The plugin seemed fine and I used it to create custom menu items for my websites headers and footers. v\Very happy with the results until complaints came in that blocks of buttons had stopped working on some pages. On investigation, I found that blocks of 4 or 5 buttons in adjacent columns were not working. The outer buttons worked fine, but any inner button (i.e. it had another button in the columns either side of it) would work once and then stop responding until the page was reloaded. In addition some page sections became unselectable to edit in Elementor. Very quickly it became apparent that this problem was universal to all blocks on all pages! I disabled the plugin and everything came back to work fine! luckily, it was the only change I had made in recent days, so the likely culprit was relatively obvious. I am guessing there is a compatibility issue with current version of Elementor.
