 * [DOM] Found 2 elements with non-unique id #qt_excerpt_ed_three_fourth_last: (
   More info: [https://goo.gl/9p2vKq](https://goo.gl/9p2vKq)) <input type=​”button”
   id=​”qt_excerpt_ed_three_fourth_last” class=​”ed_button button button-small” 
   value=​”three fourth last”>​
 * [DOM] Found 2 elements with non-unique id #qt_excerpt_ed_three_fourth_last: (
   More info: [https://goo.gl/9p2vKq](https://goo.gl/9p2vKq)) <input type=​”button”
   id=​”qt_excerpt_ed_three_fourth_last” class=​”ed_button button button-small” 
   value=​”three fourth last”>​
 * As i understand this is because the excerpt is empty but i want it empty???
    
   This Dom error slows the backend very much. How do i fix it?

 * The ID name seems to be generated by something using ‘qt’. Does this ring a bell
   with respect to your theme or an installed plugin?

 * Thank you for your reply. I have 3 plugins installed:
    Masterslider which uses‘
   ms’, woocomerce and woocommerce advance product field which uses ‘wapf’
 * Installed theme is Divi but it uses ‘et_’.
    Is it possible that this is related
   to wordpress excerpts?

 * Let’s try some troubleshooting: This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please
   attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. 
   If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your
   troubles.
 * If you can install plugins, install “Health Check”: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and
   change the theme for JUST you, while you’re still logged in, **without affecting
   normal visitors to your site**. You can then use its admin bar menu to turn on/
   off plugins and themes one at a time. See [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
   or [https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/](https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/)

 * Hi there,
    once again, thank you for your reply. I did that and have enabled 
   woocommerce only. The error is still in the console. All i have is a product 
   featured image What does that mean? do i need to go back to an older version?

 * `#qt_excerpt_ed_three_fourth_last:` sure seems like something from a page builder.
   It’s not core WP.

 * It’s too fuzzy for me to read.
 * Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks. _Note:
   Your link will be public and we will not later remove it._
