error Title field is required

I get the same error for yoast_seo version “2.0.0-alpha3" on Drupal version 8.5.8

When I create new content I get validation error messages for all the required fields I have filled in. It looks like a loop that runs through the fields.
This happens although the fields are filled in correctly and the content is saved.
It is only for creating new content, not editing. This has happened on two different sites for me.

This is fixed in the dev version

Hi, I am using 2.0.0-alpha3 to solve the problem described here https://www.drupal.org/project/yoast_seo/issues/2843302,
so thats why I am not using the dev version.

Hi, I am using 2.0.0-alpha3 to solve the problem described here https://www.drupal.org/project/yoast_seo/issues/2843302.
I need the analysis method that requires no specific fields to be present, so thats why I am not using the dev version.

I am now using version “2.x-dev#9fb7e37" but when creating new content I still get validation error messages for all mandatory fields when the content has been saved.

The problem is the line this.$form.find('.yoast-seo-preview-submit-button').mousedown(); in yoast_seo.js.
It submits the whole form (not only the yoast part) with the empty required fields when the form loads, and then these error messages are shown after saving.

So I found my problem now, which was on our end in a custom module. Yoast is calling the preview function on the node that I was creating and in some custom code there was a call to `$entity->toUrl()->toString()` which will throw an exception when the node isn’t actually created yet. So now I’m catching the exception and it works.

Hi, I'm having the same issue, I tried @SaraKlasson solution but had no success.

Thanks for pinning down the issue Sara, that sounds like it should be fixed with #3110455: Metatags depending on URL cause errors for unsaved entities after updating to Drupal 8.8.0

I am having the same issue, however, it seems adding '#limit_validation_errors' => [], into src/Form/AnalysisFormHandler.php:129 as:

    $element['yoast_seo_preview_button'] = [
      '#type' => 'button',
      '#value' => t('Seo preview'),
      '#limit_validation_errors' => [],
      '#attributes' => [
        'class' => ['yoast-seo-preview-submit-button'],
        // Inline styles are bad but we can't reliably use class order here.
        'style' => 'display: none',
      ],
      '#ajax' => [
        'callback' => [$this, 'analysisSubmitAjax'],
      ],
    ];

Solved the issue.

I can confirm the bug is still present (for example when uploading an image in the node edition form) and the last patch yoast_seo-3010164-12.patch needs to be applied to solve it.
