I have the same mistake.

I have the same mistake.

I am having this same issue. What version of PHP does Page Builder work with?

I am on the line with InMotion Hosting. They upgraded my platform to EasyApache 4 and PHP 5.3

I can no longer access any of my SP Page Builder pages. Please help.

Interestingly enough, you are correct. Disabling the SEF makes the link work in the backend to frontend Editor.

My issue is that I want to have the SEF enabled. Is this something that Joomshaper techs are working on???

For my website:
Unpublish JCH
Clean cache
and it works fine...

I was having the same issue. If you are forcing HTTPS that's the problem. It was for me anyway. I turned off Force https and it worked. That needs to be fixed as google now requires https.

Apparently that is also my issue. I have switched to SSL so that I am now https:// and have a redirect. However, I have read that one should not re-write the php.configuration $live site line. I'm at a loss. I can get in the front end to edit by logging in on the front end, but it would be nice to be able to edit through the backend pagebuilder.

Hi there, You can edit backend from Joomla administrator area. Did you try? And is there any problem. Thanks

Hi there,

First of all, Thank you so much for this kind of tips for all of our users. Every user should check these points before posting on our forum. Also, the User should check the third-party plugins.

Some other points should check.
1. PHP version
2. Third party extensions
3. Memory limit (depends on hosting)
4. Shared hosting blocked resource from mod_security
5. Console error check from the browser inspect element
6. Should check the Joomla default Template

-Thanks

I tried this per the blog and it destroyed my links. I had to turn of the "rewriting" or none of my links work.

It's the hoster.
i still have the problem. i don't know where the mistake is.
now i am building the homepage on my localhost.

Do you use Admintools on the site? It can cause these issues if the security is too tight.

Uncommenting rewritebase in .htaccess fixed it for me. Before you do so, ensure you use the htaccess that was supplied with Joomla. It is called htaccess.txt and you rename it (or copy it) to .htaccess and then edit it.

This is AN ONGOING ISSUE.

Turn Search Engine Friendly URL's OFF and Front end editing works fine.
Turn it on - and you get the 404 page not found error

the link becomes /edit/3 (or whatever the ID is)... and it just fails.

this really really needs to get fixed.

I didn't read the post carefully, but I can remember having this when I used a plugin code tag inside like {rsform 4} which results in non editeble frontend..

"Uncaught ReferenceError: initialState is not defined"

Hello,

same issue on my site.
No Frontend-editing possible anymore and js-error:

"Uncaught ReferenceError: initialState is not defined"

already checked:
- turn off all caching and caching plugins
- clean all caches
-disabling SEF and htaccess usage
- usage of original htaccess
- disabling Gzip
- used chrome and firefox for tests

PHP-Version: 7.2.22-he.0
no CDN
no rocket Loader

Admintools:
What I need to do if I use admintools in the free basic version? (.. see comment one month ago regarding admintools)

best regards,
Frank

I totally agree. Spend some time fixing issues that exist instead of continuing to produce more templates.

Same situation over here. Even Toufiq was in the backend of the site and could't fix it!!

Still waiting for a fix after install the last release (3.6.2), but JoomShaper just ignore the comments of those of us that can't fix through the suggested "work arounds". WORK AROUNDs are NOT a real fix! However, I tried all the suggestions and nothing worked neither.

Only disabling SEF works, but then you have a site with horrible URLs! That's not a fix for a modern website!!!

The real problem is in the root code of PB. It's an issue with the edit links that PB generate to the frontend edit.

PBuilder generate an edit link to: http://website.com/page/edit/PageNumber, when should send to http://website.com/component/sppagebuilder/?view=form&layout=edit&tmpl=component&id=pagenumber.

Can we expect a real solution?

Is there a real solution being proposed instead of asking everyone to give you administrator access ?

Hi there, Most of the time, This problem occurred for the third-party extension and server problem. That's why we need to check & you can check also by yourself. Thanks

Hi Toufic you are great guy wanting your customer the best.

I think it would be good to explain for all people what real world server problem(s) and also bad 3pds causing this annoying issue even it could be different causes for these problems.

Maybe do a blog about it and problem solving tips.

For me it stopped working after following the tutorial for SEO and enabled "Use URL Rewriting". URL Rewriting works fine on my end but everything else breaks with SP Page Builder.

Dear Toufiq,

I must apologize as you were entirely correct. It was the configuration of my apache server that was not taking into consideration the htaccess file. In this regard, it might be useful to provide a little bit more guidance for other users so they can avoid having the same issues. Just my two cents. Sorry again for disturbing!

For my website:
Unpublish JCH
Clean cache
and it works fine...

For my website:
Unpublish JCH

I was able to keep JCH published by adding the following URL:
/index.php?option=com_sppagebuilder

into the JCH plugin under: Exclude Options / Exclude menu items / Exclude urls

After the last update today the icons are not shown in function box

with and without JotCache there are icons.

Today I got the update. The problem is still there.

Testet without JCH, JOTCache, Compress-Functions

When we get the sp cookie consent for EU. It is still version 1.0. In the forum you wrote, we get an update for the european union (confirm).

I too have this issue. I have many Joomla 3 sites on my ONE server and PB works well on all EXCEPT one.

using the Doctor template
They all run PHP 7.3
Joomla 3.9.14
Cache is cleared in Joomla and the browser

It USED to work a few months ago but now front page editing is completely broken .... a blank page in both Safari and Firefox.

I have another medical site I built at the same time and it works fine in the front end.

I have two plugins and I have tried disabling both .... no success
I have disabled Joomla SEF .... no success
I have installed Helix Ultimate template .... no success

Can I pm someone at support to take a look please ?

Thanks

Attached the errors shown by developer console when front end editor hangs.
WAMP Server
PHP 7.3.1
Joomla 3.9.14

Any hint?

Best regards

Toufiq, can I load the site (actually on WAMP Server) on a temporary web server and send administrator access to you to try to solve the problem?

Just sent access by PM

Many thanks Toufiq!

Hi

I have the same problem but it's weird the issue stays when adding some addons to the pages after its not possible to edit them . Restoring the initial state of page and its working again so please find the issue because its very annoying bug.

hello also the frontend editor does not work for me, it loads the page with the correct right column, but it doesn't load the preview of the page to be modified, there is only the logo that turns.
From the browser console it gives me an error in the javascript code of the engine.js file (see attached screen).

I have tried with multiple browsers (Mozilla, Chrome and Edge) but I have the same problem

could you help me

I'm experiencing the problem reported here for only one page, in which I can't edit the page in any way.
I just sent you a PM with credentials.

We're still in trouble . We need an urgent solution for our case.

But when I am checking in Microsoft Edge browser, every thing is working fine.

Please help us ASAP to get it solve.

Hi @Toufiq,

we are experiencing the same problem with Frontend Editor and we are using Folcomedia Plugin use cookies alert. We need such a plugin to comply with GDPR, but we also need the Frontend Editor for editors to maintain the page.
What's the best solution to have a cookie plugin and the Frontend Editor working? Could this behaviour be fixed in SP Page Builder or in Folcomedia Plugin use cookies alert? Is there an alternative cookies plugin which works with the Frontend Editor? Are there maybe Cookies needed by Frontend Editor which could be excluded from being blocked in a cookies plugin?

Thanks a lot, best regards,
Stefan

Hi there, When you will go to the work for the front end, then you should disable the plugin. After finishing work you can enable. Thanks
