Working with the Elementor plugin for WordPress can sometimes encounter problems. A common issue is when the changes you make in the editor do not appear on the actual page of the site. Let’s look at how to solve this problem.
What to do if changes made in the Elementor editor are not visible on the site? Possible Solutions
Clearing Browser and Plugin Cache
One of the most common reasons for this problem is caching.
- Browser: Try clearing your browser’s cache. In most browsers, this can be done in the “Browsing History” or “Settings” section.
- Plugins: If you use caching plugins on your WordPress site, such as W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache, make sure you have cleared the cache after making changes in Elementor.
Checking CSS Settings
In the “Settings > Advanced” section of Elementor, make sure the options for optimized DOM output, improved asset loading, and enhanced CSS loading are enabled. This can help solve the problem.
Recreating the CSS File
The option to recreate the CSS file will delete the existing CSS file on your server and generate a new CSS file. This ensures that the latest changes you’ve made using the Elementor page builder are displayed. To recreate the CSS file, go to “Elementor > Tools”.
Click on the “Regenerate Files and Data” option, then click the blue “Save Changes” button.
Checking Hosting
Some hostings use their caching systems. If you are sure that the problem is not in your browser or plugins, contact your hosting provider’s support service to clear the cache.
Plugin Conflict
Other plugins can interfere with the normal operation of Elementor. To check:
- Deactivate all plugins except Elementor.
- Check if the problem is resolved.
- Activate the plugins one by one, checking after which plugin the problem returns.
This way, you can determine which plugin conflicts with Elementor.
Updating to the Latest Version
Make sure you have the latest version of Elementor installed. Updates often contain fixes for various bugs.
Increasing WordPress Memory Limit
A lack of memory can lead to display errors. Try increasing the WordPress memory limit by adding the following code to your wp-config.php file:
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’);
Elementor Support Service
If all the above methods did not help, I recommend seeking help from specialists or the official Elementor support service.
