    Hi,

    My Elementor templates are being automatically injected with hundreds of etheme_conditions_* meta fields (date conditions, browser/OS conditions, login status, user role, etc.). I never enabled these conditions.

    This is causing:

    Frontend fatal error: Call to a member function get_name() on null (ElementorPro\ThemeBuilder\Single_Base.php:162)

    “Elementor Unhandled Error” in the editor

    Templates not applying

    Sidebar appearing on my homepage and other pages unexpectedly

    Elementor widgets not rendering because conditions never match

    These conditions appear directly in the _elementor_data JSON for my templates, even after recreating them. I cannot find a theme option to disable “Show/Hide Conditions” globally, but the markup suggests the Etheme Conditional Display system is still active.

    Please advise how to:

    Disable all Etheme conditional logic globally, OR

    Bulk remove all etheme_conditions_* fields from my templates, OR

    Prevent these keys from being injected into Elementor JSON automatically.

    This is breaking Elementor’s template rendering and the page/sidebar layout system.

    Thank you.

    Please, contact administrator

    Hello @Niddy,

    Regarding your request about the fatal error on the frontend, please note that it is not caused by the ‘etheme_conditions’ meta field but by other issues. For reference, you can review the following topic with a similar request: https://www.8theme.com/topic/issue-with-the-elementor-editor-when-using-xstore-core-after-the-latest-update/. This issue has already been resolved globally in our latest updates.

    We have checked the issue on your staging website but did not encounter it on any of the pages. Could you please provide more details on how we can reproduce it on your website? Screenshots or videos would be very helpful. As a possible solution, you can try activating all widgets in the Elements Manager (https://elementor.com/help/element-manager/) and then check again.

    Regarding the ‘etheme_conditions_’ meta field, this field is saved by default with a default value. This approach was implemented after receiving reports from several customers about conflicts between our built-in conditions and caching plugins. Saving a default value has proven to be an effective solution to prevent such issues.

    Best regards,

    Hi it isn’t pages. It’s POSTS.

    Edit a post with elementor. The bottom 2 in the list are set with elementor. You’ll see.

    Thanks.

    Hello @Niddy,

    Thank you for the details. We have checked the post editor and identified the reported issue – Error 500 (https://prnt.sc/AjOBEgCwJzrQ). After activating all widgets as suggested in our previous reply (https://www.8theme.com/topic/elementor-templates-are-being-automatically-injected-with-hundreds-of-etheme_conditions_-meta-field/#post-459974), the editor loaded correctly (https://prnt.sc/8GDY0vbhwmxg).

    This indicates that the issue with loading the Single Post editor was related to certain specific widgets being disabled. These widgets are used within your single post content, and their deactivation caused Elementor to trigger an error.

    You can now check the Single Post editor. Once you have completed your editing across the website, please click “Scan elements usage” in the Elements Manager (https://prnt.sc/AHHF_pxC6KLc) to identify and deactivate any unused widgets. This will help optimize your website by preventing unnecessary widgets from loading.

    Best regards,
