Hi @Davidvlv your appending the layers outside the "gjs" div element so you can see that when you remove the grapesjs editor (with the remove button) the layers panel stills there because like you're doing it you're separating the editor from the layers. What you can do is empty the div "layers" after click in the remove button to fix the remove function. Also if you do not want the layers panel to repeat I think you need to call the remove function before the add function.

Thanks @RJCAM , I can see how to patch it. The issue is that this was not the previous behaviour before I upgraded from 0.15.3 to 0.16.18 - it used to handle appendTo fine when re-initializing. So I am still of the opinion that this is a bug introduced sometime and should be fixed.
