Elementor Not Loading – Troubleshooting Guide

If the Elementor editor keeps loading forever, shows a blank page, or you see a grey panel, follow these steps in order.

1. Check required plugins and versions #

1. Go to Plugins → Installed Plugins.
2. Make sure Elementor and Rakmyat Core are installed and active.
3. Update to the latest versions of:
   • WordPress
   • Elementor
   • Rakmyat theme and Rakmyat Core.

Outdated versions are a common reason for the editor not loading.

2. Increase PHP memory limit and server resources #

Elementor needs enough memory and execution time.

Ask your host or set these minimum values:

• PHP version: 7.4 or higher (8.0+ recommended).
• Memory limit: at least 256M (512M better).
• Max execution time: 300 seconds or more.

In wp-config.php you can add:

phpdefine( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M' );

Then refresh the Elementor editor page.

3. Disable conflicting plugins #

Many times another plugin conflicts with Elementor.

1. Go to Plugins → Installed Plugins.
2. Deactivate all plugins except:
   • Elementor
   • Elementor Pro (if used)
   • Rakmyat Core
3. Try to edit a page with Elementor:
   • If it works now, reactivate your other plugins one by one.
   • After each activation, test Elementor again until you find the plugin causing the issue.
4. Keep the conflicting plugin disabled or replace it with an alternative.

---

4. Switch to a default theme for testing #

If Elementor still does not load:

1. Go to Appearance → Themes.
2. Temporarily activate a default theme (for example Twenty Twenty‑Four).
3. Test Elementor again.

• If Elementor loads with the default theme, re‑activate Rakmyat and check that:
  • Child theme does not contain PHP errors in functions.php.
  • No custom code is breaking the editor.

---

5. Check browser and caching issues #

1. Clear your browser cache or use an incognito/private window.
2. Disable any browser extensions that might block scripts.
3. Clear any WordPress cache plugin (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, etc.).
4. If you use a CDN (Cloudflare), purge its cache.

Reload the Elementor editor after clearing caches.

---

6. Fix Elementor settings #

1. Go to Elementor → Settings → Advanced.
2. Try enabling Switch Editor Loader Method.
3. Save changes and test again.

Also check in Elementor → System Info that:

• Memory limit, post max size, and upload size are green or high enough.
• No red warnings about PHP or server settings.

---

7. Enable debug mode to see errors #

If the panel is still stuck:

1. In wp-config.php, enable debug logging:

phpdefine( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

2. Try to open the Elementor editor again.
3. Open wp-content/debug.log via FTP or File Manager.
4. Check the last lines for PHP errors related to a plugin, theme file, or server limit.

Fix or disable the component shown in the error, then set WP_DEBUG back to false for production.

8. When to contact support #

If you have:

• Updated everything,
• Increased memory and execution time,
• Disabled other plugins and caches,
• Tested with a default theme,

and Elementor still does not load, create a temporary admin account and send details plus your debug.log to support so they can check your specific installation.
