Hi,

Have you tried testing it on WordPress default themes? (ex. twenty twenty theme)

Does the same issue occur after changing theme? Let us know.

Hi Elvin,

Can you try disabling all plugins except Elementor & GP Premium? To check for any possible plugin conflict.

Let us know.

Hi there,

things to check for:

1. Dashboard > Tools > Site Health – check to see if there any warnings – such as Out of Date PHP.
2. Site Health > Info > Server – check your server setup such as PHP Memory limit, if you have a lot of plugins + elementor i would recommend a minomum of 768mg memory limit.
3. Have you any GP related custom functions ? Or made any edits to the GP Themes templates / functions ?

I have changed the memory size of php. Please check screenshot:

What happens if you deactivate GP Premium ? Does the editor work then ?

Yes, But still not working

Have there been any modifications made to the base Theme files ?

So i done some inspecting inside the Editor using the browser dev tools and i found that the Elementor Overlays are blocking the widgets in the editor. I added this CSS to the Customizer > Additional CSS at the very bottom of your CSS:

.elementor-editor-active .elementor .elementor-background-overlay, 
.elementor-editor-active .elementor .elementor-background-slideshow {
    pointer-events: none;
}

Now i can select those elements in the editor.

I can only assume that some of the CSS you have in Customizer > Additional CSS is causing the issue. Which is why the editor worked when you changed theme, as Additional CSS is saved in the Themes database.

I am still not able edit to header section: https://prnt.sc/w2f434

It works in safe mode only. Please check and fix this issue asap.

Can you temporarily remove your Custom CSS to see if that is causing the issue.

Ok, Let me check.
