[Juanjo]

Trying to place a content Area Modal element after update to 4.2.3 and wp 5.7 appears an error message:

'This element failed to render. Additiona error information may be found in your browser developer tools.

That’s the error that appeared in browser:
TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating ‘_.noConflict’)

I am having the same issue. Any update on when this patch release will likely be? At present I cannot edit any of the content modal areas in my site(s). Many thanks

Hi everyone,

I apologize we still don’t have a fix available for this. It has been corrected for the next release, but this won’t be available until Pro 4.3 and Cornerstone 5.3 which are coming out the first week of April.
