RECOMMENDATIONS:
Custom theme: for cosmetic issues, please first try updating your theme to latest. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community theme and snippets.
Community plugins: for bugs, please first try updating all your plugins to latest. If still not fixed, please try to make the issue happen in the Sandbox Vault or disable community plugins.

When you made this bug report, there was a template, and it said:

Please also try your repro steps with third-party plugins and custom CSS disabled and see if it’s still reproducible. If it’s an issue with third-party plugins or themes, try contacting the author for help.

Have you tried that yet? You’re running a lot of plugins. And it could very well be one of them causing the trouble.

Yeah, probably community plug-ins, especially dataview. I open a file with a lot of embedded Dataview pages and it takes awhile to load the page. Before the page is fully loaded, I immediately switch to a new page, rendering that new page blank.

  • Temporary solution: command E to switch back & forth between edit mode & read mode.
