Elementor is an intuitive page builder that makes website customization quick and simple, with hundreds of templates to help you design something truly personal and bespoke to you. Plus, this builder comes packed with advanced features designed to speed up and streamline web design experiences faster and easier – but sometimes errors arise that impede work such as getting stuck when the builder loads – this can be especially frustrating while you’re trying to design your site! In this article, we offer several steps you can follow to address these issues quickly.
This issue could be caused by plugins and themes not compatible with your builder, in which case updating them should fix the issue; otherwise try disabling plugins as an additional measure if problems still arise. Ultimately, switching hosting providers might also help ensure your website runs smoothly without experiencing performance issues with its page builder.
Problems could also arise due to security plugins or server firewalls interfering with Elementor’s loading process. You should temporarily disable all security plugins or firewalls to see if that solves the issue; otherwise consider alternative solutions which don’t interfere with Elementor.
Another potential cause may be incompatibility between Elementor and your PHP installation, so check that both are up-to-date and that enough server memory exists for running the builder. If using shared hosting, ask your hosting provider for an upgrade in PHP version or increasing memory limits in your hosting account.
To rule out add-ons or cache issues as the cause, open an incognito window in Chrome browser and visit your website before editing in it. If the issue is caused by an add-on or browser, a “Debug” icon will appear at the top of your window to help debug and identify what is causing the issue quickly and efficiently. This allows you to debug your site quickly in order to solve it more efficiently. If the issue lies outside an extension or browser, Elementor allows for continued work without interruption. Furthermore, you can save revisions of your design to restore earlier versions and backtrack – something not available with WPBakery Page Builder or Divi Builder.
