Yes, I know, several people having the same problem, but I haven’t seen anyone posting a solution, so I want to put extra focus on this. I’m using Beaver Builder lite because it came required for WPZOOM’s Inspiro theme, so I can’t create a support ticket.

I created all pages 6 months ago, and everything was great, and now I can’t edit anything on any page at all. When I click “open in beaver builder”, it’s just the page that loads, as a visitor would see it – there’s no editor interface for me.

I have tried everything mentioned here:  
[https://kb.wpbeaverbuilder.com/article/32-troubleshooting-cant-open-page-in-beaver-builder](https://kb.wpbeaverbuilder.com/article/32-troubleshooting-cant-open-page-in-beaver-builder)

Thanks for replying! Yes, I disabled all the plugins – no effect.  
I flushed the cache, and tried in Mozilla and Firefox on two different computers.

Thanks,

Is there a JS error in the browser console?

I don’t know… maybe? This is what there is:

Nothing relevant there… is this shared hosting? Perhaps you are running out of memory. Have you checked your hosts error logs?

Unknown territory for me, I don’t really know about that. I doubt I’m running out of memory, it’s literally the same site I created six months ago, and there’s not a lot of data.

It’s on [one.com](http://one.com). They can’t help because Beaver is 3rd party

Ah `one.com` the vital clue.

Your webhost, [One.com](http://One.com) adds an htaccess file in the WP uploads directory that prevents any of our JS from loading.

The code looks like this:

```
# Block javascript except for visualcomposer (VC) plugin
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^.*wp-content/uploads/visualcomposer-assets/.*\.js$
RewriteRule ^(.*\.js)$ - [F,L]

```

That would need to be modified to allow our files to load as well or removed completely from the .htaccess file. Since [One.com](http://One.com) is the one that puts it there, they would be the best people to reach out to for assistance if you’re not sure how to edit the .htaccess file.

</div>

I talked to one .com, and they know nothing of that special code. My htaccess looks like this:

```auto

# BEGIN WordPress
# The directives (lines) between `BEGIN WordPress` and `END WordPress` are
# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

```

Thanks,

There’s this little dot here… does that mean anything?

In the **uploads** folder, not the main htaccess file, they add another one in the uploads folder.

OK, thanks.

In the meantime, I reinstalled everything, and it’s working now.

OK, I found the precise error.

Version 2.2.4.3 works fine.

If I follow the update recommendation and update to 2.3.1.1, it stops working and I can’t edit anything.

Thanks,

OK, that’s NOT the precise error… looks like some cross reffed version incompatibility. Because now it doesn’t work again. I’ll write again when I have something more accurate.

This issue happens to me from time to time as well. I don’t know what alleviates the problem, or why it comes back now and again. I’m currently in the phase where it is Not working, which is supremely annoying.
