Updated to wordpress 5.3 and was getting ‘isSavingPost’ of null in my console error. […] Not sure if this is related to Yoast or any other plugin
I’ve tracked the error down to a plugin called Link Whisper. One of the scripts in the plugin (wp-content/plugins/link-whisper/js/wpil_admin.js) listens to data-related events in the editor and, whenever anything changes, it tries to call a WordPress API but fails in the process.
In this case, it seems that the Yoast plugin, as part of its normal operation, initiates an action which Link Whisper then reacts to. I’d try disabling Link Whisper rather than Yoast and see if that helps. If so, I would then suggest bringing up this issue with the maintainers of Link Whisper.
Yup! that was the cause of it. Thanks! I’ll reach out to the developer regarding this.
Theres issue with yoast and Link Whisper Plugin. I updated my site to new version of wordpress and noticed that Yoast Metadata Disappears.
Once I Deactive link whisper , Yoast metadata box appears…
