CKEditorError: view-position-before-root: You can not make position before root.

This error has occurred a couple times now when setting data from firebase.

The error seems to occur when the article is high in formulas created with the MathType plugin.
But this is not the case every time, sometimes setting data with only 1 formula will trigger the error to.

The documentation doesn't say a lot on how to fix or prevent this error, I was hoping you guys could give a bit more guidance in how to handle this error.

It is a bit annoying because now if the client as this error we have to go into the database and remove snippets manually...

I would love some guidance on this error

This issue does still occur here and there. Still have no idea how to fix it...

This is most likely a bug in MathType plugin. The team behind is working on doing some architectural changes to resolve this and similar issues.

Hi, sorry for the way too long delay. We're looking back on some old issues we never managed to tackle.

I tried to see the error in the demo but the formulas seem to be introduced by MathJax and not by MathType.

@mstermaaten, could you please confirm whether this issue still happens with the latest version of MathType (7.24.1)?
