Here is the only code I needed to get Elementor working:
https://pastebin.com/veknL8HqHi @sabrina1128,
My issue was with a theme I am developing from scratch. If you are using a downloaded theme, it might be a little more complicated; However, I will do my best to help.
Elementor seems to work based off of “the loop” (https://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop). Make sure that loop is in the theme template along with the line: “the_content();”. The specific template file might be different based on which theme you’re using, but a good bet is the “page.php” file for general pages.
Hope this helps!
Turns out, a bare-bones implementation works. Elementor requires a loop implementation that outputs the content via the_content(). Guess I forgot to include that line in my test theme.
Thanks for the help!
Thank you for the reply. Yes, the TwentySixteen works, but this doesn’t help me figure out what’s wrong with my own custom theme. What about the TwentySixteen theme makes it so Elementor works with it and not a theme with just “the loop”?
