When I try to edit a page with Elementor editor, I don't see the content of the page or post. I just see the elementor Widgets panel, Sections Nav, header and footer.

When I desactivate Views plugin it works again.

Hello,

I have tried the credential you provide above, but can only see 403 error message:

Please check these in your website:
1) deactivate all other plugins, and switch to WordPress default theme 2021, and test again
2) check if there is any PHP/JS error in your website:

3) If the problem still persists, please a copy of your website, you can put the package files in your own google drive disk, share the link only, also point out the problem page URL, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

I can duplicate the problem with your duplicator package, it seems to be a compatibility issue with plugin "Shortcode in Menus", after deactivate it, it works fine, see my screenshot sim.JPG

Can you confirm it? thanks

You're right, that was the problem.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Sorry, I tryed with another plugin that, instead of shortcode, add a widget to the menu, but I get same problem.

I see the problem is when a view is added at the header without the Elementor Views Widget. But is the only way I can do it. I add a list of categories under "Tiendas" and "Gastronomía" made with Views.

So when you edit a page or post with elementor, the header and the footer are also loaded at the editor, and that brakes it.

Is there a way to not load that specifics views when the elementor editor is active on pages and posts, except when editing header? Something like: At "body.elementor-editor-active" only load submenu views when "body.elementor-editor-active.elementor-editor-header"

The views are:
[wpv-view name="categorias-submenu-tiendas"] AT submenu id="sm-16378489007290461-2"
[wpv-view name="categorias-submenu-gastronomia"] AT submenu id="sm-16378489007290461-4"

For the new question:
Is there a way to not load that specifics views when the elementor editor is active on pages and posts, except when editing header?
There isn't such kind of built-in feature, if you need more assistance for it, please provide detail steps to reproduce the same problem.

What another plugin are you using? is it the same plugin "Shortcode in Menus"?
How and where do you put the view's shortcode into the header?

I need to duplicated the same problem and debug it in my localhost, thanks

Thanks for the details, I can see the problem with your duplicator package files, in this case, you need to avoid using post body shortcode [wpv-post-body] in both taxonomy view, for example:
Edit both taxonomy views "CATEGORIAS SUBMENU GASTRONOMIA" and "CATEGORIAS SUBMENU TIENDAS"
hidden link
hidden link

in section "Loop Editor", you just need to replace [wpv-post-body ...] shortcode with term link shortcode:
[wpv-taxonomy-link]
Save both taxonomy views and test again, it works fine in my localhost with your duplicator package.
