Elementor not loading error

Elementor not loading occurs when the editor cannot initialize. The problem usually stems from server resources or configuration which stop required scripts from running. Low PHP memory, outdated PHP version, or server security rules block the AJAX calls used to load the editor.

When the editor stops, Elementor cannot render its panels or widgets. The result is a blank screen, endless spinner, or error messages. The issue prevents you from editing pages and affects site performance.

Common Causes

Low PHP memory limit
Memory limit below 256M stops PHP from loading Elementor scripts.
Out‑of‑date PHP version
PHP version older than 7.4 prevents Elementor from running newer code.
Server security restrictions
ModSecurity rules or Cloudflare Rocket Loader block AJAX requests used by Elementor.
Corrupt Elementor files
Missing or unreadable core files stop script loading.
