Can you pleae share all meaningful required information that should help to understand the issue and then I will be able to guide you in the right direction.

I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

Can you please check now.
The issue was:
Content Templates modify the content when called from the WordPress’ built-in the_content function. Some themes do not use the_content function, but define their own function. In this case, Content Templates are not applied to selected posts on the front-end.
To solve this, you can enter the name of the function your theme uses on the Toolset->Settings page, under the Front-end Content tab. You can find the appropriate field in Theme support for Content Templates section. I've added the following function name "render_block_core_post_content".

Now, I can see the edit form.
Thak you so much. How did you figure out which function to use?
How can i remove the Post title when editing?

Please read the following Doc:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/theme-support-for-content-templates/
If you don’t know the name of your theme’s function, check the Enable theme support debugging option and click Save.
Now, go to a page that should be displayed using a Content Template and copy the call function name that displays. Go back to the Front-end Content tab in Toolset Settings and paste the name of the function into the Theme support for Content Templates section.
