Last update cause white screen

Yes, me too.

Fatal error: Cannot declare class Happy_Addons\Elementor\Finder, because the name is already in use in domain.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/happy-elementor-addons/classes/finder.php on line 53

Bloody irritating.

This is a lesson learned. Fancy plugins with lots or free widgets. A small update, I didn’t even make a backup. And it broke a live site. Sloppy of me. And perhaps this plugin should be called Sloppy Elementor Addons? 😉

What caused it? Are you not using plugin-specific variables and function calls? I am sorry too, for the downtime and for making me look like an idiot. I will not activate this plugin again.

Yes, we’re prefixing as well as we have a unique namespace Happy_Addons. We have a class Happy_Addons\Elementor\Finder which extends Elementor’s Elementor\Core\Common\Modules\Finder\Base_Category class. We’re using this to add a shortcut in Elementor finder.

Before 2.2.6 we were initializing Happy_Addons\Elementor\Finder class in Elementor’s recommended way. But after Essentials Addons latest update somehow EA was loading our class before we are loading! And it’s puzzling us!!! But the problem is fixed.

We’ll be extremely cautious from now on with the updates. Hope you’ll give us a chance.

Thanks 🙂

Thank you so much for your kindness @argentum

@alifarhan231087 Thank you very much for your understanding mate

Thanks for your support and patience guys 🙂

When you deactivate a plugin after using any widget from that plugin you simply don’t see any output of that widget. But the code is still in the database as long as you don’t edit the page. And this is how Elementor handles the stuff.
