By Webcraft Plugins Ltd.

When you use the shortcode widget (and sometimes the text widget) to insert the shortcodes of this plugin, you can hardly edit or delete them in Elementor.

Heartbeat Control

By WP Rocket

Elementor works with the HeartBeat API of WordPress. This plugin may disrupt the functioning of Elementor according to the value chosen.

The plugin does not use the API of WordPress to query the database. As a matter of fact, this plugin can corrupt the JSON data of Elementor and this can lead to fatal errors.
