This plugin is experimental. You’re welcome to try it, just be aware that it is only designed to work on the WordPress.com environment and could break after an update.
I’d give a better review but it crashes if you try to update wordpress or the plugin…
After activating the plugin I’ve couldn’t access to WP desktop panel. I’ve had to rename the plugin folder to have access to my panel.
Very annoying.
Admin panel is not working anymore after installation. Error:
Een fout van het type E_ERROR werd veroorzaakt op regelnummer 130 van het bestand /home/sisoft/webapps/sisoft-nl/wp-content/plugins/full-site-editing/help-center/class-help-center.php. Foutmelding: Uncaught Error: Class “Jetpack_Options” not found in /home/sisoft/webapps/sisoft-nl/wp-content/plugins/full-site-editing/help-center/class-help-center.php:130
WordPress error message
Still causing the fatal errors it has been. Recently updated four days ago, but only compatible up to 6.0.3, whereas WordPress itself is 6.1.1. Coming from Automattic you would think they would have fixed it by now. Hopefully soon. Until then, dueces.
Fortunately I installed it in a staging environment first.
There is several support threads about this, but the developer seems to be ignoring them.
