Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - I see you are using number of third-party plugins related to permalinks as well as redirection.

In order to minimize the cause of the issue and to ensure that indeed there is the issue with Toolset plugin:
- Could you please try to resolve your issue by deactivating all third-party plugins as well as the default theme to check for any possible conflicts with any of the plugins or themes?

If the above step does not help, I need problem URL where I can see your edit form with access details.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
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 would additionally need your permission to de- and re-activate Plugins and the Theme, and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is really important. If you agree to this, please use the form fields I have enabled below to provide temporary access details (wp-admin and FTP).

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

I see you are using outdated Elementor plugin version. Could you please update Elementor plugin to it's latest official released version 2.3.2 and try to resolve your issue.

There is a bug in the newest Elementor version. Elementor team told me to rollback the Elementor free to the previous version. On the previous version of Elementor 404 problem remains.

Minesh can you help me?

The thing is that we have another user who reported this issue and as per our findings the issue is from Elementor not from Toolset.

Could you please keep in touch with Elementor and ask them to help you on this and update us if they confirm the issue is from Toolset.

First, everything is up to date now. Second, the issue remains. Third, I can't see how this can be Elementor's fault because I'm actually not using Elementor with pages where the form is inserted.

The above ticket mention same bug as you reported:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function get_component() on null in 

He confirms that it's fixed with Elementor version 2.3.2.

I do see you have cache and redirection plugins installed. Could you please check by disabling all cache and try to resolve your issue.

Ok thank you but 7GB size is a lot and I dont know when I will be able to download it so I will login to your site and try to download the copy of your site without Media folder etc..etc.. so I will have smaller file size to download.

I hope this sounds good and you dont have any issue with that. I will keep you updated.
