Method 1: Disable Flexbox Container (Already Done)

Since you mentioned that you’ve disabled Flexbox in Elementor Settings, but you’re unsure what else you did, try these additional steps:

Method 2: Change Back to Sections & Columns Mode

1. Go to Elementor Settings:
   • In your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Elementor → Settings.
   • Click on the Features tab.
   • Look for Flexbox Container (sometimes under “Experiment”).
   • Set it to Disable or Inactive.
   • Click Save Changes.
2. Regenerate CSS & Data:
   • Go to Elementor → Tools.
   • Under the General tab, click Regenerate CSS & Data.
   • Click Save Changes.
3. Use Sections & Columns in New Pages:
   • When adding a new section in Elementor, select “Classic Section” instead of “Container”.
   • If you still see the container-based layout, try editing existing pages manually and converting them to sections.

Alternative Fix: Rollback Elementor Version

If the new Flexbox container is causing issues and you want to revert to an older version:

1. Go to Elementor → Tools → Version Control.
2. Look for the Rollback Version option.
3. Choose an earlier version where containers were not the default.
4. Click Save Changes and Update.

After these steps, you should be back to the classic Section & Column grid system.
