Beaver Builder + LiveReload causing page refresh errors when editing.

Beaver Builder
1

I’m using LiveReload (http://livereload.com) to refresh my site while I do some front end theme development and it seems to conflict somehow with Beaver Builder. While the script is active in the header of the site, the page enters some sort of refresh loop while making edits in Beaver Builder.

Disabling the script and/or turning off LiveReload fixes the issue right away. But obviously this is less than ideal since I tend to bounce back and forth between editing the theme and working my layout in Beaver Builder.

Anyone else experience an issue like this, or have any idea how I might work around it? If it’s at all helpful, the LiveReload script is below:

<script>document.write(’<script src=“http://’ + (location.host || ‘localhost’).split(’:’)[0] + ':35729/livereload.js?snipver=1”></’ + ‘script>’)</script>

Spoke too soon, I guess. I think I figured it out, but I’ll leave this here in case it’s helpful for others. It seems that Beaver Builder writes to a cache folder in wp-uploads during editing. Apparently this was driving LiveReload crazy, and excluding the directory seems to fix the issue right-away. :slight_smile:
