WordPress Front-end Editor Error
In my work i use a plugin for WordPress call WPLMS (WordPress Learning Management System). After updating WordPress I began receiving a error messages. I tried updating my theme (WPLMS). I tried updating the plugins. But the error was persistent. This was the error: “WordPress Front-end Editor currently only works between versions 3.9 and 4.0-alpha.” Finally, I was able to resolve the issue by manually deleting the plugin.
