  Hi there, I’m tagging WordPress.com staff to help you with this issue because I experienced it yesterday.

  Am I correct in assuming you’re using Gutenberg? If so, as a temporary fix, try this because it worked for me:

  1. Save the post as a draft
  2. Use the Calypso editor to publish the post

  Please do let us know if that’s the case. :)

  Thanks Torres. I got it working today through clearing the cache.

  But I was trying different WordPress themes and accidentally switched permanently to a new theme and can’t recall what my old one was. I tried all the ones on there and cannot get my website back to the way I had it. Do you know of someway of finding out what theme you had at a previous time?

  Your help would be appreciated.

  Ah, glad that’s a solution, thanks.

  Staff can confirm your old theme, so you’ll likely receive this information within a few hours. :)

  Hi @, it looks like you switched from Independent Publisher 2 about a day or so ago. Not theme changes for a long time before that.

  Let us know if that isn’t the theme you were using.
