Same error occurs no matter which editor is used.

@b10tds I'm confused because on a Joomla 4 "default vanilla installation" there is no "default image module from the home page". What kind of module is it? Have you created it, or have you installed some kind of sample data after the installation? Please report back all details we need to reproduce the issue.
My apologies, yes I used the "add sample data" option in the admin CP after the install so there was some content to see how it worked.
Blog sample.
Yes
What do you call the default image module from the home page ?
Please add a screenshot
I see now which module is concerned.
No issue here:
I can't reproduce either, same module as shown by @infograf768 .
Okay thanks, I have just installed 4.0.0-beta1-dev version and tested that and it is not doing it, however this may be related to the change in PHP version required for this beta1-dev version to install from 7.2 to 7.3 to run.
