WP 5.3 RC1 - Getting error message when saving post/page when the Gutenberg plugin is activated.

[nick6352683]

I have a bug report and a question if it's intentional or a bug.

1. With WP 5.3 RC1, I get an error message when saving a post/page IF the Gutenberg plugin is activated. The message is: Updating failed. Error message: o is not a function

2. With WP 5.3 RC1 the columns do not respect the "boundaries", as a result we get a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the page - is this intended? Even though it looks weird, I like having the extra space. Activating the Gutenberg plugin, the columns stay within it's supposed boundaries, but of course by doing so, you cannot save the post/page as mentioned above.

I have a 90 second video (no sound) to demonstrate both points - ​https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVdr3z4rO_Q&feature=youtu.be

Thanks,
Nick.

Update: Today's Gutenberg Update v6.7.0 fixes both issues... The real question now is: Are the fixes for the columns going to make their way to WP 5.3 or we would have to install and activate the Gutenberg plugin?

Hey @nick6352683,

Thanks for creating this ticket, and welcome to Trac!

I reached out to the Gutenberg team to confirm a few things, and I think we have answers to these.

The first issue is from running WordPress 5.3 with Gutenberg prior to version 6.7.

The issue with columns has been fixed upstream in ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/17968. This will be merged into Core prior to 5.3 RC2.

Hope this helps!

@desrosj - Hi Jonathan, thanks for the update, I'm glad this fix will make it to WP 5.3... As usual, it's always a pleasure hearing from you.

Nick.
