mkdocs build fails with "full_load() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given" error

[DawMatt]

Now that I've installed the plugin and enabled it in the mkdocs.yml file, mkdocs build no longer works.

The error being returned is: TypeError: full_load() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

I'm running Python 3.7 on a Windows 10 system (x64, but 32 bit Python). Any suggestions on how I can work around this?

Thanks, Matt

Sorry. Turned out to be an issue unrelated to the plugin.

@DawMatt Could you please share your solution? I am getting the same error.

For me it seems like GTK3 caused the error, I needed to restart the Shell I used on Windows after I installed GTK3 to reload PATH.
