    I have a website with Jupiter X theme.
    When I edit the page using ‘edit with elementor’ I can change the content but when I try to edit the page setting from the WordPress dashboard in order to disable page title bar, this error appear:
    Publishing failed. Could not update the meta value of _elementor_template_type in database.

    Everything is updated.
    I have cleared the Elementor and website cache
    I have disabled plugins in order to check plugin conflicts
    Nothing to do,

    Hi there,

    Thanks for contacting us, and we hope you are doing well and having a great day.

    To rule out the possibility of a plugin or theme conflict, please deactivate all your plugins not just elementor addons (besides Elementor). If it solves the issue reactivate them one by one to find the culprit. If it didn’t help, switch your theme (temporarily) to a default WP theme such as Twenty Nineteen and see if it makes any difference.

    Also, this could happen due to our Elementor performance experiments you can try to deactivate them. To deactivate them you can go to Elementor > settings > features
    Performance features currently in the experimental stage are:

    Element Caching – Elements caching reduces loading times by serving up a copy of an element instead of rendering it fresh every time the page is loaded. When active, Elementor will determine which elements can benefit from static loading – but you can override this.

    Inline Font Icons – This experiment renders icons as SVGs without loading the Font-Awesome and eicons libraries. Since SVGs are vector-based images which are rendered using the browser’s engine, they do not increase server requests which improves performance

    I am looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

    Kind regards

    The only way to fix the error was installing Classic Editor plugin.
    In this way, everything is working. Maybe is it something you can better understand why this happen?

    Hi @silviasciuto,

    The error “Publishing failed. Could not update the meta value of _elementor_template_type in database” is a known conflict tied directly to how the default WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg) communicates with the server via the WordPress REST API while updating post meta data owned by Elementor.

    When you installed the Classic Editor plugin, you bypassed this problem because the Classic Editor avoids using the REST API altogether for saving posts, utilizing traditional PHP POST requests instead.

    I hope that helps.

    Kind regards,
