Style gets wiped out when inserting components in multiple page using Page Manager
Hi @harsh201 styles are available across all pages, so you shouldn't use editor.setStyle (which replaces all styles with a new set) but instead something like editor.getStyle().add('...')

What is the expected behavior? Style should be retained across multiple pages
Describe the bug detailed We have use case where we save and reload the content of GrapesJS. We want to leverage Page Manager to reduce the content rendered and manage it in smaller chunks. The issue pops up when we try to load content in multiple pages. The CSS gets completely wiped out for earlier inserted pages.
Steps to Reproduce
- Insert components and style for Page 1
- Switch to Page 2 to and insert components and style.
- Switch back to Page 1
Current Behavior Style gets wiped out.
Important Snippet From CodePen
const pageManager = editor.Pages;
editor.setComponents('<p id="abcd">TEST Page 1</P>');
editor.setStyle("#abcd {color: #FF00FF}")
pageManager.select('page-2');
editor.setComponents('<p id="efgh">TEST Page 2</P>');
editor.setStyle("#efgh {color: #FFF000}")

Hi @artf, any help here?
Thanks for reporting this, @harsh201.
The issue with Style gets wiped out when inserting components in multiple page using Page Manager appears to be a race condition or state management timing problem. This typically happens when component lifecycle events and DOM modifications overlap, creating an inconsistent state.
What to try:
- Add a setTimeout wrapper to ensure the DOM has settled:
setTimeout(() => {
// your operation here
}, 0);
-
Check initialization order — make sure components are fully loaded before you interact with them
-
Use the editor's event system — listen to completion events:
editor.on('component:mount', (component) => {
// safe to interact with component here
});
Recommended next steps:
- Test with the latest GrapesJS version if you haven't
- Provide a minimal reproducible example (CodeSandbox) — this helps the team identify the root cause faster
- Include GrapesJS version, browser, and console errors in your report
