Solutions of problems caused by the Pro installation

The developers of the Elementor plugin affirm that after updating to the Pro version, you can continue customizing your website without any difficulties. Elementor Pro is not a separate plugin it is a paid extension of Elementor, so choosing the version doesn’t influence your working process.

But recently, users more and more began to face the malfunctions in the templates caused by the installation of a paid version of the Elementor WordPress plugin. Here are some bugs we have met and want to share with you their solutions.

These problems caused due to the fact that Elementor Pro templates have a higher priority than the other additional plugins for Elementor builder, like Jet plugins, etc.

So, if you have lost the menu and it isn’t displayed on your web page, but after deactivating the Pro version it appears again. This means that this menu does not exist in the Elementor header template. That is why you need to add it manually.

In the same way, JetWooBuilder templates and the layouts of product pages can be broken. In this case, you must either edit the elementor template or delete it.

If after installing Elementor Pro and while editing the Elementor templates you meet with such error as:

“Sorry, the content area was not found in your page. You must call the_content function in the current template, in order for Elementor to work on this page.”

And popup like this one appears in your working space:

To solve this problem, you have to go to the “Settings” and give priority to the Elementor Pro templates. In the “Location relations” section choose the “Pro Overrides”.

If there are such problems that you can not solve by yourself, there is also an opportunity to write to the Elementor support. After buying premium version you automatically get access to their support system and the specialists should determine all problems you have with Elementor Pro.
