Elementor Pro | WordPress Websites Builder [Premium] v3.21.1

[bobsmith]

Related to this I think...

FYI elementor 3.7.0 confirmed bug. If you set a column > Layout > Widget Space to 0, it will not work but will default to use 20px. However if you use any other number it works fine, such as if you use 1 instead of 0. Elementor knows about it and has it on their radar but for anyone who like to use that setting to zero out vertical spacing between widgets sometimes, you should not update to 3.7.0 yet if that matters to you, or go through and change them all to 1

Can see their temp hotfix to be default 20px or one and not allow zero and then we have to go and override that setting

Explain to me please why nulling would affect you being able to delete a plugin

Whatever, keep make fun of with people.

It is not a joke at people, that is just my sense of humour, some get it some don't, different people and countries always going to be different humour.

Removed comment for you.

All I am curious about is to why you think the nulling affecting it?

I've just encountered this problem when trying to delete nulled free elementor (3.6.8 in this case) on a customers site.

Can you elaborate more, did you get any error messages shown or was something simply not delectable as nulling this should not affect the removal of it.

When I update to Elementor 3.7.0 free version, then update failed also because old plugin can not be removed. And when I had a look inside the folder with ftp, the elementor folder was there under plugins but only with a template folder inside and no other files present. So it failed to delete the old plugin completely and upload the new files. Had to manually remove it first. Some bug or error somewhere when trying to update.

Elementor Pro uninstalled fine, Elementor Core threw an error about it not uninstalling correctly. It no longer showed in the installed plugins list but the elementor folder was not removed from the plugins folder preventing reinstallation of untouched until customer deletes via cpanel.

This is my 1st time seeing this happen.

What exactly is the error you are getting?

Save/Update did not work in Wordpress and Elementor.

I think I know what the error is, let me just check.

The problem is not related with elementor. I think there is a problem with nulling.

For the last 2 times, I've been getting the error "Update failed: Could not remove the old plugin."

The only way to update is manually delete the old elementor folder from ftp and re-install it.

The plugin works fine for me at the moment, I think the problem you are having is when including the Font Awesome files (https://babia.to/resources/font-awesome-pro-elementor-integration.7678/), this is due to some fixes in the icons implemented by the Elementor team in their latest version.

This incompatibility has been fixed recently by @smsco try to download the latest zip (https://babia.to/threads/font-awesome-pro-elementor-integration.19491/#post-968199) or just don't include it.

This is nothing to do with Font Awesome

With the issue, the post from @jaaos gave me the info needed for the reason
the elementor folder was there under plugins but only with a template folder inside and no other files present

Now remember we used to put templates folder into Free, however now we don't as can't install Pro templates through Library only Free.

Therefore all previous versions will have this additional 'templates' folder so when you uninstall, the uninstallation method does not remove that templates folder as not originally included.

However, I can say that I did not have this issue when installing and overwriting previous Free version on local or sandbox to test it before uploading here, so it might also depend on your own setup.

Ahh that makes sense! It shouldn't be a problem for overwriting but is for deleting.

Yes but luckily it will only be a one time happening.

Ok so its problem only when deleting the plugin right? The update process won't have any issue right? To uninstall, we will need to manually delete the Elementor folder from cPanel?

Yes no issue with updating and in your case you won't have an issue deleting now either as you are using the genuine version.

@Medw1311 Missing a great moment here lol - Insert Buy Elementor Link Here
Do I get commission then for everybody to buy genuine from yourself

New Update comes with alot of issues anyways, would roll back and wait it out.

.elementor-widget:notlast-child) {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}

this is one issue you'll find.

Yes, it's an issue with the latest Elementor version.

If you want to fix it, go to: Elementor Site Settings > Layout > Widget space (px) set it to 0 or value that suites for you.
