thx for confirming.

i know u mean well but i mentioned i was using elementor and that “i’m using filebird free version; will filebird pro take me to the exact pic in it’s folder?”

not sure how to upload an image off my local; i created 2 pics that tells the story

pic 1: in Elementor, i click on an existing image, then Edit Image opens [left margin], then click “Choose Image”.
pic 2: Insert Media box is open; i have a gallery of 800+ images with the newest uploaded pic first; there’s no information under Attachment Details [right margin].

@firecastdan: yoast plugin support will want you to “create a separate [new] topic for the issue you are experiencing.”
personally, i suspected that new push would resolve (an update by yoast seo or other plugin), and i don’t have the pressure of keeping a commercial site operational.
AS OF NOW: i don’t know how but i no longer have the “The editor has encountered an unexpected error” error.
installing Classic Editor made the latter error go away immediately but i didn’t have the yoast seo functions (focus keyphrase, seo title, meta descrip, readability for my Pages; i don’t use Posts).
then i logged in yesterday, and yoast functionality is back to normal.
over the last week four plugins updated: yoast, UpdraftPlus, elementor, and my theme (oceanwp).
over the last few years i no longer see or hear the word, ‘bug.’ if SW, then bug…. very simple….
good luck.

understood Ma’am. for retarded people like me it’s the fear of the cascading affects. change “A” only to find “B” & “C” went screwy (eg, changing themes).
i do sincerely understand your point. my lay approach is to deactivate the turd (technical speak for us californians) and keep it movin’.
yoast makes a great product — i like the interface more than MR (i think). but compatibility is stability and all that equates to time … which i (?we) ain’t none of ??
love/peace — i’m sure the issue will resolve in ur next push.

roger that devnihil. u didn’t recommend to @luvtoread25 to deactivate Yoast SEO instead of perform 30,000 other tasks.
personally, i eliminate the 1 thing causing a glitch & move on.
(the Yoast Eye icon don’t integrate with Elementor and now, the subject Unexpected Error doesn’t allow me to fine-tune my SEO using Yoast.) get ur programmers movin! ??

i had exact same error:
“The editor has encountered an unexpected error.
TypeError: Cannot read property ‘SnippetEditor’ of undefined.”

i deactivated Code Snippets. no change.
i deactivated Yoast SEO. i gained access to the editor page. resolved.
i REactivated Yoast SEO. got same error.
“The editor has encountered an unexpected error.
TypeError: Cannot read property ‘SnippetEditor’ of undefined.”

*** i used a handful of very standard plugins and OceanWP theme. auto-updates on everything.

no sure who or what the culprit is but the instability of the WP environment is a bit annoying. overall, WP sure beats hammering out the code i used to write (and never got DIVs & pics quite in the right spot!). ??

thx Suwash Kunwar. i didn’t see your response til this post was closed. smart workaround.
the issue sorta leads to another question (objectively and not sarcastically): how can Yoast speak to SEO analysis & Readability if Yoast has no way of (or, limits to) interacting with the modules/blocks in the Elementor builder.
so maybe it’s the Yoast highlighting feature, and only the highlighting feature, that cannot interact with Elementor modules/blocks. still, start coding ya’ll and plz resolve. it would take Yoast to another level (with us elementor hacks ;).

this is marked Resolved (devnihil (@devnihil), 9 months, 2 weeks ago [as of 2/18/2021]) so i’ll open-up the question again with the title, “Yoast SEO Readability Eye Icon Does Not Highlight Text”
the eye appears to be a powerful feature.
one thought is: how accurate is yoast if it’s not ??fully?? connected to the webpage content it’s reading.

thank you Abhishek

thx for the breadcrumb.

how do you recommend i double check?

my theme & 14 pluggins are super standard. but i see your point.
can’t i drag/drop media into the backend folder, then find it in the front-end (at the same size….).
