HI Same issue here, I'm able to open the category and browse the default item inside it http://localhost:9000/app/categories
but when I try to add a new category I'm getting the above error.

please advise

[LRboyz]

When will this problem be solved? It's urgent.🔥

[Deroswent]

The same bug when you try to create category.

This bug is blocker, please take a look and fix it

[Marwan-Dalaty]

@sradevski @shahednasser, Please check the above as it wasn't included in the new release and is a critical fix.
Also kindly note that if you change the category name, it doesn't reflect the new name in the storefront UI

Hi why we are not getting reply from Medusa team on this ticket?

[HarleySalas]

Can we at least have some response as to why it hasn't been assigned? Did you guys forget about it? @sradevski @srindom

[sradevski]

Hey all, it hasn't been forgotten, it's just a matter of priorities. We'll tackle it as soon as the other, higher priority work, is done.

Hi all, this problem has already been solved by the community in the Discord channel (https://discord.gg/medusajs):

1. Add vite-plugin-commonjs as dev dependency
2. Add this in medusa-config.js

  admin: {
    // your code
    vite: () => ({
      plugins: [
        commonjs({
          filter: (id) => /node_modules\/react-nestable/.test(id),
        }),
      ],
    }),
  },

Hi all, this problem has already been solved by the community in the Discord channel (https://discord.gg/medusajs):

It doesn't work. Clear medusa preview installation + npm install -D vite-plugin-commonjs + change standard medusa-config.js = error when start medusa develop: ReferenceError: commonjs is not defined

medusa-config.js:

import { loadEnv, defineConfig } from '@medusajs/utils'

loadEnv(process.env.NODE_ENV, process.cwd())

module.exports = defineConfig({
  projectConfig: {
    databaseUrl: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
    http: {
      storeCors: process.env.STORE_CORS,
      adminCors: process.env.ADMIN_CORS,
      authCors: process.env.AUTH_CORS,
      jwtSecret: process.env.JWT_SECRET || "supersecret",
      cookieSecret: process.env.COOKIE_SECRET || "supersecret",
    }
  },
  admin: {
    vite: () => ({
      plugins: [
        commonjs({
          filter: (id) => /node_modules\/react-nestable/.test(id),
        }),
      ],
    }),
  },
});

Pls add import: import commonjs from 'vite-plugin-commonjs'

[Deroswent]

Pls add import: import commonjs from 'vite-plugin-commonjs'

Thanks, after I added this - no more error when starting medusa develop, but I still receive error Error: Element type is invalid when try to edit ranking or create category.

So, unfortunately this solution doesn't work
