 * Hi,
 * I’m encountering a conflict with your plugin which causes the widgets categories
   from the Elementor editor not to be added.
 * I found the method `she_header_init` eg: [https://d.pr/i/MbYyFy](https://d.pr/i/MbYyFy)
   which is adding a widgets category group but also initializes Elementor’s manager(
   probably duplicates it) too early.
 * I suggest using the recommended hook `elementor/elements/categories_registered`
   hook. Here’s a quick snippet [https://d.pr/n/ysu0eJ](https://d.pr/n/ysu0eJ) .
 * Thanks!

 * [@mhogas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mhogas/) the plugin code has been
   changed as per your recommendation. The change will be included with the WP v5.9
   compatibility release and will be pushed to the repo after normal bug testing.
   
   Thanks again for your input with this.
