Blocks added in the footer lose styling when Elementor is activated

[irinelenache]

Description

Blocks added as footer widgets lose their styling when i activate Elementor. The issue happens with core blocks everytime and sometimes with Otter blocks. https://vertis.d.pr/v/xVQM62

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Add some blocks in the footer widget area and set some styling to them
2. Activate Elementor and check if the blocks look the same

Environment info

WordPress 6.4.1 / PHP 8.0 / Neve 3.7.3 / Elementor 3.17.3

Is the issue you are reporting a regression

Yes, this is a regression.

@irinelenache can you provide me with some more details on how to replicate this, I tried adding some blocks to the footer widget and activating Elementor on WP6.4.1 and nothing happened with the styles. One issue that I do see is that some blocks do not render on the front end regardless if Elementor is present or not.

Let me know and I can further investigate and fix this issue. Thank you!

@preda-bogdan I tried to dig more into this and i see that the issue is happening with Otter blocks when the blocks are added/edited directly from the customizer, you can see a video here https://vertis.d.pr/v/LPQQeN .

@irinelenache Can you check if the linked PR from Otter will solve the issue?
Thank you!

Note

We can remove the regression label from here if the PR from Otter fixes this issue, as it does not stem from Neve.

[preda-bogdan]

I've removed the regression label from here as this is not related to Neve and it is an issue with Otter and how it handles blocks inside the widgets section.

@preda-bogdan This was released part of the latest Otter release. You can close it nothing else is needed to be done.
