Hi,
Thanks for the detailed explanation.
It looks like the issue is caused by a conflict between the current site setup (theme/builder used previously) and the Animation Addons plugin. When the plugin is active, it tries to render the content using its own builder structure (data-aee="builder"), but since the existing pages are not built or assigned with compatible templates, the main content area appears empty.
That’s why you only see the header and footer (built with the plugin), while the page content is not loading.
We recommend checking if a proper Single Page template is assigned in the builder. However, in many cases like this (when taking over an older site), the best approach is to set up the theme and plugin on a fresh environment and rebuild or migrate the content for full compatibility.
If you need guidance on this, feel free to let us know — we’ll be happy to assist.
Thanks so much for your response. I’ve tried changing the page template to every one I can see available, but it’s still the same. My client JUST had this site built, so rebuilding it from scratch is really the last resort. I see there is a single page template in the plugin, but it is blank. If I deleted that template, would it revert to one of the Elementor templates? Or if I fill in that template, should it work? I guess I’m confused about what tells the theme to use these headers/footers or these page templates.
FYI, I was right. I just had to create a page template, and then it worked correctly.
