    Hello,

    I just installed the theme and i can’t edit the homepage with elementor, it just loads an error like “the_content” WP function isn’t usable.

    Checked other pages (contact, resume and so on) and all of them work flawessly, the issue just happens with Home one.

    Not really sure about why isn’t working, it’s the first time i try Elementor builder.

    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I tried to login your website but i am getting this message “Nombre de usuario desconocido. Compruébalo de nuevo o inténtalo con tu dirección de correo electrónico.”
    Go to settings > reading > change the homepage and try to edit the homepage again.
    Thanks

    I somehow fixed it, had to manually add that function where the template loads functions, but i guess i shouldn’t force it as doesn’t seem to be an editable page. Not sure if this is on purpose, so we just can edit home page from Apparence->Customize.

    By the way i’m having a different issue with elementor. If i add some different content to any page, it’s shown on the Elementor page (i can see my changes) but when i load the page from the browser, icons and effects aren’t shown (but any other change like text or order is shown).

    Hi,
    You can check out this related topic;
    http://www.pixelwars.org/forums/topic/elementor-entrance-animation-issue/
    On the homepage, sub page’s content is fetched via ajax, so any element which requires extra javascript to work (such as entrance animations) won’t work on your homepage, sorry but there is nothing we can do about it because of the limitation of the ajax fetched page nature
    Thanks

    Okay, got it.

    As i’m not really proficient with ajax/js, can you tell me how to add more data to that ajax fetch? Like for example data from elementor basic elements, as Icons aren’t loaded but GMaps is.

    If possible, a small tutorial about how to add data from external plugins would be great, as i have a couple elementor plugins that i’d like to use.

    Thanks!

    Hi, this is not available by default, needs more further customizations, if you are not familiar to coding you may consider hiring an expert at wpkraken.io to do the job for you.

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the same error message with my site. I cannot modify the template of the home page because it is necessary to call the function “the_content”.

    Can you go look at my homepage on the Backoffice?
    I would like to add a link to the contact page on the home page.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    You should edit the homepage and change the template from homepage to default then elementor will allow you to edit it.

    Thank you very much !
    I have a second question:

    How can I make the background music of my site play in the background automatically? There is systematically an alert message asking the user to choose “YES” or “NO”.

    I would like to remove it so that the user experience is optimal and the animation of the slider, optimized with the music of the site.

    Yes, but that doesn’t solve my problem. I don’t want to go into default mode, but stay in “homepage” mode to edit elements.

    Hi,
    You can go to appearance > customize > general > music autoplay > choose yes and save it.
    I mean, you can edit your homepage then change it back to homepage again. When homepage template is selected, elementor doesn’t allow you to edit it. Or you can create a new page, edit it then save it as homepage. This is the other option.
    Thanks

    But how can I use the same model as the home page? Because if I create a new page, the page layout is different …. (ex : no slider, menu, social networks as previous)

    I just tried again doing what you told me. It gives me the same problem. Popup with message: Missing “the_content” function.

    Could you add this function so that I can use Elementor again?
    I really need to make changes to my home page: /

    Hi, Could you contact your hosting company to increase the upload limit at least to 128mb?
    Thanks
