• I have searched for similar features requests in both open and closed tickets and cannot find a duplicate.
• The feature is still missing in the latest stable version of Elementor ( Elementor Pro )

What problem is your feature request going to solve? Please describe.

Hi, I am experiencing an unwanted interaction between Elementor (or related) plugins and the Staatic plugin (publishes a static version of site) which we have in our wordpress installation.

Staatic has a feature where after a page or post edit, it will crawl the updated page and push a static version of the page to separate storage. However, what we are seeing is that after one clicks “Update” in the Elementor editor, the staatic publish fires but it is somehow fetching a stale version of the content (i.e. how it was before the edit/update).

According to the staatic plugin developers, the publish is triggered by the post_updated wordpress action. Does the Elementor plugin somehow result in this action being fired before the page/post is fully updated?

FWIW, we have no caching plugins installed, but aside from the staatic plugin and Elementor itself, we have some Elementor-based plugins – elementor-pro, powerpack-elements, the-plus-addons-for-elementor-page-builder, theplus_elementor_addon, ultimate-elementor, unlimited-elements-for-elementor-premium – in case that matters.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to know why the post_updated actions fires before the post appears to be updated.
