I have been setting up my Elementor layouts locally and just tried to migrate everything to my staging server, but unfortunately half the layouts have fallen apart when viewed on staging.
I'm exporting the database using Migrate DB, to automate all the renaming, and it works fine for everything other than Elementor. It appears the shortcodes are being stripped out somehow, and half the content is missing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm really liking the plugin, it's been great to work with right up until this point, it's definitely the nicest page builder I've tested out so I hope this issue can be resolved.
Here are two screenshots to illustrate the difference between local and staging.
1. Local page layout
Here everything is in the right place, content structure is defined entirely by Elementor, and all separated nicely into individual modules/widgets.

2. Staging page layout
Here you can see most of the content is missing and everything left has been mashed together into one single module/widget.
