What is the problem with the Elementor 3.0 update?
In an admirable effort to clean up the DOM, Elementor 3.0 update ended up removing 3 major wrappers: .elementor-inner – main document wrapper, .elementor-row – section wrapper, and .elementor-column-wrap – column wrapper.
This dramatic change has been dubbed “potentially breaking”. Simply put, this Elementor 3.0 update may cause major problems with the styles of the elements made in Elementor.
Therefore, please don’t update your Elementor based site until your WordPress Theme gets a proper update. We currently have 100+ Elementor WordPress themes and we immediately proceed to update all of them one-by-one, so they are 100% compatible with the new version of this WordPress page builder.
