I'm trying to write a post and it seems to go fine until an unidentified point at which when I try to save the draft it boots me back to the site control panel.
I did see an error (once) which was ERR_BLOCKED_BY_XSS_AUDITOR which seemed to indicate a Chrome problem but when I tried on Firefox I had the same drop to control panel.

I was duplicating blocks then editing, so I tried retyping each element manually and saving after each but eventually the boot to control panel would happen again (seemingly without a particular reason).

Once the issue starts, when I reopen the draft I can no longer save or open preview without going back to the site control panel.
I have also tried opening a previously published post (in the editor) and tried to preview it without alteration with the same result.

I published the post and that worked, then went to unpublish and edit by adding a block. Stopped.
I also seem to be unable to upload images (upload failed). No idea if that is related.
Unpublished, and opened and it offered me a draft version. I think I selected to not use it and I was back editing. Publishing no problem, images uploading no problem.
Then back to the control panel.
Can't publish from the editor, but I can publish from the list of posts (green tick, red cross, etc).

Sorry for all the info, I'm hoping it will help!

I can't see anyone else having the same issue, but does this sound familiar to anyone?
Hey Jonathan,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. I have seen other sites that had similar issue but they are mostly related to them having some security plugins on their site which prevents the POST request from happening. I can't be sure if this is the same as your site since I do not have the access to the site to test this but it does seem to have the symptoms based on your explanation.

Perhaps if you could provide us with the back end and FTP access, we'll try to check and get back to you on this?

Thanks for looking at this Mark, I've edited the original ticket to include URL and login.

Additional note, this wasn't happening before the update so I wonder if that is related.

Hey Jonathan,

No problem at all and thanks for the access! I am able to logon to the site and try this out. However, I can't seem to replicate / reproduce this issue. Can you see if I am replicating it incorrectly? Here's my video, http://take.ms/xdgc8

You're doing what I was doing. It seems to be working here too now... perhaps the code gods are being kind!

I'll mark this is resolved unless it starts acting up again.

Thanks for looking.

Hey Jonathan,

Thanks for the input on this! Perhaps it was the cache that was acting up but if you ever encounter this again, please feel free to start a new thread and we'll look into this.
