#46330 new defect (bug)

Preview showing commented HTML

Description

The way previews are generated in WP 5.1 have changed from 4.x.
IIRC, previously the page was saved to the database and a preview was read as HTML from there.

Now previews feel slower and seem to be generated through another mechanism
A number of errors are appearing in the new (?)generated(?) pages.
1) Commented HTML is showing when it should be hidden.
2) On my own site, some duplicate database results appear when they should be consolidated into one line.
In my case, these are for events that ran across several days.

Note: pages show as intended when page is saved and viewed normally.
This issue with preview only appeared for me when I moved to WP 5.1

Thank you for the bug report, @painter602!

Does this happen when you use the new block editor? Which plugin are you using to create your events list?

To get your site working as it did with WordPress 4.9, you can install the Classic Editor plugin, which will bring back the old editing interface while we figure out the fix.
