Hello! I am veyr new to wordpress and elementor. I have the free version of elementor.

I am trying to make a webpage for my employer and if he would know what I have managed to come up with in two days he would propably sack me 😃

Anyways. First I had issues with getting the backround image to be full width. I changed the layout to elementor full width.

Then I had trouble with getting my header visible. It showed the header only on the pages I had NOT edited with elementor. This was fixed when I changed the layout to theme (I use twenty twenty five).

But now there is a blank white space between the header and hero. There should be no other containers above hero and no spacings or margins.

I have tried to check the spacings and margins in elementor, appearance -> editor -> templates and appearance -> theme.

I am very confused on what should you edit and where, and how to get the blank space away.

I am experiencing a persistent issue where my WordPress homepage loads normally on the live site, but disappears or becomes blank when I attempt to edit it with Elementor. Despite deactivating all third-party plugins, clearing caches, and regenerating files, the editor still presents a gray screen with JavaScript console errors related to authentication scripts. I have also confirmed our PHP configuration, including the memory limit and the mbstring extension, and tried different browsers and Elementor's Safe Mode, all without success. Please let me know how we can resolve this script conflict."

Hi everyone,

I am having continual problems with elementor popups not displaying well and I would appreciate any advice!

I have a call to action with a button linked to an Elementor popup. The popup is linked to a contact form prepared using WPForms. The popup works fine in Brave browser (although not in Brave incognito mode). In Chrome, Safari, and other browsers, the button linked to the popup is not active. In the popup settings in Elementor, I have the settings display on entire site, on-click trigger, and show on all browsers activated. I have never had this working well and clearing caches, deactivating plugins etc. did not help. I am running the latest version of WP (7.0) and Elementor 4.0.9.

The problem is with the Download Now buttons on the following page:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My Wordpress Site Health alerted me to the fact one of my live sites is running PHP 8.1 and needs to be updated since it's nearing end-of-life support. On the back-end I see that I can choose 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4. (ChatGPT recommends 8.3)

Anyone have any issues with Elementor (free) or Elementor-related plugins after upgrading PHP?

Some context: I launched a plugin a few weeks ago called Pro Effects (one-click GSAP animations for Elementor). It's at 30 paying subscribers and growing, so I'm starting to think about what to build next instead of just adding more animations.

The idea I keep coming back to is a direct WordPress to Claude Code integration that works as an assistant inside the admin. v1 would handle things like:

- Managing pages, posts and media through prompts

- WooCommerce operations (products, orders, inventory)

- Scheduled tasks, e.g. "raise prices 15% on Dec 1, roll back on Dec 26"

v2 would let it generate custom plugins and themes from a prompt.

Before I sink months into this, I want a reality check from people who actually live in WP every day:

1. Is this solving a real pain or am I inventing one?

2. What would you NOT trust an AI to touch in your WP install?

3. If you'd use it, what's the first thing you'd throw at it?

Not dropping a link, just want honest takes. Roast it if you have to.

Just a quick info since I've upgraded 3 clients already: no issues so far with Elementor (free) and WordPress 7. Everything runs smoothly. Using other plugins like CF7, SCF, Polylang, SEO Framework, UAE, WP Statistic and a few custom plugins.

Hope everyone else is having a smooth update week 😄

I run a company where most of our SKUs are out of stock due to turnover. Because of this, we hide out of stock items and that works great.

However, sometimes on a landing page or something i want to show a grid of products in a category, but i want the users to see what is in stock and what is out of stock instead of just showing what is in-stock.

Is there a way to force elementor to display out of stock items in a product widget without changing the woocommerce site-wide setting?

Thanks!

I am a bit annoyed about how much Elementor tries to shove their upsells not only into my face - but also into my customers faces when they edit pages with Elementor.

Here is a code snippet to make it a bit nicer.
You can add it to a code snippets plugin as a PHP snippet.

add_action( 'elementor/editor/footer', function() {
    echo '<style>
        #e-notice-bar, /* nags when license is about to expire */
        #elementor-panel-elements-notice-area,
        #elementor-panel__editor__help, /* help button */
        button.MuiIconButton-root[aria-label="What\'s New"], /* whats new button */
#elementor-panel-category-custom-widgets, /* Create custom widgets with Angie */
.e-ai-button, /* pink notice above editor */
button.MuiButtonBase-root[aria-label="Angie"] /* Angie button upper left */
{ display: none !important; }
    </style>';

Occasionally I need to quickly switch between multiple pages/posts. There is the "Recent used" list at the top and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>e</kbd> to find other pages/posts but normally takes a while. Is there a faster way? Or a list of all the content in Elementor?

Hi all

A quick scan from HostedScan showed that Elementor is using an outdated swiper js library in the Image Carousel plugin.

https://www.sentinelone.com/vulnerability-database/cve-2026-27212/

Is there any plan to update this library to something newer? Latest version is v12.1.4, the one that Elementor is delivering is 4 years old.

Elementor is used in a lot of paid instances, so they should put the required resources to update that library and make sure no vulnerabilities exist in their official plugins set.

Hello! I need some help with finding where the gear icon is located, it was on the top bar menu in the middle somewhere, next to the responsive menu icons. Recently started a project using Elementor pro and these days it takes so much time to find simple tools that are with changed locations. All the YouTube videos and AI answers can't locate them. Now if I have to hide the name of the page will have to do it via the wordpress menu, which is the optional solution I guess if I can't via Elementor.

In freelance projects, do you usually access and use the client’s Elementor Pro license/plan? For example, if the client doesn’t have the Pro version, do you work only with the free features, or do you purchase/use your own Pro license for the project?

I have a carousel module on my Elementor Pro site. in the back-end it looks okayish, but when I check the preview you can see something is NOT rendering correctly. Any ideas?

It is locally hosted with Local. I doubt that is making an impact, but just so you know.

The version of my cpanel has been updated, and now I can't save my Elementor projects/edits, I get a message: "server error 413 request entity too large." Any solution?
