 * Hello,
 * I cannot update my customizer with the free OceanWP theme.
 * Where the “Publish” button was it just says “Cannot Activate”. It doesn’t let
   me save any changes. This is a relatively new thing.
 * Please see image: [https://imgur.com/a/v1ervKK](https://imgur.com/a/v1ervKK)
 * My theory is that for some reason the theme thinks I should be a paid member 
   and it isn’t able to activate my account. I have a section called “View Paid 
   Features”.
 * What can I do to fix this issue?

 * HI,
 * It seems the plugin conflict issue. Try to disable all the nonocean plugin and
   check if it is working or not. If yes, enable the one by one plugin, and refresh
   the page after enabling each plugin, to check the conflict issue.
 * If not resolved by the above, Would you be so kind and go to Elementor > System
   Info and share the report with us so that we can take a look?

 * I have the same problem. Thought maybe it was WP 5.6 but downgrading to 5.3.3
   didn’t work either, deactivating all plugins doesn’t work.
