 * Hi,
 * Can you please send us your site URL?
 * Using the latest stable version I did not encounter this issue. It might be a
   conflict with your theme or plugins,
 * Please follow these steps, and let me know if it solved your issue:
 * – Deactivate all of your plugins except Elementor. If this solves the problem,
   gradually activate your plugins one by one, until you spot the problematic plugin.
 * – switch your WordPress theme to WordPress TwentySixteen (or other default WordPress
   theme) temporarily – and see if it solves your error.
 * I hope this information helped you.

 * Hey!
    Well!😥… I’ve done all of the above! Listen, I did this: Deactivated all
   plugins, Changed the whole theme!? Not sure all is okay!
 * **Here’s what I did more!**
 * I was on Nginx host. I got a new server! Lightspeed!
    Installed Elementor on 
   fresh WP, And needed plugins. I got the same Issue! Then again deactivated all
   plugins, And still facing the same Issue! 100% something wrong!
 * Not convinced yet?
    Okay, I’ve done it on Localhost too! You can do it too!!!
 * Drag the “Icon Box” widget! Set your needed design on it! Then set “Positioning
   > Custom Width” any percentage on each device: Ex: Desktop 50%, Tablet 45%, Phone
   100%…
 * Then look into the results! You can tell!
 * I am looking forward to hearing from you.
    Kind Regards Muh

 * Hi,
 * After investigating it seems you have encountered a bug. Unfortunately, there
   is no workaround for now- I recommend keeping an eye on our [changelog until a permanent fix is released](https://wordpress.org/plugins/elementor/#developers).

 * Hi,
 * This thread is resolved as there is no fix at the moment, we are working on it.
 * You can roll back if you need it to work as follows –

 * Hi,
 * I apologize for the inconvenience.
    There is a workaround to solve this problem.
   If you look at the Positioning settings on tablet or mobile you will see that
   text for the “Custom” select option is a lighter gray color, like smaller opacity:
   [https://prnt.sc/yEIFZe9vc2SK](https://prnt.sc/yEIFZe9vc2SK). More precise to
   say is not selected.
 * If you go and select the Custom option for tablet and mobile, set the width in
   percentage, and save changes, you will see that settings are applied on the frontend.

 * Positioning width set to Custom for tablet: [https://prnt.sc/iIzooMjNtbfo](https://prnt.sc/iIzooMjNtbfo)
   
   Frontend preview for tablets: [https://prnt.sc/o02gL8iwh4cT](https://prnt.sc/o02gL8iwh4cT)
   Frontend preview for mobiles: [https://prnt.sc/jfLxOcvnF_aO](https://prnt.sc/jfLxOcvnF_aO)
 * The trick is to make sure Custom width is selected for every responsive breakpoint(
   tablets, mobiles, etc.) and that you entered the desired width of the widget 
   for that device. I made these edits for the first section under hero on this 
   page: https:[//husseinsaleh.de/ueber-mich/](https://husseinsaleh.de/ueber-mich/).
   If you have any other pages using custom Positioning, please try this workaround
   and let me know how it worked.
 * If the issue persists, please try to roll back to the version that worked for
   you.
