I open a page and make an edit and the update button becomes grayed out. I have to copy all page content, refresh the page and paste it back in the page, only then does the update button become clickable. It does update the page so there is no issue with that.
Only when making the initial edit is in not clickable.
Update: I was able to recreate the issue, but not faithfully. It seems to occur when the page is trying to auto save. It would begin to autosave and then hang.
I don’t even know where to begin with this one. Has anyone encountered something similar?
It appears to be a bug, but one that can be hacked around each time it happens with about 2 seconds of work. This wordpress forum thread:
If you’re using Chrome, right-click on the greyed-out “Update” button
and select “Inspect Element”. You will see something to the likes of:
<input name="save" type="submit" class="button button-primary
button-large disabled" id="publish" accesskey="p" value="Update">
Just delete the word disabled and the update button will become
clickable again. Click it and it should update.
Saved me reloading and losing work.
