 * Hi WordPress Community,
 * I update my server configuration without change, this 413 error is still there
   in our longest Elementor pages !
 * PHP 7.0
 * upload_max_filesize : 256M
    max_input_vars : 10000 max_input_time : 600 max_execution_time:
   600 post_max_size : 256M
 * The mystery to me is that we worked with pretty basic server for a couple of 
   years for the same kind of page length/content without any trouble.
 * Old server configuration,
 * PHP 5.6
 * upload_max_filesize : 16M
    max_input_vars : 1000 max_input_time : 60 max_execution_time:
   60 post_max_size : 16M

 * Hi LogoLogics thank for your reply and this link,
 * I followed it with hope, but the error 413 still appears, even after erasing 
   the cache and all cookies. (Error 413 appears in elementor, above the button 
   publish.)
    It happens with all these browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera.
 * Elementor is a great tool but I feel stuck without option to upgrade our content.
 * I keep searching!

 * Too bad it did not help yet…
 * Did you try out these steps like disabling all other plugins and switching theme
   to see what causes this?
    [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/please-read-before-you-post-an-issue/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/please-read-before-you-post-an-issue/)
 * Have you tried the highest version of php?
    All my sites are running on 7.2.7,
   not saying this is it, but maybe one of your plugins does not play well with 
   current version.
 * De-activating all other plugins is the best way to start eliminating the cause.
   
   If they are deactivating and the issue is gone, it must be one of the plugins.
   Start activating them one by one until the issue is back, that will tell you 
   that the latest activated plugin is the culprit.

 * Oh, and always, always make sure to have backups!!
 * I recall having a similar issue ( not sure it was the exact same error ) but 
   in some very long pages with lots of animations etc that page kept losing the
   connection.
 * I just had to remove too many content and animation and the issue was gone.
    
   At that time I did not even know Elementor, I was using Visual Composer.
 * Could you provide a link to the pages where this is happening?

 * De-activating all other plugins, yes I did the first day, like I set the value
   WP-DEBUG to true ! I also tryed the TwentySixteen theme, without improvement.
 * Today (with all the plugin de-activated) I tryed to downgrade Elementor plugin!
   
   From V2.2.7(last) to 1.98, the error ’’413 Request Entity Too large’’ appears
   after pressing the save/publish elementor button. From V1.8 to 1.7x the page 
   can’t be save, after pressing the save/publish elementor button (the green barre
   load, then stuck at 100% browser width).

 * Ok, I quess this page is making to many “requests” and the server where your 
   site is hosted is having trouble to resolve it, resulting is not being able to
   edit the page.
 * Not sure if this is actually **THE** culprit, but the server needs to make calls
   to third party servers like you tube, Google maps and can not handle it in time.
 * When I run that page in [https://gtmetrix.com/](https://gtmetrix.com/) this is
   the result:

 * As you can see in my screenshot, or when you run your page through GTmerix yourself,
   this page has 110 requests, which is a lot! and it takes 11 seconds to load the
   page, which is TOO long :-).

 * Could you provide the server information?
    Go to the Elementor tab> System info
   and paste the info here please.
 * You have php 7, but I can not see what is you max memory?
    That info will provide
   that and lots of other stuff that might help resolve this.

 * Oh my god!
 * I used GT metrix few month a go, and strangely the result was far from this!
   
   If I remember well this page never execeed 5 seconds, as well I just tried my
   Home page (who is really short and simple) and the result is over 8 sec!
 * Thank LogoLogics to point this!
 * As I say before everything was running well since few month with the same page
   length and wordpress configuration!

 * I notice it is a multi language site as well, that alone is ( in my experience)
   a big slow downer for a site.

 * Yes, it is a strange. If you could provide the system info, maybe something in
   there can tell us more.
 * So between the time all worked just fine, are there changes that could trigger
   this?
    Added more plugins? Changed host?
 * If I am not mistaken, your site is hosted here:
