I just went to the test page using FireFox and there was no spinning wheel. Elementor does take long to load items and I have seen spinning wheels due to this delay but only in the acutual Elementor entry screens, not on the active web site. * Thread Starter [sg83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sg83/) * (@sg83) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527526) * No, it’s not within the Elementor editor. It’s when viewing/interacting with the page itself. It happens with that particular post function that I mentioned. * [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/) * (@lestexas60) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527582) * What is the URL of the page? * Thread Starter [sg83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sg83/) * (@sg83) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527590) * There is no next page. You just post a “To-Do” task on the project and it’s supposed to refresh the view. * [http://testsite/index.php/project/test-project-2/#project-content-todo](http://testsite/index.php/project/test-project-2/#project-content-todo) * [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/) * (@lestexas60) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527621) * I just entered the info and did submit. The rotating arrow rotated for about 2 seconds and then went to the next page. A little slow but not bad considering it’s sending a message. * This may vary depending on the users internet connection speed. I have Comcast high speed. * Thread Starter [sg83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sg83/) * (@sg83) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527639) * I’m not sure what you’re referring to. Are you saying you have a demo of the Woffice theme combined with having the Elementor plug-in enabled? * [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/) * (@lestexas60) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527709) * I went to the url you provided. Is that the site that is showing the rotating circle? * The site the uRL went to was a domain sale site, is that yours? - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/). * Thread Starter [sg83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sg83/) * (@sg83) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527716) * No, my site isn’t public. * [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/) * (@lestexas60) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527728) * OK, I thought you provided the URL so we could look for the spinning circle. Check it with a couple different Browsers to see if the load time changes. Basically it looks like an option on your site is just loading slow. Without seeing the actual page, there is not much more I can offer.

It’s about the post being issued, the error resulting( evidenced by the Apache logs), and the spinning circle that remains until page refresh or a different page selection. The post goes through, but not cleanly. * [LesTexas60](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lestexas60/) * (@lestexas60) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-elementor-and-a-theme/#post-10527904) * Just to clarify, this is a private web site.? Elementor does slow down some items on a web site. Is there another plugin that does the same functionality that you want? It seems you have identified a possible compatibility issue. I would try another plugin if one is available.
