Problem with Elementor's posts element

Hi there,
I initially thought this problem was caused my Elementor but their support got back to me and told me it was caused by the theme as switching to a default one resolved the issue.
Here's my initial ticket that I wrote to Elementor:
Hello there,
I'm having problems with the posts element. In editing mode, everything looks good but on the actual page, I get that enormous padding under the images.
Using Elementor in conjunction with GP and everything is up to date.
Please see the screenshots for more information.
I get these errors in my console: https://pastebin.com/swBzaRga
It is a rather fresh installation - besides the Elementor plugins and the GP Premium plugin, I only have Akismet and the Duplicate Post plugin installed. I nevertheless deactivated both of these plugins but the problem still persisted. There's no CDN or caching set up at the moment.
I appreciate any help and please let me know if you need further information from me.
Kind regards,
Lars
Hi there,
Just checked the blog page and a single post page and both look normal to me?

Am I missing something?
Hi Leo,
if you scroll down on the blog page (http://vegabun.de/blog/), don't you see this?
Ahh yup I see it. That is definitely not GP's problem.
It's causing by this CSS which is entirely from elementor:
.elementor-131 .elementor-element.elementor-element-ff23685 .elementor-posts-container .elementor-post__thumbnail {
padding-bottom: calc( 0.66 * 100% );
}You can overwrite it (probably not the best way) by doing this:
.elementor-131 .elementor-element.elementor-element-ff23685 .elementor-posts-container .elementor-post__thumbnail {
padding-bottom: 0;
}Or ask Elementor again for better support. If they still think it's a GP problem (it's not ;) ). Please ask them to be specify the problem.
Thanks Leo, I'll go ahead and contact their support again.
Hey Lars!
I know this is from more than 3 years ago, but how did you solve it? I'm having the same issue, and it only happens sometimes.
Hi Gerard,
worth raising a support topic with Elementor - if they point the finger at the Theme then create a new topic and share the site link so we can take a look.
