Classic Editor: Sidebar doesn't scroll so unable to save page

[AlexGStapleton]

Reported here

We've received reports of the Classic Editor sidebar sometimes getting stuck at the bottom of the sidebar while editing pages. This prevents users from being able to save the page or adjust any of the page related settings. We're unsure of the cause of this issue at this time, nor how to really replicate it but we've received enough reports of it happening over the years that it's clearly an issue.

Possible suggested workarounds:

try using your keyboard to zoom out and then zoom back in, the problem should resolve. Using Windows that’ll be Ctrl minus or Ctrl plus and on Mac it’ll be CMD plus or CMD minus.

Hi @Gandhi11 ,

Unfortunately, there has been no progress on this issue. This issue has proven to be very tricky to replicate so it's very tricky to test potential fixes for it as there's no way of knowing if the fix worked, or if the issue just didn't occur. If you've managed to find a method of replicating this issue please let us know.

Kind regards,
Alex
