Elementor - Custom permalink structure causes “The Content Area Was Not Found” error when opening a landing page

Resolved

Reported for: WPML Multilingual CMS 4.5.0

Resolved in: WPML Multilingual CMS 4.5.9

Overview of the issue

If you are working with Elementor and using a custom permalink structure like /%category%/%postname%/, you will not be able to edit pages created by going to Templates → Landing Pages. Instead, you see the following error message: “Sorry, the content area was not found in your page.”

Workaround

Our developers are aware of it, and they are working on it. In the meantime and if your project allows it, you can use another permalink structure such as Post Name.
