Some of my content disappear after edit the page
-
I use the following format to show information about music works and their publishers:
SONATA A DUO N.4 (fl, guit) (1975) <Publisher: BÈRBEN [E. 2594 B.]>
Today (17-10) I clicked on the ‘Edit’ button and everything after ‘<‘ desappear. All the is left are:
SONATA A DUO N.4 (fl, guit) (1975)
It occurs in every page I try to edit
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

@repertoireguitar can you confirm you are using the visual editor at https://wordpress.com/post ?
If you use that symbol in the text editor it may be stripped since that is a character used in coding.
-
Yes, I’m using the visual editor, visual mode (not html). The first time I published the text it stays ok, the problem happen when I try to edit after published. The edit option work just fine for two years, these start to happen recently, I notice today. Maybe its a new implementation? Or should I use other caracter?

@supernovia I believe is the default WordPress editor, once logged I just click in the “Edit” option on anypage in my blog and start typing. The selected tab on says “Visual”.

Thanks. I have not been able to duplicate this yet. First I created a new post on my test site, using https://wordpress.com/post .
I clicked on HTML and put this in the body:
SONATA A DUO N.4 (fl, guit) (1975) <Publisher: BÈRBEN [E. 2594 B.]> Today (17-10) I clicked on the 'Edit' button and everything after '<' desappear. All the is left are: SONATA A DUO N.4 (fl, guit) (1975)I saved, and the symbols were still there. I clicked edit, made an adjustment, and saved. The symbols are still there.
If I click on the HTML tab and save (or auto save), the symbols go away.
I am using Chrome on a mac.
Can you give me the exact steps you’re using?
-
@supernovia I’m using Windows 10, the same thing happens on Firefox 49.0.1 and Chrome 54.0.2840.59 m. I follow the same steps you done. Here is some screenshots.

I also try check and uncheck the option “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” on mystite/wp-admin/options-writing.php and doesn’t work.
-
Thank you. We did make an update to the code yesterday — can you try clearing the browser cache and giving it another go?
-
Hi supernova,
I have also experienced the same or similar problems today. The editor even strips away valid CSS codes. For example:
[code language="css"]
<div style="text-align: center; line-height: 1.5; font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 1em;">Some Heading</div>
[/code]
becomes
[code language="css"]
<div>Some Heading</div>
[/code]
This serious problem has severely ruined the formats, element placements and styling of posts that I am trying to update or publish.I urgently look forward to the problem being remedied. Thank you in anticipation.

@chusmz you’ve confirmed your code works now after clearing the browser cache, right?
@soundeagle can you confirm whether that solves your issue?
-
-
Okay, clearing the cache just forces a refresh of the code. I’m glad this resolved on its own for you.
-
-
Thanks for all the answers. Unfortunately still doesn’t work for me. Only work the first time after login, after that the text between <> disappear. I also try on Firefox on ArchLinux and the result was the same.
-
@repertoireguitar can you verify you are using Visual mode only, and not switching to HTML mode? And that you are starting at wordpress.com/post ? I cannot duplicate this yet and need more information.
-
@supernovia yes, I’m using only Visual mode and I just try some text on wordpress.com/post, the same error still occurs.
Windows 10 + FF 49.0.2
