Hi situation has resolved itself. I guess a plugin update somewhere fixed things. I can now re-generate CSS and you can close this thread.

It is a live shop website, I can’t disable all of the plugins. Nothing would work.

Hey yeah there is an error. I’m blocking Jatpack from running somehow but I am not entirely sure why or how.

Thanks

Hi any movement on this issue?

it’s dmscycles.co.uk

Looks to have resolved itself overnight – note to all, regenerate CSS files and enact the fix link. It may well just need an overnight to sync “catch up.”

Hi David,

Thank you for contacting Elementor. I am Rakesh from Tier2 Customer Experience, and I’ll assist you today.

The PHP Warning on the front end of your website was generated from the Facebook for WooCommerce plugin itself, as one can read. So, they should check and fix this as they have better control over their code.

Custom Code, General WordPress issues, or third-party plugins/themes-related issues are out of our support scope. You can read more about our support scope here: https://elementor.com/help/how-do-i-get-premium-support/.

Usually, PHP Warnings or Notices don’t affect the working of the code. But those should be fixed to avoid real errors in the future.

The warnings or notices shouldn’t be printed on the front end. Your server printed it on the front end of your website because the PHP Error Reporting and display errors option was on.

I followed the below article to turn off error reporting in the front end.

I hope it helps.

Hi. Elementor support have been on my site overnight and have only been able to turn off the front end php warning. They’ve confirmed it’s an issue with the coding within the Facebook app and that it should be fixed from your end.

Hi Michelle thanks for getting in touch. So when its a clean slate my overall site score is in the medium-poor range. When I select the Optimise CSS option, I get a modest performance boost. Checking on Lighthouse confirms this, with performance improvements on both FCP & LCP.

When I turn on defer Javascript, the site performance score drops quite radically down, making the little pop out show which suggests I contact support. Checking on LH shows increases to FCP & LCP times. The weird thing is that LH shows drops in the amount of script processing time, but an overall worse performance score.

Lazy Load, I tend not to use, but as a tester, in conjunction with defer Javacript, it gave me the worst score of all with both mobile & desktop in the red, and a mobile score in single figures.

Today’s round of testing, just before I replied to you here, went slightly better, but still when I defer Java, I get an overall performance drop of around 13% compared to when only CSS optimise is selected, as you can see in the images.

Thanks for your assistance!

David.

I do apologise for that. I have opened a ticket via the correct channels.

Thanks.

Ok thanks for trying to assist. I have posted to the Elementor page and I’ll report back with what they have said.

If anyone is following this issue, you can read my post on the Elementor forum here.

I do not use any caching systems at all as I want my site up to the minute.

Ok so that did NOT work on the staging site. I disabled/re-enabled ALL plugins. On the live site, the error was back straight away. I rechecked on the staging site, and the error message has come back.

The only way I can make this error go away is if I:
-disable ONLY Facebook for WooCommerce
-OR disable Elementor
-OR Elementor Pro (or both E+Pro at the same time)

Not entirely comfortable with rolling back PHP versions, the outdated software could end up leading to other issues.

Ok.. So I deactivated all plugins after the issue was still present with Woo, Jetpack, Elementor, Elementor Pro active.

I then disabled all plugins entirely and turned them all back on again three at a time and the issue did not come back. I’ve removed the CSS which blocks the error text too, just to confirm that.

Just about to do a site backup and disable/re-enable all plugins on my live site.
