Classic elements acting weird, difficult to edit

[cdbehrle]

Have not been on my site in a little bit - however all is up to date - just a recent issue.

I am simply trying to add 2 new images to a gallery in a page that was set up along time ago in classic elements.

I managed to add the images and went in to try and clean up some spacing - But the only way I can actually access the elements properly is in the wireframe mode (sorry I do not know what it is properly called - but it it the mode where each element is shown in order by name “raw content” “gap” etc. This is because these separate elements are not showing up in regular cornerstone mode. I tried to duplicate a gap element and it became greyed out- so I bailed without saving since I have no idea what greyed out means!

I am not trying to do any big changes- I just wanted to add a duplicate gap above and below an existing button. But it is impossible to isolate classic elements in the standard cornerstone view!

I really don’t want to get into re designing a stupid simple page because the elements are not accessible in regular cornerstone mode. Can you help?

Also - If I accidentally click “edit in cornerstone” on a page that was NOT created in cornerstone - HOW the HECK can I get it back so it does not have to be edited in cornerstone???

Is there a simple way to change classic elements to newer elements should these odd issues continue???

Thanks for your help

Hi,

1. If you only need classic elements, you may disable all v2 elements under X > Settings

2. If you accidentally clicked edit in cornerstone, you can go back to your pages and edit the pages again. Then you can click on either visual or text tab.

But if you have clicked saved while in Cornerstone, the page will be replaced with cornerstone data and you can no longer go back unless you have a backup of the page.

Thanks

Thanks, I guess that helps- I am using both classic and v2 elements, and I am having a problem with how classic elements appear in preview.

this is same in the wireframe- only here can you isolate the image galleries and buttons

Here is the page itself
I am just trying to add more spacing around the button that is between the 2 galleries

Hi @cdbehrle,

It seems to be appearing okay, except for gallery since they aren’t integrated to the builder (the same way slider, essential grids, and more are integrated). As for the button, since it’s a classic element, you’ll have to add the space through Style input manually.

Thanks!
