SOLVED: Auto-Copy & Paste Issue [While attempting to edit text field in the builder canva]

Very Annoying Bug, whenever I finish editing a basic text, in the canvas, and then try to select another basic text to edit, the builder automatically copies and pastes the previous basic text value to the current basic text that I want to edit. I have to select a div or an element in order to avoid this auto-copy & paste issue.

Hope it will be fixed soon :slight_smile:

Hey @alfaituri , quick question: are you working locally or on a live server?

Do you have any clues as to when the problem starts to occur? So far, I can only reproduce it “randomly,” but I haven’t found a reliable way to reproduce it permanently.

Yes, it is weird!

Ans: I am working locally, it happens only when the canvas’ editing feature is used, and also it happens only on the first attempt. if you try to do it multiple times, it won’t take place.

Here is a good way to reproduce it

1- Select the text you want to edit (Let’s call it T1) with your mouse
2- Then pretend that you accidentally select another text element (Let’s call it T2)
3- Now, come back to T1 and select it, you will notice that the T2 value has been replaced with T1 so basically T1 and T2 have the same string value.

Conditions for reproducing the bug:

  • You need to use only the bricks builder Canva & mouse (for select / navigate).
  • Do not select any element in between while following the steps.

Work Environment:
Local: Windows 11,
Laragon (Server Management Tech) Apache/2.4.47 (Win64) OpenSSL/1.1.1k mod_fcgid/2.3.10-dev
Browser: Chrome is up to date | Version 114.0.5735.199 (Official Build) (64-bit)
WP version: 6.2.2. Bricks version: 1.8.3

@timmse any news here? It’s pretty annoying yet I don’t see a fix mentioned in 1.8.5.

I have this issue on live site using 1.8.4 and Firefox Dev on Windows 11 machine with mouse (not track pad).

Is your issue similar to this: Bricks Builder - Basic Text: Replacement Issue
