WP Site Fails To Save Edits

I'm not a developer.


My WP site fails to save any edits, etc. When I press "Update" I get a blank page with this URL "https://grayladyselfdefense.com/wp-admin/post.php" and the edits aren't saved. If I look at that page's source code I see a full page of code. 

I have logged in/out, purged server cache, cleared the page's cache from within WP, even stopped server caching but still happens. Happens in 2 different browsers.

If it matters the site is also using Cloudflare.

My gut tells me it's either some kind of caching, or maybe WP database issue but I'm not smart enough to figure it out.

Any guidance is appreciated.

It was a Cloudflare or caching issue. I turned off Cloudflare and the problem resolved.

While waiting for moderator approval I ran the MySQL check tool and saw no errors.

The test I ran does save to the MySQL database. So, it's definitely working.  However, if you're making changes in a different area that I haven't tested or noted, then it's possible that there is still an issue.  Please let us know and we would be happy to look into it further.

If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

Hello Ken,

Sorry for the problem with your WP site not saving changes. If you had recently made changes to the DNS, then it may have been an issue with the those settings.  However, I did test your WordPress site.  I created a post, saved it, then previewed it to see if it saved.  I also published the test post and then edited it and updated it with no issues.  At this point, it does appear that your site is working.  If you are continuing to have update issues, please give us more details about exactly what you're doing and trying to save.  We can then investigate the issue in more depth. 

If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.
