    hi Brajesh,

    I’m just finished with a pile of plugin upgrades on my site, related to the recent WP 5.0 Gutenberg release, which as you will know uses a different editor. I noticed when updating an existing blog post that the content area looked wildly different to previously. Essentially all the “controls” are gone, except for the “add media” button. So, no “add link”, “formatting”, “bold”, “alignment”, etc. all gone. Also /members/$username/buddyblog/edit appears to have disappeared…

    The versions I have are: WP=5.0.1, BP=4.1.0, BB=1.3.3, SFEP=1.3.5

    My question then is whether you are intending to upgrade buddyBlog (and simpleFrontEndPost) to maintain compatibility with the new WP editor interface, or do I need to look for a different solution?

    Thanks in advance for any helpful feedback.

    R.

    Hi Richard,
    The plugin is compatible with WordPress 5.0+

    Please see how the editor looks here

    If it is not looking like this, there may be some other plugin or code causing the issue.

    ok, your image looks exactly as expected, maybe it’s a local conflict. I’ll investigate further (and close this). Many thanks for your prompt feedback!

    hey Brajesh,

    this may have been simply “my bad” as I think I was surprised by being sent to the backend to edit instead of the frontend. Hence a relatively simple case of user-confusion. It’s all good at this end, as one would expect 🙂

    Apologies for wasting your time.
