[Resolved] Beaver Builder not loading for front page

[Dustin]

These 2 errors show up multiple times since the problem started:

[06-Sep-2020 18:56:38 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 2 in /home/vanislewebsites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bb-plugin/classes/class-fl-builder.php on line 1706

I guess it’s more of a Beaver Builder issue? It’s weird that it only comes into play when the GeneratePress theme is active.

[Tom]

Just to confirm, you’re using the latest version of Beaver Builder?

[Dustin]

Yup. Beaver Builder Standard, 2.4.0.2, the current version released on their website, and no updated versions I can see offered anywhere.

[Tom]

I just looked at those lines that the errors are mentioning and I’m not seeing any relation to the theme itself. I would say it would be best to contact their support, but since the issue doesn’t happen when you deactivate the theme, they will likely send you back to us, unfortunately.

If you try to do edit the page before doing a site import, does the same issue happen?

[Dustin]

Looks like removing the site import, and just having the base GeneratePress theme removes the issue. Tried applying a different site from the site library, and then same issue again.

[Tom]

Did the different site use GenerateBlocks as well?

[Dustin]

Yes it does. Tried disabling the GenerateBlocks plugin…still the same issue.

[Tom]

If you import a non-GenerateBlocks site, does the issue happen?

I’m assuming something about how GenerateBlocks enqueues its styles is conflicting with whatever Beaver Builder is doing on those lines (it’s something weird with enqueued styles/scripts).

What if you disable Beaver Builder, then import a site, then activate it?

[Dustin]

Tried Marketer from the site library, that doesn’t use GenerateBlocks, set a page a static front page, and again same issue.

I removed the site library, deleted all of the related GeneratePress plugins, de-activated Beaver Builder plug-in, applied a site template from the library that uses GenerateBlocks, activated Beaver Builder plug-in…same issue.

[Tom]

Does it happen with the free Beaver Builder?

Any chance you can provide temporary login details in the private information area so I can take a closer look?

[Dustin]

Thanks Tom, I’ve included temp login info below

[Dustin]

If using the lite version instead, the issue is resolved. Then switching back to the standard version, the issue re-appears.

[Tom]

So here’s what I just did on my localhost:

1. Install Beaver Builder, kept it deactivated.
2. Imported Marketer
3. Set a static front page
4. Activated Beaver Builder

I’m able to edit the front page with no issues.

I wonder if something became corrupted in your database. Is it a fresh install with demo content only? If so, can you try resetting it with this plugin?: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-reset/

[Dustin]

Man this is a rough one. Tried the wp-reset, plugin, installed GeneratePress, installed GP Premium, imported marketer, set a static front page, installed and activated Beaver Builder – same problem.

I even totally deleted my WordPress install, reinstalled wordpress, and followed the above and same issue.

Could it possibly be some server settings? This is so very weird because Beaver Builder and GeneratePress with ‘Service’ imported worked earlier this week. Tried different browsers, removed browser cache.
