Ok, This is a weird one. I've been having problems with publishing /
updating certain posts/pages on two of my sites (on different servers but
same hoster). When I update the page or copy the html to a new page, the
publish/update never finishes, if I stop it using the stop button or
navigate away, I end up with half a post, (not stopping at any particular
point). After hours of investigation, and reading other peoples problems
with 2.7.1 being slow... I have a reproducable case on my blog.
I don't have ssh access to the server unfortunately, but I did enable
wp_debug and that didn't show up anything.
Here ([http://netoxide.co.uk/wpbug.zip] http://netoxide.co.uk/wpbug.zip)
is a zip file containing two text files.
Open works.txt in an editor, copy all the text, in wordpress create a new
PAGE (haven't tested it with new post) in html view paste the text in,
give it a title of 'works' and publish. Within a couple of seconds, the
page should be published.
Now do the same thing but with fails.txt, copy the contents, create a new
PAGE, title it 'fails', paste in the text and publish it.
On my server this sits there forever, until you get bored and stop it.
Now, I can here you crying out there must be something wrong with my
server. Maybe so. But here is the WEIRD BIT:
Copy the fails.txt, create a new PAGE and give it a title 'fails2', all
the same as before.
Now before you publish, there are a list of LI elements, about the 4th
paragraph
The first li element reads "How about a blog, that you can add to from
anywhere....."
change the word 'from' to 'frox' (yup that's right change the m to a x)
On my server the page will now publish no problem.
I asked on the forum for someone else to attempt to replicate this but
didn't get any feedback so far.
I have had this problem on another site, but haven't had chance to narrow
down the cause by removing blocks of text until it works.
