Throws a warning when updating post and etc

[kiwimarc]

I'm using wordpress version 5.5.1 and classic editor version 1.6.
When I want to update a page. post or etc it throws warning showed in the image. It does save the changes, but I would still prefer if the warning wasn't popping up.

@kiwimarc does that message also appear when saving or publishing a post/page/etc or just updating one?

[kiwimarc]

It only comes up if I previous had saved it or published it.

@kiwimarc I'm not able to reproduce that. Can you share other plugins that are installed in case one of them is contributing to this?

are you using both elementor and classic editor? i mean sometimes you use elementor and sometimes classic editor?

[kiwimarc]

Yes I use both.

[Capitanbasa]

Yes I use both.

have you try clearing your browsers cache

Hmmm, this is a pretty strange error message. The second line: "The comment changes you made will be lost." doesn't exist in WP, and (as far as I see) it's not in any plugin that's in the repo. Think the key to finding what causes this is to find the plugin that contains that line.

Yes, I have tried it on:
Safari - Mac and Iphone
Chrome - Windows and android
Edge - Windows

The problem is that I only get this error message when classic editor is active. If I deactivate it, the error disappears.

I only get this error message when classic editor is active.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something. Where exactly do you see this error?

• On the new Edit Post screen (block editor/Gutenberg).
• On the old Edit Post screen (classic editor/TinyMCE).
• Somewhere else?

On the old Edit Post screen (classic editor/TinyMCE) and on the new Edit Post screen (block editor/Gutenberg) if the plugin is active

@kiwimarc I can't figure out where that error message is coming from. Could you download all of your plugins (if you don't already have local copies), then run a text search on all files.

Looks like TinyMCE may be initialized on a textarea that is intended to edit comments, perhaps? And after the initialization somehow that textarea value is changed. That's just a guess, to get to the bottom of this will need to look at the code doing it :)

[themc-george]

I see it in wp-admin/js/edit-comments.js

Oh wow, I have first now seen that you replied.
But as @themc-george says its in the wp-admin/js/edit-comments.js
