# Elementor Theme Builder JSON Error Unexpected token

 * Hey there,
 * Currently running the latest version of Elementor and I am facing an issue when
   attempting to load Elementor’s version of the Theme Builder (no issue with the
   standard wordpress display).
 * The builder gives me the following error message :
 * **Error: Unexpected token ‘<‘, “<br /> <b>”… is not valid JSON**[](https://levantleather.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=elementor_library&tabs_group=theme)
 * Any idea how I could fix this ? I have tried downgrading elementor to a previous
   version as well as disable all my other plugins.
 * Thanks for the help

 * Hey there,
 * I would recommend you ask support from Elementor directly. These are their links:
    1. [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/elementor/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/elementor/)–
       if you are using free version
    2. [https://elementor.com/contact/](https://elementor.com/contact/) – if you are
       using premium version
 * CHeeers!

 * I had this issue and it turned out it was caused by the **debug **info rendered
   at the top of the page.
 * When disabled debug in wp-config.php, the issue was gone.
