Text Editor Keeps Hanging During Writing New Article

[paromitadas]

The Text Editor keeps hanging as we compose a new article. When We try to Submit or Update a new article the Publish / Update button is disabled for quite some time. The Autosave mode is constantly on and that does not help a lot when writing new article. It nigher saves nor let the writer save.

PS : The Classic Code Editor of Previous Version was Much better than the New One .

Welcome to trac and thanks for reporting.

Have you tried on a fresh WordPress install with a bundled theme like twentyseventeenactivated?

Does this mean Auto Save is not at all saving your post content in draft?

The Classic Code Editor of Previous Version was Much better than the New One

Gutenberg is in active development and many changes and updates are going on regularly. On the contrary Classic Editor is something we all are very acquainted with. The Classic Editor plugin is still available so that in case we have issues which can lead to a roadblock, we are good to go with the Classic one.

If testing on a fresh install is difficult, can you please try once more by deactivating all your plugins? If the problem is gone, then start activating back your existing plugin one by one. This way you would know if any of your plugin is causing this.

By the way, I personally never encountered this issue. So I have a feeling that the theme or any of your active plugins might be responsible.

• Which version of WordPress are you running?
• Have you tried with no plugins active?
• Are you seeing any errors in your PHP error logs?
