Unable to reproduce so far. Can you still reproduce? Any error message toast notifications popping up when it fails?

1239 seems the only likely PR in 1.8.1 to cause something like this, but it _should_ have produced a toast notification if that was the case.

[Jinksi]

Yes, toast notification is:

Failed to persist entry: API_ERROR: Not Found

[erquhart]

Can you link to a repo that reproduces? Still not able to trigger the error.

CMS new post page
I've opened invites if you want to log in.

I've used the one-click-hugo-cms template and added this commit to use 1.8.1.

I'm able to update existing posts, but cannot create new posts.

I'm trying to get started with Netlify CMS, and I'm running into this error as well while using github backend.

Edit: Just tried downgrading to 1.8.0. After doing so, I am able to publish posts.

Also happening to mine(It didn't a few days ago). I'm using unpkg.com/netlify-cms@^1.0.0. The error happens when saving a new entry in editorial workflow, as well as when publishing.

[erquhart]

Working on this now.

[erquhart]

Fixed in 1.8.2. Can someone confirm and close?

[papandreou]

Was the new version published to npm? I don't see it:

$ npm info --json netlify-cms | jq -r '.["dist-tags"].latest'
1.8.1

The npm guys had an incident the other day that caused published packages to not be available immediately, could be that the problem is back: https://status.npmjs.org/incidents/3rjzvts6v98k

[tech4him1]

It is live on npmjs.com and unpkg.

[papandreou]

Ah, there is a new incident reported: https://status.npmjs.org/incidents/238t55n6f03f

[erquhart]

Whoops, accidental close.

I'm seeing it on unpkg now.

[papandreou]

Confirmed fixed (via unpkg)

[papandreou]

I wrote an email about the missing package to npm support.

[erquhart]

Awesome, thanks @papandreou.

[papandreou]

They wrote me back, and it's there now :tada:

[Jinksi]

All working 👏
