Prevent vim from autofolding when typing

Question

Every time i use snippets in vim while coding in Python i get a problem which i desire to get rid off. Here is the sequence of steps which leads to my problem:

1. type fun and hit Tab to trigger snippets of a new function
2. start typing to define its name.

On the last step i get all the body of my new function folded and i even don't see my cursor at the place i am currently typing.

Info:

• I am using python-mode plugin which defines foldingmethod here
• I am also using ultisnips and vim-snippets.
• Here is my vimrc, which contains nothing criminal as seems to me.

How could i fix such an issue?

Answer 1

I had a similar issue with PHP code completion. It would automatically fold anything above a return statement as I typed.

I likewise narrowed the issue to the YCM plugin; I disabled all other plugins and set YCM options to defaults.

The issue went away when I set foldmethod to manual in my vimrc:

set foldmethod=manual
