Title: Elementor Edit Screen Black Last modified: August 22, 2019 --- # Elementor Edit Screen Black * Resolved [gapdecaders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gapdecaders/) * (@gapdecaders) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/) * I updated Elementor this morning and can no longer edit. After opening the post page in Elementor, after about two seconds the screen goes black. I can access the widgets on the left hand side and see the top half of the post featured image but nothing else. I have left the screen for 15 minutes but no change. I have tried regererating CSS and syncing, no change. I have deleted cache, no change. I have rolled back to previous versions of Elementor and Pro, no change. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Felementor-edit-screen-black%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * [Donna Fontenot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavalierlife/) * (@cavalierlife) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11856795) * I’ve seen a few users report this and I’m trying to track down anything in common. By any chance are you running Adsense on your site? * Thread Starter [gapdecaders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gapdecaders/) * (@gapdecaders) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11856801) * I have google ads but add them manually using cut and paste into an HTML widget in Elementor. * [iborine](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iborine/) * (@iborine) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11856802) * I was about to post the same issue. * I’m running Adsense on my site if that helps * [Donna Fontenot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavalierlife/) * (@cavalierlife) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11856865) * If you stop running the ads momentarily, does that affect the problem? * Thread Starter [gapdecaders](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gapdecaders/) * (@gapdecaders) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11856903) * To stop running them I need to remove each manually, which I can’t do as I can’t access the edit screen! I just tried archiving them in the Adsense website but it hasn’t made any difference. * [Donna Fontenot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavalierlife/) * (@cavalierlife) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11857171) * Can you turn off any adblockers on your browser and see if you can edit then? * [tlc72](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tlc72/) * (@tlc72) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11859610) * Same issue here with black screen. I had a widget that was site wide below the navigation menu with adsense code. I removed the widget and the page loaded fine in the edit screen. So, you seem to be on the right track with the adsense code… * [Donna Fontenot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavalierlife/) * (@cavalierlife) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11859698) * Sorry that should say turn on an ad blocker * [sollystar22](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sollystar22/) * (@sollystar22) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11860256) * I was going through same problem… I just download the ads blocker from chome extension on my pc now and it work fine and more fast 🚀 * Solution: Turn on Ads blocker when you want to use the elementor edit * [antoniomanco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/antoniomanco/) * (@antoniomanco) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11861361) * Hi, I also go through the same problem. The question is whether there will be any solution from Elementor, because it is annoying to have to use the ad blocker. Thanks * [Donna Fontenot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavalierlife/) * (@cavalierlife) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11861478) * Maybe. That’s hard to say. This is mostly on Google’s end, really, but the developers are going to try to work with Google to see if something can be done. * [esbfi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esbfi/) * (@esbfi) * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/elementor-edit-screen-black/#post-11873598) * Thanks so much to everyone who shared their fix here. I also have Google Ads running on my blog. I installed an ad blocker, and it did the trick! THANK YOU!
