My issue with Elementor, showing text and slider movement correctly in edit mode but not in live mode, turned out to be caused by the w3 total cache plugin. Once I deactivated it, Elementor functioned correctly. It may be my fault for not editing the W3 settings correctly, but I ended up using the WP Rocket plugin in its place and everything is working fine once again. WP Rocket was a bit easier to configure and offered some good explanations as to why I should or should not select a particular setting. I also watched a YouTube video on setting up WP Rocket to give me more confidence in my settings. WP Rocket has a free Cloudflare CDN network add-on that I tried and now GTMetrix.com is showing my site with a PageSpeed score of A(97%) and a YSlow score of A(93%) and Elementor is working as it should. I highly recommend the WP Rocket plugin.
Has anyone resolved this issue? I’ve tried the above recommendations but no luck. I am also using Elementor.
