It can lead to errors if it has a custom size but doesn\u2019t have a unique ID. Fix this by re-exporting the image with a unique ID or setting the width size in pixels (PX).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Themes can sometimes prevent changes from appearing \u2013 for instance if the theme CSS overrides the Elementor CSS. To check, switch to a default WordPress theme or the Elementor Hello theme. If it is a theme issue, contact the developers for assistance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, encountering issues after updating the version of <a  class=\"btl_autolink_hyperlink\"  href=\"https:\/\/mcstarters.com\/blog\/elementor-pro\"    target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Elementor Pro<\/a>\/free can be frustrating, but there&#8217;s no need to worry.
