 * After debugging my website, I was able to determine that this plugin was responsible
   for breaking WordPress Front End Editing (Edit Live). With the plugin enabled,
   the page will not load in the front end editor, and a blank white page is displayed.
   Disabling this plugin allowed me to once again use the front-end editor.
 * I am still using the plugin, because it’s awesome, and the front-end editor was
   only needed for one simple task related to assigning dynamic links to buttons
   on my theme (Avada 7.7.1 Current Version), that said, it would be great if you
   could fix this issue.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fthis-plugin-breaks-wordpress-edit-live-functionality%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for using WP External Links! We will look into the Avada issue and 
   if possible fix it in the next update, but in the meantime you can try going 
   to the Exceptions tab of WPEL and uncheck All contents (the whole page) for the
   Apply Settings on option and leave the other 3 checked 🙂
