Section aren't displayed in page editor

Hi
I'm having a problem with sections. They aren't displayed in the page editor anymore (just empty grey space).
I updated to the latest wordpress and generatepress versions last weeks. After updating I was able to edit the sections.
But since yesterday it isn't possible anymore. It concerns the productiv website as well as my testing installation.
But: The frontend page is still displayd as neat as ever...
Thank you very much for your help!
PS: Already cleared Browser cache and tested with different browser. I haven't added any new plugins lately...
When i open the page editor on my mobile devices, the sections ar displayed, but in the configuration sidebar instead of the main area... any idea what could cause this?
Hi there,
Can you provide us temporary login to check?
You can use the private information text field to provide the site link and credentials.

Hi Elvin
Thank you very much for your answer.
I just created an temporary login account for you on my test system (see private information)
"Funny" thing: With the account I created for you the section are displayed properly...
Are there any user dependent configurations?
Thank you
Hi there,
It seems the Sections metabox was moved into the sidebar on your site which is why you're not seeing it down below.
Gutenberg currently has a bug where you can't move metaboxes back to the bottom: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/7960
There is a solution here if you have access to your database: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/7960#issuecomment-731867284
