not have the same behaviour in Edge as in Chrome.

Pavel

Sorry, but my ideas are over :)

Laurent Robin

thanks anyway!

So... i was able to solve the problem doing this:

  • disable mod_security on host.

  • on chrome the issue was also solved using the cache killer add-on.

    • in the htaccess:

SetEnv no-gzip 1

<IfModule mod_expires.c>

ExpiresActive Off

</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_headers.c>

Header always set X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin 'origin-list' 
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true
Header set Cache-Control "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"
Header set Pragma "no-cache"
Header set Expires 0

</IfModule>

i hope it helps other people.
At least its weird this issue only concern the SPBB component...
