Dev preview theme editor blank page

Online Store and Theme Development
1

Short description of issue

Today, Shopify CLI updated and I encountered a problem where I couldn’t load the theme editor page. If access theme editor on the Shopify admin page is still working. I tried creating a new store, initializing a completely new theme, and encountered the same error, so the problem can’t be with my theme code.

Reproduction steps

Run shopify theme dev --store *url*
in terminal press E to open theme editor

Additional info

Checking the devtools console shows a warning:

main-e4a52d1a9a07.js:2 using deprecated parameters for the initialization function; pass a single object instead
main-3403453323ba18a…660d5d7876dc.1.js:6 Dux iframe sync: Blocked message from unauthorized origin: https://admin.shopify.com

I am also getting this issue since the update! I also had a lot of issues editing other themes on the store. I found that I can no longer click “open in new tab”, I MUST click the edit theme button and open in the same window.

Hi @axiom, thanks for the report! We’ve received a couple more via our Support teams and I have been able to replicate.

From my testing this occurs on Partner Dev stores and not Plus Dev stores, and isn’t specific to the latest CLI version - I replicated on 3.88.0

We’ve raised this with the responsible team internally and I’ll follow up here once I have additional info to share - thanks again for flagging!

Any update you can share? This seems to be quite a critical issue. We’ve been struggling with this the whole day and need to push urgent updates…

Hey @Liam-Shopify What’s the latest update on this issue, and when can we expect it to be resolved?

This has started to become a critical blocker on our end, so any timeline or status update would be greatly appreciated.

This issue still doesn’t appear to be resolved. I’m still experiencing the same issue that started yesterday.

Hey @Liam-Shopify

Could you please share an update on this issue? It has now been affecting us for quite some time and is becoming a significant blocker on our end.

We are still experiencing the same problem and haven’t seen any improvement so far. Even an estimated timeline or a brief status update would be greatly appreciated, as it would help us plan accordingly.

@Liam-Shopify The deep link to our app embed is also not working, since that also opens on the theme editor page, getting the same errors (blank screen, websocket failure on console) as the one reported in this thread - Shopify Theme Editor Blank Screen + WebSocket Failure.

Please let us know if this affects the deep link also.
