Hi
It is possible that disabling and re-enabling plugins, including Elementor, may have caused your drafts to be deleted. When you disable a plugin, any data associated with that plugin may also be disabled or removed, including drafts.
However, it is also possible that there may be other factors at play that caused your drafts to be deleted. For example, if your website has a cache plugin or optimization plugin enabled, it may have cleared the cache or optimized your database, which could have resulted in the deletion of your drafts.
To prevent this from happening in the future, it is a good idea to regularly save a backup of your website and its data, including your drafts. You can use a backup plugin or service to automate this process.
If you have a backup of your website, you may be able to restore a previous version of your About page that contains your drafts. Alternatively, you can try reaching out to Elementor’s support team for assistance in recovering your drafts.

I think I may have a backup saved with the draft. However, I’m unable to restore my backups currently (I’m working with softacalous support to fix that). Where would the draft data be stored? Maybe I could just copy and paste the file into my current installation.
I have free Elementor so they don’t provide support (to my knowledge)..
Hi
To find where drafts are stored into database you will have to be directed to our GitHub project, where our developers will be able to assist. Kindly note that our GitHub project is not a support channel; therefore, the response times may vary. We appreciate your understanding.
