KINDLY READ AND ACT ON THE BELOW INFORMATION BEFORE FILING YOUR ISSUE!

Please go to our Zenbot subreddit for questions, help and support:

If you open a GitHub issue, here is our policy:

1. It must be a bug or a feature request.
2. The form below must be filled out.

Here's why we have that policy: Zenbot developers respond to issues. We want to focus on work that benefits the whole community, e.g., fixing bugs and adding features. Support only helps individuals and rarely leads to bugfixes or useful enhancements. GitHub also notifies hundreds of people when issues are filed. We want them to see you communicating an interesting problem, rather than being redirected to Reddit.

Yes can conform this, same issue.

[LuisAlejandro]

Downgrade the webpack and webpack-cli (package.json) to these versions:

    "webpack": "^4.5.0",
    "webpack-cli": "^3.0.4",

They have been bumping the versions but not updating the codebase.
