WP Payment Gateway Bundle disabling page parent option in the Gutenberg editor

[JoshMyself]

Hi,

When I enable the WP Payment Gateway Bundle, I can no longer select a parent page for a new page if it is viewed within the new Gutenberg editor. When editing a page, under “Page Attributes”, you can normally choose a “Page Parent” and the “Order” for the page. However, with this plugin activated, the “page parent” option is removed/hidden completely.

Deactivating the payment gateway bundle plugin re-enables the option to choose a page parent again within Gutenberg.

Editing the Page with the classic editor instead of Gutenberg, also enables the option to choose a page parent. (So it’s currently only a minor inconvenience to switch back to the classic editor to change the page parent.)

I realise that the Gutenberg editor is currently a separate plugin, but as it will soon become a core part of WordPress, I thought you might want to know that there’s a potential conflict there, so this is more of a heads-up for you guys to be able to keep up the great work.

Great set of plugins thanks!

We will look into it. Can you please tell me which version of the gateway bundle you are using?

I am also experiencing this problem. I’m running:

Wordpress 5.0.3

Default twentynineteen theme

WP Payment Gateway Bundle Version 2.3.3

All other plugins deactivated.

I can still select the parent page in the Page list’s “Quick Edit” link. But the Page Parent dropdown disappears in the Editing window when the Gateway plugin is activated.

This problem could be related to this reported issue:

I can’t see how it is related to the gateway bundle addon. I have done a test on a site without the gateway bundle addon and I don’t see any difference in the “Page Attributes” section of the page. Is there another plugin maybe? Can you show me a screenshot (showing the section in question) of what you see without the addon?

I think you’re looking in the right place. See the “Parent Page” dropdown under “Page Attributes”.

Do note, however, that for whatever reason it takes a couple seconds for the “Parent Page” dropdown to pop up and display, even without the Gateway plugin enabled. So on a clean install take a look at the Page Attributes section after the the Edit page has FULLY loaded. Eventually the Parent Page dropdown will display.

Once the Gateway plugin is turned on, however, the Parent Page dropdown never appears.

AS stated above, this behavior occurs with no other plugins activated, on the default twentynineteen theme.

For me it doesn’t show up at all when I have a few plugins active (no gateway bundle). It looks like the new editor has a little bug there. I will wait for WordPress to apply some fixes there (the new editor has a some bugs that they are working on fixing).

I think you were right. It looks like the most recent version of WP fixed the problem. I’ll let you know if I see anything else.
