Yoast breaking visual editor

The category editor is still broken today at version 3.3.1. When you edit the category, the editor page is out of wack, the left WP menu is moved way down can only see the top of it, can’t edit the snippet etc..

I think someone reported this a while back, but they never paid attention to fix it.

Chrome and FF have the issue so I think it’s the jQuery as you mentioned. Also tested with anlther theme just in case, but same issue, deactivating Yoast, the problem goes away.

WP 4.5.2

I have also had the problem where visual editor screen appears just white, so we can’t edit the page/post content.
Just updated Yoast SEO to 3.3.1 (today’s update) and still having this problem.

Hopefully this can be fixed, as I’ve had to deactivate the plugin in order to edit pages. Thanks.

Just another update (I posted this in another thread but its been marked as resolved so reposting here):

Updated 3.3.1 and still got the white screen in the Visual editor. So I clicked on the Text tab to switch to Text editor (just wanted to see that the content was still there) and then back to Visual and the content is now displaying.

But this needs to be done every time I go in to edit a page or post – the Visual editor content is not displaying automatically. When I deactivated the plugin, it does display automatically.

Hi there,

I have the same problem. After the latest update my visual editor of the website is not working. The error log says that the Yoast plugin caused some errors.

Also, few things have been stuck, like loading the gallery and from time to time publishing the pages. I always have to refresh and most of the time loose my work.

If I disable plugin everything is working fine.

Can someone help please? It makes the website almost inaccessible to work with.

Thank you,

Joanna

I think this issue was reported a while ago and they know about it. Why ignoring it is unknown and judging from their other threads, they probably will never answer here.

Come to think of it, I can do without Yoast, most of what they offer is either cosmetic or convenient, with a bit of custom code in a theme that already is SEO ready like Genesis, who needs Yoast anyway.

FYI @all there is recognition and actual discussion about this issue on their GitHub repo.

I image this forum is not a great tool for tracking issues
