Possible causes & solutions

Below are the possible causes and their solutions.

Elementor Post Types are not set

  2. Go to Elementor > Settings.
    “Edit with Elementor” missing 2
  3. Select required Post Types.

Plugin issues

Try to deactivate all of your plugins (besides Elementor) and see if the Edit with Elementor link returns. 

If this solves the issue, reactivate each plugin, one by one, until the problem returns. This will help you discover which plugin is causing the problem. 

Theme issues

Temporarily switch to the Hello theme.

Note
Your current theme settings will not be lost, and your site will return to normal as soon as you switch back to your normal theme.

If the problem disappears with the use of the Hello theme, but reappears with the use of your theme, contact your theme’s developers to resolve the issue.

Custom code issue

Temporarily remove any custom code to see if the problem is solved. If so, you have to troubleshoot your custom code to resolve the issue.
