** Site crashing on pages with ECS

[gilles008]

Hi folks, we have a site's pages crashing with this error. We have the latest version of ECS free (Version 3.1.5) as well as ECS Pro on this site. Any ideas? NOTE: There are no errors when we roll back to ECS free version 3.14

Version 3.1.5 An error of type E_ERROR was caused in line 34 of the file /home/customer/www/domain-name/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/includes/admin-bar-menu.php. Error message: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function is_built_with_elementor() on bool in /home/customer/www/domain-name/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/includes/admin-bar-menu.php:34 Stack trace: #0 /home/customer/www/domain-name/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/skins/skin-custom.php(42): ECS_Admin_Bar_Menu::add_document('7380') #1 /home/customer/www/s_domain-name_public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/skins/skin-custom.php(393): ElementorPro\Modules\Posts\Skins\Skin_Posts_ECS->admin_bar_menu() #2 /home/customer/www/domain-name/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/skins/skin-custom.php(575): ElementorPro\Modules\Posts\Skins\Skin_Posts_ECS->render_loop_footer() #3 /home/customer/www/_domain-name_public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/includes/base/skin-base.php(79): ElementorPro\Modules\Posts\Skins\Skin_Posts_ECS->render() #4 /home/customer/www/domain-name/

Guys this version is for the latest elementor version. Elementor is moving some stuff around base and pro and that’s why the errors.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/ele-custom-skin/advanced/

scroll down until you see a drop down with all the previous versions.

[andredasilva]

Thank you guys!

[gilles008]

@dudaster Thanks for piping in. Users always appreciate it when devs show their involvement. Keep it up. :)

any idea as to when this will be fixed?

Hello?

[fabienlege]

+1 Same bug for me, Ele custom Skin completely break my website with this error ! All my plugins are up to date, including Elementor & Elementor pro.

Any news for a patch to this issue ?

[dudaster]

Working on it. Thanks for pointing it out!

[gilles008]

Greetings! Just flagging that this critical bug was reported over three weeks ago. What's the status? Can we have an ETA please? or should we move along to an alternate, supported plugin? No pressure but knowing the status what your intentions are would help us greatly. Cheers!

Hi everyone! Same error here..

Any news about this? Cheers!

[Frederic-C]

I hope a new version will be available soon. We are actually stuck with an old version of the plugin 🤞

[gilles008]

What gives? Is this bug being fixed? We purchased the Pro version and are hoping this issue will be dealt with. I think you'll agree we've all been very patient.

[AHDOnline]

Im glad I found this one to tag onto, I spent weeks getting a site ready to only have it stop working. Downgrading the plugins doesnt seem to work for me anymore.. lifetime Pro user.

[dudaster]

Please dezactivate Ele Custom Skin then update Elementor and Elementor Pro to the latest version than make sure Ele Custom Skin is updated to the latest version and than activate it. Let me know if it works!

[AHDOnline]

This made no difference to my issues.

[dudaster]

Can you please use the contact form of the website and and give me access to the admin to take a look?

[serna3]

I do this > Please dezactivate Ele Custom Skin then update Elementor and Elementor Pro to the latest version than make sure Ele Custom Skin is updated to the latest version and than activate it. Let me know if it works! and still doesn't work.

[Eroan]

Hi, same issue here !

Uncaught Error: Call to a member function is_built_with_elementor() on bool in /home/customer/www/domain-name/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ele-custom-skin/includes/admin-bar-menu.php:34

Ele Custom Skin 3.1.6 and latest Elementor + Elementor Pro.

[garylevansjr]

For anyone stuck on this issue, here is a dirty patch:

ON line 34 of /ele-custom-skin/includes/admin-bar-menu.php

REPLACE THIS

if ( ! \Elementor\Plugin::$instance->documents->get( $post_id )->is_built_with_elementor() ) {
			return '';
}

WITH THIS

if ( ! get_post_meta( $post_id, '_elementor_edit_mode', true ) ) {
			return '';
}

[gilles008]

@garylevansjr ... thanks so much for providing this temporary workaround.

@dudaster ... Why is this issue not being addressed? It has been almost four months since it was reported and there have been two releases which haven't addressed this debilitating problem.

What can we do to help you resolve this?

[bluantinoo]

Still no word from @dudaster ? this is really a huge issue! Anyone knows an alternative to ECS?

[dudaster]

@bluantino I've posted the reason you are getting the error. Just deactivate ECS. Update the Elementor first and then activate ECS.

This issue would be fixed in the next version.

[dudaster]

You can try it now also: ele-custom-skin.zip

[gilles008]

@dudaster ... The fix you recommend ("Update the Elementor first and then activate ECS.").. Did not work. Another user here also reported this back in June.

When is the next version coming? Cheers.

[aCiDeViL]

Is this problem fixed in the last update 3 days ago? It's safe now to update? Thank you.

[aCiDeViL]

I update and is working fine, no problem. Thank you.

[gilles008]

From my tests, It appears the version of ECS in the zip file download link in this thread works BUT.... The version in the WP plugin repository still contains the problem code. Is this correct?

[MeiUsername]

Is there still a known issue? Just update to Ele 3.1.7 and Elementor Pro 3.7.7 and getting a critical error on my site.

Would greatly appreciate any assistance!

Hello All! I have a site with the following:

Ele Custom Skin 3.1.6 Ele Custom Skin Pro 3.2.4 Elementor 3.8.1 Elementor Pro 3.8.2

Everything is up to date except for Ele Custom Skin. I'm getting the same error that others have mentioned in their posts - Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'ElementorPro\Modules\Posts\Skins\Skin_Posts_ECS' not found.

I realize that this is happening because Elementor is shifting around code between their base and pro versions. What is the current status of this on the ECS side? Is the only existing solution to avoid updating this plugin to the latest version? Advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
