r/elementor

Hello, how is everyone doing? I came for some advice: My client keeps asking me about the website carrusel since in his devices, it stops on the second image. I managed to find a computer where I could see the issue (a netbook with Windows 10 I believe, while I work on a Macbook with Monterey in which the problem doesn't show).

I tried putting No on the stopping on cursor/interaction, cleared the cache, stoped all the other plugins in Wordpress, and deleting it to create a new one, but the problem persist.

Here is the website: caleta-olivia.com.ar

Is there a specific problem that can be targeted?
Has anyone had this problem before and found a solution?

Thank you!

Hey guys, I'm new to Elementor and everything's been okay so far except one basic thing.

I was recently trying to practice creating a webpage and when I drop in an image, as soon as I close the side panel the image is off center.

Also Elementor won't let me put elements under another element only on the side.

Has anyone else run into this problem? For context I used Blocksy as a theme builder if it's of any relevance, and I'm using Elementors free plan.

Hours and hours and hours of troubleshooting on this one. Tech support gives the same answers over and over even though I prove their suggestions wrong over and over. Does anyone else have a fix for this? Randomly it just won't load the Elementor layout etc. just text like this. Not Atomic. All updates done. No plugins enabled other than Elementor and Elementor Pro. No server caching. Happens on different computers, with different browsers, on different networks. This happens on multiple sites, not just this one. I have even tried moving the site to a different host, including Elementor Hosting, with the exact same issue. I can recreate reliably by clearing the Elementor Cache > Clear Files & Data, then opening the site in Incognito and clicking through the pages until it breaks. Sometimes it takes a few tries. If you refresh, it loads properly. Trying not to have a stroke.

FIXED: Claude help find the fix, so this is Claude's description of the issue and fix: Both the broken and working pages included WordPress Core's native Speculative Loading feature (<script type="speculationrules">, introduced in WP 6.8), configured to prefetch all internal links. This causes the browser to speculatively preload a page in the background as a user interacts with a link. Dropdown/submenu links require sustained hovering to reveal before they can be clicked, making them especially likely to trigger this browser-native prefetch behavior ahead of the actual click. Our working theory: the prefetched/activated page occasionally gets swapped into the visible tab before Elementor's front-end JS has finished applying widget-level styling/initialization, resulting in an unstyled page — even though every underlying network request completed successfully.

Resolution: Disabled WordPress Core's Speculative Loading feature via the officially documented filter, placed in the site's child theme functions.php:

phpadd_filter( 'wp_speculation_rules_configuration', '__return_null' );

Since applying this fix, we have been unable to reproduce the issue through our previous reproduction method (repeated navigation via dropdown menu links, Edge Incognito). We applied this fix to the other site where we could regularly recreate this issue and that site is working properly as well. 

Instead of focusing on their core product, fixing bugs, improving their offering in such a competitive landscape, they launch a separate AI builder… what an insult.

Why?

I'm building a portfolio section for my agency website and considering whether I should feature this project, as I'm thinking of embracing the Digital Product Launches niche.

I've been experimenting with some concepts and tools to improve my workflow, and came up with this design. I'd appreciate any kind of feedback it would get from some fellow web designers, focusing on the design itself.

The hero section image approach intrigues me, if you can also spare some suggestions on how you'd handle it, I'll really appreciate it too!

The hero section man looks like a midget at this screen size wtf*

TL;DR:
How do I create a “mobile phone” shape in Elementor?
How do I place that shape at the background of all other elements?
How do I get that shape to be my current background image?
How do I get that shape to always be the full background on any mobile phone, but showing a solid color surrounding it on desktop? (See last image for photoshop end result example)

For the last few days I have been trying to setup and design my own Linktree-like webpage on my own domain.
The result of that can be seen above, which is already way better than the actual Linktree page ever was.
The only thing I do like about the original Linktree page, is that on the desktop version it has this “mobile phone” shape in the center of the screen, with a solid color surrounding it. On a mobile phone, this “shape” is always the full background image. Since my webpage is only a linking page, mostly catered to mobile phone users, I’d like to copy that behaviour.
How do I accomplish that? I want the purple/pink background that I’m currently using to be the background within this “phone” shape, so that it will always show that background on every mobile phone screen, but whenever someone looks at my page on desktop, it will have a solid color surrounding that shape (which I assume also mitigates any risk of the image not being large enough for large monitors). See laste image for a photoshop result example.

Sad news. After being 100% loyal to Elementor for 9 years, it really feels like the company has totally lost its direction.

Now there's even a separate AI tool called Sticklight? (https://sticklight.com/) I'm honestly exhausted by it all!

What happened to building great products? Not everyone wants AI integrated into every single workflow. I feel alone as I still like to manually design and develop websites.

Can someone tell why this HTML that I pasted into the HTML widget in WP Forms is displaying so big? I used the exact same code in a similar Elementor site using essentially the same form, and it displayed normally.

<p>Remember to ask a teacher or counselor to complete and submit a recommendation form, a requirement for your scholarship application. You can find the recommendation form <a href="https://piboulefoundation.org/recommendation/">here</a>.</p>

I also attached a picture of the next-to-last two pages of the form side by side. The last page overflowed, but you get the drift

Thanks to those who know more than me,

Hello!

First time poster, sorry if there are any issues with my post.

I have to make a website for a class using Elementor and I've run into the problem i mentioned in the title.

The main differences are:

• The text fonts and colors are different, making a lot of the text unreadable.
• The rounded corners in the photos are not present.
• The general sizing and layout of the items is different.
• Not shown in the photos, but there's a video at the end to which i applied a customized shape mask, but in the preview the video is just a normal rectangle.

I've tried to do some of the common recommendations like clearing the Elementor caché. I've also changed the template to "Elementor Canvas" on the regular Wordpress editor, which helped greatly (it looked infinitely worse before) but didn't fully resolve the issue, as you can see.

In case it's relevant: these are the plugins i have installed:

1. Elementor, obviously
2. ProElements
3. Ultimate post kit
4. Ultimate Addons for Elementor
5. Starter Templates
6. Easy Watermark
7. Custom fonts (I did download and install some fonts from Dafont, could this be part of the issue?)

The first 3 i was told to install by my professor, the others i installed on my own as needed. I don't know if any of these are known for causing trouble.

I was told maybe I should deactivate the plugins and see what happens, but I'm worried that would undo some of the stuff I've gotten done.

Any help would be appreciated as my professor is not responding to my emails and I'm a little desperate haha.
