Issues since recent update

[jamesabbottphotography]

Hi

Since the recent WP update when creating posts I'm not able to create links or add tags. I'm not sure if there are any other issues but I've just given up on creting posts for now because of these glitches.

I've just discovered that I can't add media/images either.

Hi @jamesabbottphotography, Welcome to WordPres Trac! Thanks for the report.

Does the issue still happen with all plugins disabled and a default theme (Twenty Nineteen) activated?

i can't replicate above issue in fresh install WordPress 5.1

Hi

Thanks for the welcome and getting back to me. I've now resolved the issue. I ran a PHP compatibility checker and it turned out one of my plugins - a before/after image viewer - used version 4. I disabled the plugin and the problems were immediately resoved, so I then deleted and updated the PHP on my server to a newer version as suggested on the WP Dashboard. So all good now thanks, but thought it would be useful to explain the issue and fix in case anyone else suffers a similar problem.

Thanks again
