Hi @sudip-10up

I've tested this plugin from both the WordPress plugins repo and the develop branch and I'm able to see the Special characters option. See below:

I'm not sure which version you've used but if you're using the develop branch, ensure you've run npm install && npm run build to build the assets.

Let us know if you're still facing problems.

As you are testing on WP 5.9 RC version and @Sidsector9 is testing on WP Stable 5.8.3(I believe).
Please try once on stable WP 5.8.3 version with the same steps you are following on RC. If this is working on stable WP then this is related to new upcoming version of WC 5.9. Thanks!

@ankitguptaindia I have tested with WP 5.8.3 version and it was working fine. @Sidsector9 I have also run npm install && npm run build as well.

@ankitguptaindia @sudip-10up, I've tested the plugin repo and develop branch versions on WP5.9-RC1 and they both work fine for me. Please check both the videos below:

Develop branch version

Plugin repository version

Going forward, it would be helpful to list the following environment details in the issue so that it will be easier for devs to reproduce:

Versions for:

  • WordPress and the plugin in question
  • PHP
  • Server and its version
  • Node, Composer and NPM (if the issue pertains to it)

Hello @Sidsector9 I'm using the following environment details.

WordPress - WordPress 5.9-RC1
plugin Version - 1.0.3
PHP - 7.3.5
Server and its version - nginx (1.16.0)
Node, Composer and NPM - I think issue is not related to Node, Composer and NPM (FYI - I'm using npm 8.2.0)

@sudip-10up Thanks for sharing the video. I believe I found the issue. I can't see the build directory in the root. Can you run npm run build to generate the build assets and test once more?

Slack huddle update:
Attendees: @sudip-10up and myself
Outcome:

  • It is now working on Sudip's local installation. The issue was due to the missing build directory.
  • Fixed broken git by installing xcode-select

Closing this as resolved.
