The Edit Image function in the media gallery has suddenly stopped working, I have done basic trouble shooting and even reached out to our host provider for assistance. He informed me that when he turned the Newspaper Theme off and switched to the default Twenty Sixteen theme the edit ability began to work.
We are currently coming close to launch and need to resize photos for thumbnails and articles, can anyone advise?
Make sure you have enough memory allocated to WP, try disabling any plugins which mess with images (e.g., you can’t edit an image on CDN from WP); and generally best to edit photos on your local HD using Photoshop, GIMP, etc. Also check stuff like php timeout and such settings. And do F12/console in Chrome to see if any errors while in the admin panel or media panel.
Stuff “suddenly” not working, is usually not related a theme, but a plugin or WP update.
Thank you for the response and clarification Chris, I will pursue further into it.
