Massive lag in block editor

Hi,

There is a massive lag while editing border radius in the block editor.

Tested with all kinds of browsers, newly installed Windows and Mac (Apple Silicon), no browser extensions.

Disabled all the plugins. But, still, the issue remains.

This reminded me Bricks Builder doesn’t keep the all property values toggle on.

For example, if I wanted to change the border radius, I can click to link all values, save. After re-selecting the element, then the toggle is off.

Hello,

Could you please record a video so we can better understand what you mean?

Kind Regards

Sure! Coming up.

Added screen record.

This happens very regularly and becomes impossible to work in the block editor, unless the page gets refreshed.

I couldn’t find a way to work with classes visually in the block editor. I’m assuming this feature isn’t available?

We can’t open the video and it requires username and password.

Hello,

We have temporarily disabled all plugins that are not related to our theme and installed the latest version of Gutenberg. Yes, it works a bit laggy but still usable and we don’t have any massive lags that require browser reload. Could you please check from your end?

Kind Regards

Will report back. Please check the private content.

I disabled all the plugins as well, but after a while it became unusable. Why do we need to install Gutenberg? Isn’t that already available in the WordPress core?

I tried other block plugins as well, but their styles are not loading on the front-end. So far, the only one that works is Stackable.

The lag is there and it is an issue. I hope it will be paid attention to and get a fix.

Thanks.

The Gutenberg plugin contains the latest version of the Gutenberg functionality, while the one included in the core is a bit outdated. Installing this plugin will not impact the website performance negatively.

The problem is that we still can’t see the problem you demonstrated on the video. The option works correctly but a bit laggy. But it doesn’t make the browser stack.

Kind Regards

Hello!
I have seen this problem too. It is solved by restarting the browser.
As a React JS developer, I can say that most likely there is a memory leak. I had the problem on 4-5 components of Products and long time edit.

Hello @norborov

Can you please create a separate topic and provide us with all the necessary information so we can check this on your website too?

Kind Regards

@norborov I agree. Experienced this with other builders before, and it was the JS framework. For example, Bricks Builder had to re-do some adjustments with Vue to resolve this issue.

But, of course, this might not be related at all.

As Artem agrees, there is a lag. But our experience looks like doesn’t convince them to take another look at how they engineered this part.

Here is a link about the issue. But, please keep in mind, I’m trying to give an example with the JS frameworks.

I would like to use other block plugins, like Generateblocks Pro. Class-based editing. Variables. Components.

But, the theme doesn’t function properly with other plugins.
