I've been trying to convert my site from using Layouts to using Blocks as there are a number of features in Blocks that i need - and initially this was a success. I created templates for my different cpt on some other websites running on the same multisite as this site as well as as similar a setup as possible (same child theme and plugins - with a few extra on the primary site - Buddypress and bbPress in the main)
However, over the last few days - I've found the process of creating these templates on Mud and Routes to be a 'painful' process as they were often failing to save, and often losing data in between these saves. I was getting issues such as invalid JSON errors. However, i was able to progress slowly.
Tonight - on creating the final cpt template - the issue has become impossible. I was able to perhaps do a single edit on a page, and then it may or may not save. The whole site would become unresponsive until i closed that template editor page - at which point the pages would load again.
I noticed that the CPU load on my server (a decent hosting package 8GB and currently my traffic is low in comparison to peak times in August) was stuck on 100%. I tried disabling all plugins that i could - this is a live site and income is important - and found the only effect was when i disabled blocks plugin on the Main Domain (it is still running on 7 or 8 sub-sites on the same install, which have roughly 20-30% of the traffic level of main site). So i tried repeating this step (including deactivating all toolset plugins and re-activating) - and when it was deactivated - CPU went down to 10-20% usage, and up to 90-100% when activated.
I've included one screenshot from now which shows some of the json issues in the console - I suggest you take a look at these templates that I've created for my post types directly.
I've also tried to change about every setting as well - no luck!
Any idea what could be causing this?
Just some extra info that may help this. I've inserted a fair bit of code from my old layouts into these templates which includes a few that include a number of conditionals. Nothing I'd consider complex - just if a custom field is empty, then populate it from alternative post.
The front end site still runs perfectly fast as I've a pretty speedy page cacheing plugin active - which is basically what's keeping the site running.
