Hello Themeforest Community,
I’m reaching out to share an issue I’ve encountered while working with the Careerfy theme, specifically involving a conflict between WP Bakery and Elementor page builders.
While making edits using WP Bakery, I noticed that the changes weren’t reflected on the live site. After consulting WP Bakery’s support team (who were very helpful), the root cause of the issue was identified: a conflict with Elementor.
The Problem:
When Elementor is active, it seems to interfere with WP Bakery, preventing changes from being displayed on the front end. To view or apply updates made with WP Bakery, Elementor must be deactivated temporarily.
Possible Solutions:
-
Choose a Primary Page Builder:
- If WP Bakery is your preferred tool, consider permanently deactivating Elementor.
- Alternatively, migrate entirely to Elementor to avoid conflicts altogether.
-
Deactivate Elementor While Using WP Bakery:
- Temporarily disable Elementor when making changes with WP Bakery. Once the updates are live, you can reactivate Elementor if needed.
-
Check Theme and Plugin Dependencies:
- Ensure that the Careerfy theme and related plugins are optimized for the page builder you’re using. Some themes or plugins may favor one builder over the other.
-
Use a Staging Environment:
- Test changes in a staging site before applying them to your live environment. This can help identify conflicts without disrupting your live site.
Community Feedback:
Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Careerfy theme or found a permanent fix? If so, I’d love to hear your solutions or suggestions to improve workflow while avoiding these builder conflicts.
Thank you for your time, and I hope this post helps others facing similar challenges.
Best regards,
