When guitar part has fret diagrams, all chord symbols are redirected to guitar
When I try and add a chord symbol to any of the instruments, it automatically redirects it and tries to replace the chord symbol over the guitar part while there are fret diagrams on the guitar part. This is preventing me from being able to add fret diagrams to my guitar part, because I want to still be able to work on other parts. Is this a bug from a recent update, or is it something that I can turn off?

And so, until the fix is applied for the next update, the solution is/would have been to first enter the chord symbols in all the desired staves, then, once that is done, add the fretboard diagrams to the guitar staff.
Edit: alternatively, on a case-by-case basis (or by staff, or selection etc.), you can literally 1) CUT the fret diagram 2) enter the chord symbol 3) PASTE the fret diagram to the original location.
