Latests Posts block not working when I choose a category

[ad_1]

Hello,

I am working on setting up a food blog and want to display all the posts from one category on a page. (a page for breakfast recipes, a page for dinner recipes, etc) I am trying to use the Latest Posts block. Everything works fine, but when I click update, I get an error message “Updating failed. The response is not a valid JSON response.”

I have tried everything on every blog post about how to fix this issue to no avail. I did notice that the site updates fine when I do not choose a specific category, and leave the category section blank. It is only when I choose a category and try to update it, I get that error message. So I was wondering if this is a problem with the theme? or is there something else I can try to fix this issue? (I have already tried changing/saving permalinks, deleting .htaccess file, checked the urls and mixed content)

Thanks!
