editor element live preview

I’ve done a hard reload many times now. The new preview is there, but it won’t save and the section editor won’t close. This wasn’t an issue until the update… Now I can’t edit my sites.

EDIT – This seems to only be affecting the text block and icon box editors….may be more. Again, if I hit “save”, nothing happens. If I try to just close the editor box, it won’t close. Assuming there is a script error on that.

I too am having this issue (Looks like many people are). Is there a solution? Also, where can I find the 3.x.x (Recent release) version of Enfold to download?

Thanks!

I have tried all of that. The issue persists. Dev tools still points to avia-modal.js as the issue. Until there is a fix and the option to disable the preview pane is there, I likely won’t be updating my sites.

Hello, I’m having the same/similar issue. The Text Block element has no Visual or Text tab so I can’t switch back and forth to edit inline CSS, if needed. Clicking on the save button, or close icon, does nothing. The Text Block editor stays open.. All that can be done is to leave the page and reopen it for editing, but no changes are saved.

I’ve determined it is not a caching issue as we host on WP Engine and caching is not available on the staging site.

Our deadline to finish this site is rapidly approaching. We need to get this issue resolved as soon as possible. We are currently on WordPress 4.7.3 and Enfold 4.0.2. I offer any help I can, to help resolve this.

Thanks…

Editing a page or an article, I also am seeing the PREVIEW ELEMENT on half screen.
I’m used typing in full screen pages, but the extention does’nt work.
Please, how can I exclude the PREVIEW ELEMENT?
Intersting feature, but not always useful.
Thanks.

My entire team, as well as partners at other marketing agencies were talking about the Enfold ‘upgrade’ today and all wonder why this preview feature was added? Was it requested? Is it really that handy? Does it really work? Are previews accurate? (background doesn’t load, so not really that helpful IMO)

Considering the fact that this was a major version change with a new learning curve to the backend and a lot of screen real estate being dedicated to a feature that is not necessarily welcome by all, I also would LOVE to know how to turn the new Preview feature off not only my login, but for the entire team…is there a disable in the functions.php or somewhere else that can toggle it?

hello

wp-content/themes/enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/textblock.php

i have replace to

function shortcode_insert_button()
{
$this->config[‘name’] = __(‘Text Block’, ‘avia_framework’ );
$this->config[‘tab’] = __(‘Content Elements’, ‘avia_framework’ );
$this->config[‘icon’] = AviaBuilder::$path[‘imagesURL’].”sc-text_block.png”;
$this->config[‘order’] = 100;
$this->config[‘target’] = ‘avia-target-insert’;
$this->config[‘shortcode’] = ‘av_textblock’;
$this->config[‘tinyMCE’] = array(‘disable’ => true);
$this->config[‘tooltip’] = __(‘Creates a simple text block’, ‘avia_framework’ );
// $this->config[‘preview’] = “large”;
}

it’s not work

Element Preview still in there.

I also noticed the issue that I can’t edit text elements. I found that it comes when I checked in my user profile the checkbox “do not use the visual editor” (“Visuellen Editor nicht benutzen”). If this ist activated, I cannot save and close any text element in the layout builder. I helped myself for the moment by unchecking this and switching manually to text mode each time.

While that lil trick does hide the preview pane and it should be really easy for you guys to add an if toggle in the code to enable/disable, it still doesn’t fix the main issue…..you cannot close the editor modal. So….site still dead for updates.

It isn’t a plugin or custom mod. It is safe to say most users don’t have the visual editor turned off. The only plugin running is woocommerce. There are no other custom mods. As has been pointed out, it is an issue with the avia-modal.js file. When the visual editor for WordPress is disabled in the WordPress settings, any of the Enfold boxes with text areas cannot close.

Again…this isn’t a plugin or mod issue. It is an Enfold issue. Regarding the preview pane, just give us an option to disable it. If I have to have the visual editor for WordPress turned on and have to have the Enfold preview pane taking up space, then what’s the point? That’s basically two WYSIWYGs right there.
