Hi there, 

I’m unable to publish a new version of the pligin this evening. The error only shows in the console, but I can see that the Author (Share As) section is empty, there’s no way for me to edit this.

validation error INVALID_AUTHOR 


 

vendor-core-26236cac…ecfa60.min.js.br:54 Error(s) from AuthorField.validate:

  1. [{…}]
    1. 0:
      1. data:
        1. currentValue: {user_id: '1538088927895590002'}
        2. [[Prototype]]: Object
      2. key: “INVALID_AUTHOR"
      3. type: "validation"

 

Can you advise?

@Celine_ not that error,

This is blocking me from releasing a plugin to my company….
 

In the console I see:
