Activate Safe Mode

Issue

If you are unable to edit because of the Elementor Loading page, you can troubleshoot the problem by enabling Elementor’s Safe Mode.

What is Safe Mode?

Safe Mode isolates Elementor and WordPress from the themes and plugins that may be causing the error. It:

• helps identify any issue that interferes with Elementor loading. In most cases, loading issues are caused by conflicts between plugins or themes. 
• lets you verify if the problem persists even after deactivating plugins and themes, and pinpoint the possible cause of the issue.

The only thing that changes when Safe Mode is enabled is that the Elementor Editor loading is done without any activated Plugins or Themes. Enabling Safe Mode also temporarily deactivates all Elementor Experiments.

Using Safe Mode opens the Elementor Editor on a clean version of WordPress, without loading a theme or any plugins. All plugins are deactivated and an empty theme file is loaded.

Solution

Follow these steps to enable safe mode:

1. Login to WP Admin.
2. Go to Elementor > Tools.
3. Select Enable for Safe Mode.
   
4. Click Save Changes.
   • The Editor loads with the Safe Mode enabled.
   • If the Editor does not load, a pop up will appear on the bottom right. 
     
5. Click Enable Safe Mode.

When Safe Mode is ON, you get the following message on the bottom right of the page:
