Allow to use more than 50 Global Classes (remove the limit)

[aksellno]

Description

How many global classes are supported? I am setting up a brand new site and am reaching the limit. In the latest YouTube video Roi is stating 100s of classes. But it seems like the global limit is 50. At least when I try to save anything at all if I have created a new class right now, I get an error 400 because the global class limit is reached.

Agreement

• I confirm I have read and followed the Editor V4 Discussion Form guidelines, and agree this discussion may be closed without warning.

Yes I have hit the 50 limit too. I really hope that is temporary or can be overriden because it will be a major problem otherwise.

[charles-emes]

The limit of 50 classes seems to be an artificial one - I would guess to maintain performance. There was a similar limitation on dynamic tags in the display conditions settings. In that case Elementor provided a workaround with a code snippet.

maybe they'll remove the limitation in pro version, and for non-pro users they add a new big red popup saying they should pay money 😂.

FYI, there is no such a thing as HTML limit or performance thing regarding adding how many classes or attributes. It's just a text, nothing fancy.

Hi @charles-emes!

Thank you for joining the discussion and sharing your feedback! 🙏

There is indeed a limit of 50 Global Classes you can create, but rest assured this limit is temporary during the Alpha phase of development as we test our infrastructure and components. This limit was added to prevent compatibility issues in case we need to introduce breaking changes to this component during this phase.

Once we are sure everything is working correctly and move to the next phase, we will change this limit to allow for users to add more classes.

I hope this clears your concerns.

Kind regards

While this global limit is in place in this Alpha phase, could we get a clear error message instead of the whole editor breaking with an error 400 when we reach that "milestone"?

Hi @aksellno ,

we are aware of the 400 error, and are investigating it. Meanwhile, we suggest reloading the editor.

Please note there is an error message indicating you reached your limit as you can see in the screenshot below:

Thanks for raising this concern! 🙏

Hey @aksellno!

We have great news! 🙌

We just released version 3.32.0-beta1 with a fix to the Global Class limit issue you've raised! 💪

There is still a limit for now, but you shouldn't have any problems saving the current document if you reach this limit! 😉

Try it out and let us know if it works for you! 🙏

Kind regards

Hey @aksellno!

We just increased the class limit to 100 with the release of v3.33.0-beta4! 🙌

One step closer to release! 💪

If the new editor is now ready for production websites then I think this limit should be removed. It is a big constraint.

[aksellno]

I totally agree with @hking1991, there is no reason to have a hard limit on the number of global classes. And several have also commented a way to group global classes and maybe also import classes from different websites or generators.

[hking1991]

This still hasn't been addressed in the latest update which is disappointing @nicholaszein - when can we expect this to be lifted?
