I notice quite a few times I edit something (e.g. change the width of a div / background color / font-size) - and it has no apparent affect.
It does work, and front-end it works. But to show in builder I have to do something that forces a layout shift, or refresh the screen.
It isnāt very often, or in any pattern I can see - but is I would say 2-3 times an hour when working around the site.
@digismith it could be a caching issue inside the website that you have most likely caching may take awhile depending on the configuration that you made.
Solutions
1.you can also try installing a ācaching clear pluginā and try clearing caches with it.
2. trying a āserver cacheā inside the hosting server that you have also helps.
@digismith issues like this happens when the website system is overwhelmed with every query you make. take an example like removing something inside the builder widget then removing it again and again sometimes it messes up the database from the backend.
Solutions like this involves re creating the layout on it . although its a very tedious procedure hope this helps.
Similar effect here! (donāt use any cache or optimize plugin.) it a new glitch from latest stable version. I found this glitch with php 8.xxx. With 7.4 php not problem.
The problem with these random issues is that they are very difficult to track. The hint from @simplecreative that the problem only occurs with PHP 8.x is a first hint. Is this also true for you @digismith ?
The phenomenon is certainly valid, because before version 1.7.3 I never experienced this or anything similar. The server environment is also varied, but the glich is the same.
For me itās only happened since the 1.8b. My local dev uses php8 - so yes, thatās common⦠but it always has - so it might be the combo of v1.8 and php8.
I did significant work on the same site in 1.7ās and this did not happen once. So my only āchanging factorā - was v1.8b. Aside from a few lines of global css in my child theme - I have not altered any of my code or functions, and donāt load/run any js outside of native Bricks. So the environment is stable/unchanged as near as it can be.
Plugins which may load in-builder are ACF, bricksextras, AdvancedThemer and happyfiles.
I have some ābackendā code, to filter post columns, switch post-types and duplicator.
Iām using wpLocal for the dev environment.
It canāt really be due to the PHP version, as the data is processed with Javascript. As I said, as long as we donāt have any clues, we canāt do anything. Please get in touch as soon as you have any new clues that can help us track down the problem.
This is also happening to me. Iām very new with bricks, so itās driving me crazy because I keep thinking that Iām doing something wrong or that thereās something preventing my formatting. After a page refresh it usually works, but not every time. Itās late, so I only read a few in this thread. Iāll read the rest of it tomorrow in case someone has a solution.
Unfortunately, we still havenāt received any concrete information on how we can reliably reproduce the problem and therefore donāt have a starting point yet. If you find a way, please let us know.
Iāve been experiencing this as well for some time now. Obviously itās a bug out there, even if itās not easy to reproduce. My site is running PHP 8.1, and I believe every site I experience this with is using PHP 8.1. What other information can I provide to help pin this one down? Itās really annoying.
