If you get a blank page or also known as the white screen of death when you try to edit with Elementor<\/a>, it might be due to a lack of memory or a plugin compatibility issue. First, will make sure you have assigned enough memory to WordPress. So let’s go do that now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Login Via FTP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Login to your favourite FTP client, FileZilla<\/a> is mine, then locate the wp-config.php file and open it.
Now place the following code in to your wp-config file and save the file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M' );<\/code>\t\t<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"memory<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the line is already present in the file, you can edit the value in the quotes and set it to its desired value. You may have the value too low. If your memory limit, normally controlled via your web host, is less than 64 MB, then you’re more than likely to come across a “Memory exhausted<\/a>” error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Advanced Settings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The white screen of death can be due also to the way Elementor is loaded, so if the previous troubleshooting procedure did not help, try the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Go to Elementor > Settings > Advanced<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Select switch editor loader to Enable<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Save changes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"editor<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    <\/p>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Make sure that the Site Address (URL) is the same as the WordPress Address (URL) These URLs can be checked in WordPress ‘Settings > General’
      <\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • If you are using both the free version of Elementor and Elementor Pro, make sure the versions are compatible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n
      Not Fixed?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      If you\u2019re still having issues, then it’s time to deactivate each plugin (one by one) as you deactivate each plugin check to see if the issue is fixed, if not, deactivate another plugin, until the issue resolves, keep repeating this process until all plugins (except Elementor plugin) has been disabled, then re-enable each one. You will then find which plugin is the culprit.

      DO NOT<\/strong> disable\/de-activate the Elementor plugin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
