 * Hi Folks,
 * Just to let you know that we are also experiencing this problem with over 80 
   websites running both Elementor and Rank Math. Hope you can get it resolved soon.
 * Thanks, Dave

 * Hi Peter,
 * Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. I will forward on your response to the
   server admins at SiteGround where the majority of these problems are taking place.
   I appreciate this is not a common problem as there is very little discussion 
   about it online which is making troubleshooting difficult.
 * I have not experienced any warnings or errors until now. Siteground have advised
   me to replace WordFence with their own ‘SG security’ plugin. The .tmp files are
   not being stored in the WordFence directory, instead they are being saved in 
   a hidden root directory which I can only access via secure shell.
 * Fortunately I will still be running WordFence on the majority of our other websites.
   Thanks again for the fantastic service WordFence provides.
 * David

 * Thanks wpnomad – agree staging is best practice but WordPress is an affordable
   tool for small businesses, the business owner’s husband was the one being directed
   by Divi support to make critical changes to the website. To be honest I can’t
   believe the Divi staff would recommend something so reckless without ensuring
   there is a backup. Luckily I had taken one earlier that day.
 * We got the site working again and between Divi Support, the hosting company’s
   technicians, rolling WordPress back to 5.4 etc. we managed to get it working 
   correctly again. It seemed to have something to do with an image asset which 
   was being requested from a third party server.
 * Thank you very much for your interest and suggestions, much appreciated.
 * Thanks,
 * Dave

 * Thanks for your reply wpnomad. Rather than the site loading slowly, there is 
   a burst of content and then a freeze/pause, like something is waiting to be loaded,
   which ultimately times out and then everything else is delivered. When I deactivated
   WooCommerce and reactivated, the problem was solved, but links to products categories
   etc. then returned a broken link.
 * Unfortunately since I spoke, my friends have spoke to Divi theme support, their
   technician asked them to change woocommerce store permalinks, move files on the
   server etc. unfortunately the site is now broken. I’m restoring the backup now
   and will look into answering your suggestions.
 * Many thanks,
 * Dave

 * I’m also experiencing the same problem, weirdly on isolated pages which are duplicated
   templates. I’m hearing the audio on my Google Pixel 2 running Chrome 76. This
   page in particular seems to be the worst offender: [https://bubble-footie.mmandb-staging.co.uk/bubble-football/](https://bubble-footie.mmandb-staging.co.uk/bubble-football/).
   If I remove the fallback image then the problem with the audio playing is resolved
   but
 * Having the background video is a big deal to the client, looking forward to Elementor
   supporting the display of the videos on mobile devices – looks like there are
   custom workarounds.

 * Hi Ian,
 * The final straw which led to this rather frustrated comment was using the columns
   block to simply display 2 images side by, repeated for a few rows. The editor
   interface was all over the place, tool bars displaying way out of position and
   various functions overlapping each other. I had to keep updating the page just
   to reset and fix the layout. Using the single image block within these columns,
   when I viewed the front end the images were tiny and out of position. It was 
   not intuitive to manage even this simple layout. Perhaps there were conflicts
   with the theme, but after an hour I gave up and added Elementor.
 * Thanks for your reply Ian and all the best,

 * Hi Anders,
 * You’re a top man, many thanks. Your work is making a positive impact to our local
   community, both this theme for the Art Trail, an award winning, volunteer-driven
   community event. I’ve also used Lovecraft for a community action group, raising
   awareness about the selling of public land to become a housing development which
   has now been stopped in the wake of massive community objection.
 * Thank you for the reply and heads up about the plugin, I will give it a try.
 * All the best,
 * David

 * Thanks Rupok,
 * Sorry for the bad review initially, just got so frustrated with not having any
   sort of acknowledgement to the premium support tickets I sent, especially with
   paying for Premium. I will continue to use the chat to help resolve my problems.

 * Hi Rupok,
 * Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. The link in the plugin settings page
   for help is ‘[https://wpdeveloper.net/&#8217](https://wpdeveloper.net/&#8217);–
   there is a link for support which is the link I have listed. Every time I have
   visited your site the chat has been offline, but today I see it is active. I 
   will commence a chat support shortly.
 * Thanks,
 * David
