Gutenberg: Browser gets frozen after pressing ENTER button

Created on 21 Nov 2018  路  7Comments  路  Source: WordPress/gutenberg

Describe the bug
I updated the last version of Gutenberg (4.5.0) this morning (10:00 am GMT +7). After updating, I try to write a post, it gets frozen when I press ENTER button to create next paragraph. Moreover, when I open the posted article and click to a paragraph to edit, then I can't click to another or the title again. Please check it and let me know if it not a bug (First, I think it's my computer problem but it was normal if I use Classic Editor or the old version of Gutenberg).

To Reproduce

  1. Click 'Add new' to create a post
  2. Write something in paragraph
  3. Press 'Enter'
  4. The browser's tab is frozen after 2 secs.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 8.1
  • Browser: Coc coc (Vietnamese's browser which is built on Chrome platform)
  • Version: 75.4.124 (32 bit)

I'm having the same problem! I can't create or edit posts and pages because the browser gets frozen.

Seems like it's not my own problem. Hope they can find the way to fix it soon.

Is a React/JS problem. Results from console:

Do you have any plugin installed with Gutenberg support like Yoast for instance? Can you try to disable them to see if there's a conflict.

Error message from the shared url for reference:

Maximum update depth exceeded. This can happen when a component repeatedly calls setState inside componentWillUpdate or componentDidUpdate. React limits the number of nested updates to prevent infinite loops.

@youknowriad You right! The problem is Yoast SEO plugin.
