Elementor simplifies the process of developing website pages in WordPress. However, you may occasionally encounter Elementor stuck on loading screen and sometimes widget panel may also doesn’t load for you. It can get aggravating at times as this issue can take many forms. Several users aren’t sure what they’re dealing with.
1. Make Sure there are No Plugin Conflicts
Since Elementor claims that add-on plugins are the source of these loading issues, it’s best to start here. Third-party add-ons are usually to blame for the ‘Elementor not loading’ problem. There are many Elementor add-ons available, and if you use one that isn’t correctly written, you may get issues like this.
If you can’t figure out what’s causing the Elementor Stuck on Loading problem, Deactivate these plugins and see if the problem goes away.
2. PHP Memory Limit Increase
One of the leading causes of the Elementor Stuck on Loading Error is a limited PHP Memory Limit. It is adjusted to 40M by default. However, a minimum of 64M and a maximum of 256M is required to run Elementor smoothly.
For those who are unaware of what WP MEMORY LIMIT is, WordPress allows you to adjust the maximum memory consumption by PHP by using the WP MEMORY LIMIT PHP constant. Suppose your system has 1GB of RAM and that all of that memory is available to PHP.
When a page is loaded and PHP is started, the maximum amount of RAM that the webpage PHP process can utilize is X. Assume you’ve adjusted the memory limit to 128MB.
To check your WordPress site’s memory size, go to ‘wp-admin -> Elementor -> System Info’.
Updating the wp-config.php file is the starting step. You can go using the cPanel File Manager or FTP server in the WordPress folder.
Look for the” /* That’s all, stop modifying!” line in the wp-config.php file. Put the following line of code before this comment :
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘128M’);
After adding the lines, go back to wp-admin -> Elementor -> System Info and double-check that the changes have been saved.
