A timeout error, when trying to update a website on WordPress using Elementor, can occur due to several reasons.
One of the most common reasons is a slow or unresponsive server. When you make changes to your website, Elementor sends requests to the server to save those changes. If the server takes too long to respond, Elementor may time out, resulting in a timeout error.
Another reason could be a conflict with other plugins or themes installed on your WordPress site. Sometimes, plugins or themes may conflict with Elementor, causing it to timeout when trying to save changes.
Additionally, if you are working with a large and complex page on Elementor, it may take longer to save changes, and if the server or the browser takes too long to respond, Elementor may time out.
To fix a timeout error, when trying to update a website on WordPress using Elementor, you can try the following steps:
- Increase the PHP memory limit and maximum execution time on your server.
- Deactivate other plugins temporarily and try saving your changes on Elementor again to see if there’s a conflict with other plugins.
- Check your internet connection and try clearing your browser cache.
- If you are working with a large and complex page on Elementor, try breaking it down into smaller sections and save changes incrementally.
