 * Hi,
    I have recently installed Autoptimize and Async on my website.
 * Everything looks fine in the live site but I am experiencing issues on the backend.
 * I know that Autoptimize doesn’t optimize the backend. However, after installing
   the plugins I have the Yoast box that looks empty (therefore I cannot edit meta-
   tag) and Gutenberg doesn’t work anymore (posts can only be edited with classic
   editore and I do not even have the option to switch to block editor.)
 * Everything happened after installing the plugins.
 * I have already tried to deactivate both plugins but the problem still persist.
   Installing the 2 plugins is the only change I had during the last few days.
 * What could be the problem?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-with-backend%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * have absolutely no idea jonnylco; as you wrote AO & AsyncJS don’t optimize the
   backends. the fact the problem persists when both plugins are disabled confirms
   the problem is elsewhere. have a look at the browser console for JS errors maybe?
