AFTER INSTALLING WORDPRESS 5.0 WE ARE ABLE TO POST AND SAVE DRAFTS
BUT AFTER ACTVATING Cloudflare WE ARE UNABLE TO POST OR PUBLISH OR SAVE DRAFT EVEN PAGES ALSO…

ERROR SHOWING “Updating failed” and “Publishing failed”

Can you take a screenshot of your Page Rules tab? And, are you on a paid plan? is WAF turned on?

I just installed wordpress 5.0 without any problems, with the default WAF rules set, and encountered no problems.

Same issue - after looking at the request, the site is trying to POST using my home IP address
Which, Cloudflare is blocking as its not originating from the host server IP

  1. Request URL:
    https://-----------------/wp-json/wp/v2/pages/84875?_locale=user
  2. Request Method:
    POST
  3. Status Code:
    403
  4. Remote Address:
    Cloudflare IP
  5. Referrer Policy:
    strict-origin-when-cross-origin

The response is a CAPTCHA form

Thanks @Judge

  1. NO page rules is there. no pages page rules seted yet…
    2.Free plan
  2. WAF MEANS FIREWALL RIGHT???
    If it is by default …

Check your list of firewall events, you’ll probably see one with your current IP on, listed as “Challenged”
Whitelist it as a temporary work around

WP has released a plugin to help users get back to the Classic Editor after upgrading to 5.0.
Add and activate that plugin

Due to ssl issue. we have to install a ssl plugin in wordpress 5.0 otherwise it will not be able to post or save draft…

For those that are experiencing this issue and it is not related to SSL, I found the following helpful in solving for my particular use case:

My favorite was the WP forum simply closing the discussion to replies after one of the admins stating that you should, “turn off all security plugins”. Yea, that’s a GREAT idea for the most attacked blogging/CMS platform on the planet.
