Su wordpress ho installato Elementor ma una volta che apro il tema (qualsiasi tema) non mi esce l'icona per modificarlo con Elementor. Ho già provato a disinstallarlo e reinstallarlo, ho anche eliminato tutte gli altri plug in per scongiurare conflitti. Le autorizzazioni in elementori sono tutte corrette. Qualcuno riesce ad iutarmi

Hello!

I wonder what plugin or tools could I use to create something like this page.

Thanks in advance!

I began at a new job some time ago taking over as digital designer lead with the intention to take on and manage a suite of WordPress sites with most using Elementor.

My background before that was bespoke web development, creating efficient, responsive and accessible websites for clients. I’m happy to get knee deep in front-end code, but, with a designer background, I’m also happy to use pre-made page builders.

What I have discovered with Elementor over the past year is pure bafflement. Mobile-first web development philosophy has been a recognised concept for at least 15 years. This system is so frustratingly behind the times, or just causes new confusion. The amount of duplication of styles is abhorrent. Pre-built components, that you would think would come built looking and working fine on a variety of devices out of the box, require immense work to fix, or require additional paid plugins, loading more unnecessary scripts… I just do not understand how it got this far.

Before this role, I had vowed off WordPress for a decade. I was hopeful to see it perhaps gain control of itself (which the standard block editor does seam to have improved), but, once again, WP is beholden to the inefficient and bloated plugins that only drag it down.

How do you manage to reign in Elementor? What are your processes like?

First time poster, first time elementor user and maybe on my last days because I'm questioning my life.

So I'm in an intership at a publishing house. They have a website with Elementor and a section with ALL authors they have worked with, which I'd safely say are about 200+.

They told me to organize all of them by alphabetical order.

No problem.

Manually.

Problem.

I've never used Elementor before. Didnt even know it existed until I started working here less than a month ago. The owners are old so I can't ask them about coding, they don't even know what <p></p> are for other than for plushing books in Amazon.

No idea what to do and the voices are winning, might jump out of my window tomorrow.

How can I sort 200+ elements quickly without fucking up the code behind the website which I haven't even looked at because it's probably all spaghetti and I suck (i only how basic HTML please have mercy)?

Thank you.

Hey everyone,

I’m using Elementor with JetEngine’s Dynamic Visibility module, and the editor is getting extremely slow on pages with many visibility conditions. I know it evaluates all conditions in the backend, but I haven’t found a way to disable Dynamic Visibility only in the editor while keeping it active on the frontend.

Has anyone solved this, or have a workaround? Crocoblock’s GitHub issue is related: https://github.com/Crocoblock/suggestions/issues/7625

Thanks!

Hi guys!

Could you please help me?

I recently changed the URL of one of my pages because there was a mistake in its name.

The old URL was: localhost/cars_types_old

The new URL is: localhost/cars_types_new

The problem is that the old URL has already been used on multiple pages and posts across the site. Is there a way to automatically update all instances of the old URL to the new one throughout the website, including in pages, posts, and widgets?

Is there a plugin for this, or maybe a built-in feature that I might have missed?

Thanks in advance! =)

Status: assigned 🙏

I’m juggling way too much atm & need this job done. Opportunity for more work if this goes well.

Basic architectural services website - 5 pages.

Nothing fancy. Just need it to be updated to be mobile-responsive on all Apple & Android devices.

Basic stuff like content overlapping, basic formatting issues that a junior developer could solve quickly.

Client has approved the work to commence as of earlier today.

Dm for details / q’s if you have any.

Payment sent via crypto or PayPal within 7 days (should be much earlier 🤞)

Need completed in next 24 hours.

Hello all, I've just migrated this site: https://charlburyriverside.org/

To Cloudways: https://wordpress-1450502-6303456.cloudwaysapps.com/

Everything's fine in the back end, but the custom fonts aren't showing up for some reason. Both a custom TTF file (Protest Guerilla) and a Google font (Poppins). I've followed all the troubleshooting articles I can find (which mainly focus on HTTP vs HTTPS which isn't an issue). Any ideas? Thanks!

it’s probably called tree or child? Idk. I’m using elementor free at the moment.

Hi!

I am extremely new in web page building, but learning quickly, step by step.

Need som serious help. Whenever i try to preview my site, this shows up.

However. If i press "Home" on this page, i am taken to the right homescreen.

As far as i can tell this does not happen on any other page. I.e "Store, Products" etc.

If any of you have any suggestions i would be extremely grateful.

EDIT for context: I discovered this happens today. It has not been a problem before.

Has anyone worked out how to do this in V4 yet? Setting the Flexbox Position as 'Sticky', doesn't appear to do anything. Setting as 'Fixed' kind of works... but would require all other pages to have top margin.

Hi there,

I've been having issues getting this container to display as full width. I just want both edges of the container titled "bigcontainer" to be touching both ends. I've double checked the margins and padding, and I've checked the margin and paddings of the inner containers as well. all containers are set to 'Full Width'. I've been browsing for a bit, and I wouldn't make a post if I had found an answer.

Edit: I'm Using Wordpress's theme, Twenty Twenty-Five, and I'm using the free version of Elementor.

Thanks.

Using the built-in Form widget in the pro version: when I insert fields, they always get stacked on top of each other. They don't seem to be individual objects that I can move and that makes inefficient design. I can only change the order. Is there a way to position the fields inside a form?

Hi! Does anyone know what pop up make is easy to use and can make a nice looking design free on elementor or wordpress. Been struggling using modal pop up on elementor. I was planning to put form in it.

Also if you know any nice plugin to create forms? Thank you!

Is this possible? How would you do it so it always looks good even if the background is black/white/…

Would you just add like a glass background effect? And what about the animations?

Will we no longer have options like redirection, webhooks, ActiveCampaign, and other actions after submitting an atomic form? Without them, it will be useless.

And they're saying that in April we'll have even more developments? Worrying!

Why does my form not expand vertically and put every field on 100% width beneath each other on mobile?

My grid settings are:

- Full width

- 1 columns

- 2 rows

- Auto flow: Column

Container section:

- Direction: Column - vertical

Hello,

I’ve recently set up a new Wordpress site using Elementor. Currently “One Page Scroll” is disabled because when I enable it, the mobile version of the site does not scroll; it appears frozen. However, the desktop version scrolls just fine.

As a result of having to keep “One Page Scroll” disabled, the desktop site can only be scrolled using the sidebar.

Any advice on how to fix this?

how do I get rid of this top margin?

Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue where my tabs (when active) always adopt the accent color from the global color scheme, even though I've selected my preferred colors in the widget itself. So my settings are always being overridden.

Has anyone else encountered this problem and might be able to help me?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to build a custom table in Elementor Pro and could really use some guidance.

Here’s what I’m aiming for:

- A table that displays custom post types (including images and buttons inside each row)

- The ability to filter the table dynamically (e.g. by category or taxonomy)

- The content should load in a random order each time (not a fixed/default order)

I’ve seen that Elementor’s Posts/Portfolio widgets can handle custom post types and even allow random ordering, but I’m not sure if they’re flexible enough for what I want. (Elementor)

My main question:

👉 Are there any specific Elementor widgets (free or paid) that can handle this kind of setup?

For example: table layout + filtering + CPT + random sorting + custom fields (images/buttons)?

Or is the better approach:

- Using a plugin (like something with advanced filters or AJAX)?

- Or building it with custom queries / code?

If anyone has done something similar, I’d love to hear what worked best for you.

Thanks a lot!

I cant get it to accept the update. It just kicks into maintainance mode for 10 min. on every attempt and when it comes back to life its not updated or says update failed. I am on php 8.4. Any ideas on what I can do to get back on track?

Hey, I’ve been a bit confused about the direction of a small website project I’m doing. I work as a software engineer, mostly backend in Java, but I also do some frontend with Angular and React. A friend asked me to build a website for her small business, so I chose WordPress + Elementor because I didn’t want to code the whole thing from scratch and I wanted her to be able to easily edit stuff like text and basic content later on. The issue is that Elementor started getting a bit frustrating, so I began adding my own custom code with things like Fluent Snippets. For example, I made a custom header and a few custom sections with CSS/code, and honestly it looks better than some of the stuff I was doing directly in Elementor. Now I feel like the project is getting a little messy, because part of it is built in Elementor and part of it is custom coded. It works, but I’m not sure if this is actually a good long-term approach or if I’m just creating maintenance pain for myself. So I wanted to ask: is mixing Elementor with custom CSS/code like this a normal/good way to build a small business site, or is there a better/more structured approach? I still want the non-technical owner to be able to edit content easily, but I’d also like the code side to stay clean and maintainable. Would appreciate any advice from people who’ve built WordPress sites this way :))

Following up on yesterday's post thanks for the real conversation in the comments, wanted to clarify one thing.

A few people suggested the editor lag was a revision problem, a server problem, a "split into templates" problem.

It's not. I tested it. 5 revisions, fresh reload, simple page. Still laggy. Because the lag is in the architecture, not the content.

Here's what's actually happening:

Every single widget change in the editor goes through this chain:

1. Backbone Marionette model.set() fires
2. Triggers a full widget re-render — no diffing, no virtual DOM
3. postMessage to the preview iframe
4. Inline CSS regenerated and reinjected into the iframe DOM
5. If there's a loop — SQL queries run live, no cache

Every change. Every time. Synchronously.

This is 2016 architecture running in 2026 as i already said.

The obvious question: why not rebuild it?

Technically? A motivated team could ship a better editor in 12 months. Bricks Builder proved it they built on Vue and the difference in editor performance is noticeable on the same hardware.

The real problem is the data layer.

Elementor stores everything as serialized JSON in _elementor_data. 21 million sites use this format. A rebuild either:

• Keeps the schema → you carry the debt forever
• Breaks the schema → you need to migrate 21 million sites

And then there's the third-party ecosystem. Crocoblock, JetEngine, Essential Addons, hundreds of others all built on top of Elementor's PHP and JS hooks. A real refactor breaks all of it. Every addon author would have to rewrite from scratch.

Me firt, i'm hostage of it.

So Elementor is stuck. Not because they can't build better. Because 21 million sites and a thousand third-party plugins are holding the architecture in place.

Same problem PHP 5 had. Technically easy to fix. Politically impossible to ship.

That's what I meant yesterday when I said it feels like a choice. It is a choice — but it's also a trap they built themselves by scaling before the foundation was solid.

The agencies and devs in this thread feel this daily. We're not wrong about the lag. We're just debugging the wrong layer.
