I have a big problem: I have updated to WordPress 4.6 and I can no longer use/access the Advanced Layout Editor. Randomly it will either show a spinning wheel (loading indication) but nothing happens or I select the Advanced Layout Editor and nothing happens (not even a spinning wheel).
I have tried re-installing WP 4.6, tried de-activating all plugins, tried renaming the entire plugin directory via FTP but the problem is still there.
Would you happen to know what I can try next to solve this issue?
August 23, 2016 at 4:52 pm #676541Hi,
I have the exact same issue.
Would be very grateful for a solution
August 23, 2016 at 8:54 pm #676661I just found out that the problem seems to be isolated to Pages. With all plugins activated the advanced layout editor is working fine in Posts.
@globalgreenconsultancy: does the advanced layout builder work for you in Posts but not in Pages?August 23, 2016 at 9:00 pm #676663Hi winnieandbuzz,
Thanks for your reply. Yea it works in posts but no pages. I wonder what is the best solution?
August 23, 2016 at 9:08 pm #676667Looking at some other recently opened topics we’re not the only ones having this issue.
August 23, 2016 at 9:26 pm #676676Hi!
@winnierandbuzz I loaded your web site and I could see the pages when editing.
can you let us know a spesific one you could not use, so we can review it properly?Thanks a lot
Best regards,
BasilisAugust 23, 2016 at 9:51 pm #676685Hi, sure. Pages send in private section. The advanced layout editor does not work when I add a new page either.
You mentioned you could see the Pages. Do you mean you could use the advanced layout builder?I tried multiple browsers (safari, chrome, firefox) with complete cache refresh but none worked…

August 24, 2016 at 7:25 pm #677199While waiting for Kriesi to respond: did anyone meanwhile found a solution?
August 25, 2016 at 5:30 pm #677683Hi,
Please try following the suggestions listed here: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/my-enfold-layout-builder-is-not-loading-properly/
In you should ever have problems in the future then please start new threads and include admin login details in private, otherwise it’s very difficult for moderators to give you personal help and to check the problems on your specific site.
Thanks,
RikardAugust 25, 2016 at 5:37 pm #677686Hi Rikard, thanks for replying. I did try all the suggestions at and I have provided login details in my opening post.
Some others joined this thread as they are having the exact same issues and apparently none of the suggested solutions worked out (at least not for me). I tried other posted solutions as well that I found in other recently opened topics but no luck.
Could you please take a look at my website and see if there is another solution then the ‘standard’ ones?
August 25, 2016 at 10:09 pm #677766I got it working again. Here’s what I did (but do please note that things might work differently at your hosting provider) and please only do this if you know what you’re doing as you will delete your whole database!
versions: WP 4.6 and Enfold version 3.7.1 with child theme
1) made a full back up of the database by exporting a full dump in Plesk
2) in phpMyAdmin I dropped all tables (again: this will delete everything so use with care!)
3) in phpMyAdmin I imported the full SQL dump created in step 1
4) logged on to the website: Advanced Layout Builder is working fine in all places (Posts, Pages, Portfolio Items) tested on iMac Safari and Firefox and working on iPad
5) Activated all plugins at once: Advanced Layout Builder still working.For me this seems to work (let’s hope it still works in a couple of days) and maybe this works for you as well.
UPDATE Aug 27: all still working fine for me after many use

August 30, 2016 at 4:54 am #679255Hi,
@winnieandbuzz: I’m not sure how and why that method fixed the issue but I don’t think users experiencing the same issue should follow it because it’s a bit too risky. Anyway, thanks for sharing.Best regards,
IsmaelAugust 30, 2016 at 9:29 am #679291@ismael; I fully agree, my fix is not for the faint-hearted. Another fix that seems to work is creating another admin profile.
August 31, 2016 at 7:32 pm #680293Hi,
I have a similar though slightly different problem: the advanced layout does not load on existing posts but it can be loaded for creating new ones. I tried deactivating as many as plugins I could but still. It seems like an ‘exhaustion’ of resources to me. At what level? I’m not sure. Any ideas?September 2, 2016 at 6:32 am #681133Hi @Antonia,
Please open a new thread and include admin login details in private so that we can have a closer look.
Regards,
RikardJanuary 20, 2017 at 9:53 am #736308I’m having the same problem in posts and pages. I either get nothing or a dial spinning where the editor should be.
This is on Enfold 3.7.1 and WP 4.7.1
All plugins are deactivated – makes no difference.
Switched from FireFox to Chrome – no differnce
My Enfold options panel insists I have the most current version of Enfold installed…. I see that I do not.
So why does it say that? Ugh.
Hopefully themeforest has the latest version for me to download.
Frustrated the auto update feature doesn’t work.
I was able to get the latest version & installed it & the functions are back!!
Thanks for all the great documentation and forum help.
You guys are the BEST!

January 21, 2017 at 6:43 am #736714January 21, 2017 at 7:08 am #736725Hi @Rikard – thanks!! Yes I did. I don’t know why the auto update wouldn’t update to 3.8+ (latest version) it was stuck on 3.7 – whatever and when I did “manual check” it said I had the latest version of the theme.
I had to install the latest version manually – I hope that fixes it & it will auto update again.
