Hi Kim, thanks a lot. I've heard about the difference between these two editors but I had not got the chance to analyze them till now. Your explanation is quite exhaustive and comprehensive.
However, the problem I'm having right now (as you can see in the attached screenshot) has to do with "light/illegible/blurred words of the sidebars, or do I say widgets? Please need your help with that.
Thanks. Have a great weekend!
P.S.: I have followed you!

Hi

Is this has to do with mobile view and elementor, that's a possible solution.

No, it affects my whole website (as you can see on the screenshot). Thanks for the links. I've to go through the one related to websites and see if it will solve the problem. I can see some coding there which would make it difficult. I wonder why technical support even failed to solve this long-time problem. They also always sent me links. So much for "building your website for you!" this hurts, you know.
Thanks once again.

You can always ask site support for a previous version of your site before this issue happened.

Good Morning Kim,

That is a very useful lesson, thank you.
I have not thought yet about changing the color of my text as I did not find any need for it. But you never know what might happen in the future so I will save your lesson in my file.

Greetings from the south of Spain, Taetske
