 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the great plugin.
 * Over the past few days, I have been seeing a new issue on my site. When the plugin
   is active, I cannot edit any posts or pages. When I click on a post of page, 
   I get back a blank page. I tried de-activating all the different modules, but
   it did not fix the issue; I even tried enabling the global plugin off switch 
   but it still did not fix the issue. The only thing that fixes the issue is disabling
   the plugin entirely.

 * is there any output to error logs? Have you tried disabling any other plugins
   to see if perhaps they’re conflicting with the plugin when it’s active?

 * There is no errors and nothing in the audit trail either.
 * I just found out this is a conflict with Yoast SEO plugin. When I disable Yoast
   the issue does not occur.
 * Thanks!

 * Is there no error log file in the wp-admin folder?
 * I’m honestly not sure what to suggest here. We don’t touch posts/pages explicitly,
   that’d be down to yoast. There must be some form of php errors output to somewhere.
 * Perhaps try this:
    [https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG](https://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG)
 * and see if you can find output somewhere, or maybe ask your host where it would
   be. Without it, I’ve nothing to go on to help you.

 * Thanks for your response Paul!
 * I do have more information! Below is what WordPress Debug is telling me.
    These
   do not get triggered if I disable Shield OR if I disable Yoast SEO so really 
   not sure what is going on but Visual Composer seems to be impacted when both 
   Shield and Yoast are turned on.

 * That’s interesting! It means it’s neither of the plugins in question 🙂
 * The problem is the JS Composer plugin.
 * Send this to the developer and he should be able to fix it I’d say.
