Learn What Site Lock Is

Learn What Site Lock Is

Why do visitors need a pin code to see my site?

By default, Elementor cloud sites are locked. Visitors to your website are blocked from viewing it by a lock screen that requires entering a pin code. This enables you to work freely, without the pressure of someone looking over your shoulder (or at your site) without you knowing it. 

Site Lock also prevents search engines from discovering your site. This way your SEO score won’t be affected unnecessarily (while working on your site.) 

Where can I find my pin code?

In your Elementor Dashboard, click the cog of any cloud site to access cloud site details. Under Site Lock, slide the toggle button to switch it on or off.

To view your site lock’s passcode, click the eye icon. To copy the passcode to your clipboard, click the Copy icon. To reset the passcode, click the Reset icon.

Going live

When you are ready to go live and make it discoverable, simply remove the Site Lock so potential visitors can see it without having to enter a pin code.

Note: To fully enable search engines ability to crawl your website you must also navigate to Dashboard > Settings > Reading and uncheck the “Discourage search engines from indexing this site.”

What is the difference between Site Lock and Maintenance Mode

Site Lock is an Elementor Cloud only feature to block traffic at the server level. It will display a default Elementor page and prompt users to enter a pin code. You cannot customize this page. Elementor also offers a Maintenance Mode and Coming Soon feature. This allows you to temporarily block visitors to your site by displaying a custom page, while allowing access to editors. You may fully customize this page to feature a countdown timer or collect email addresses for early adopters. Learn More in this blog post.

What Are Site Kits

Site kits are a bundle of templates, pages, pop ups, and all the needed parts for a complete website. Rather than importing each template individually as we have done in the past, you may now import all the content at once. The Kits Library can also help users learn about website structure, including all must-have pages and parts that every website needs to include. Each kit comes with a complete design and structure of a full website and includes content pages, Theme Builder parts, and Popups. Learn more here.

Selecting a Kit

You may open the kit library by navigating to the WordPress Panel > Templates > Kit library. From there, you can choose one that best suits your needs. Kits can be completely edited after importing so use your imagination if a specific template genre is not yet available. 

How Kits Are Structured

Site Kits are bundled with all the needed site parts and templates.You can see a working demo of the complete kit before importing. By clicking the Overview button at the top of the kit, you may view all the items that you will be importing. These typically include several demo Pages, Posts, and all the Theme Builder Site Parts (header, footer, archive, single post, single page, 404, etc).

Free Kits

Free kits are included in the library. They will only contain sections, widgets, and settings available to free users. Hello theme users may use the Header and Footer Customizer in the Site Settings in order to customize these site parts. This option is active on all new sites. If you have an existing website, you may need to enable this feature by navigating to Elementor > Settings > Experiments and activating the option.

Applying A Kit

When you have selected the Site kit you would like to use, you may start the Import process below:

Click the Apply Kit buttonSelect the content you wish to import. You may keep all toggled, or only choose to import parts of the kit. Once completed, click the green Next button at the bottom of your screen.The importer will now process your request. Do not close or refresh this page until complete.If your website already has Theme Builder Templates assigned, you will be asked to select the templates you wish to override. Unselected templates will still be imported but without display conditions.Once the import has completed, you will see a complete list of all imported content.  You may now return to the dashboard and view your content. 

Editing The Content

Editing The Pages

Your kit will import several pages. These can be found in the Dashboard > Pages area of WordPress. To edit them click the Edit with Elementor link. For more information on editing with Elementor click here.

Editing The Posts

In order to help get you started, sample Posts will be auto generated, this helps you to visualize the Archives, Single Post, and other Kit layouts. Once you have started adding your own content these posts may be deleted.

Editing The Theme Parts

The Kits will also import the Theme Builder Theme Parts. These will include the Header, Footer, Archive, Single Post, Single Page, and 404 Page (if applicable to the Kit) You can find these parts in the Theme Builder. For more on the Elementor Theme Builder click here.

Editing The Popups

If your Kit includes popups for contact forms, navigation, or other uses, you may locate these in the dashboard located in the Templates region.

You can add the Kit Popups to the icons or links by using the dynamic options. For more about popups click here.

Editing Site Kit Global Settings

When working with Site Kits, the Global Fonts and Colors have already been set up for you. To edit these, we will use the Global Site Settings.

Editing The Global Fonts

Locate the Site Settings – You may find the site settings from the top corner of your editor panel.Locating the Global Fonts – The Site Kit fonts are all located in the Global Fonts settings pictured below.Locating the Main Hero Title settings – In our example, we are editing the Main Hero Title. You will find this in the list of imported styles. Editing the settings here will update the font on all usages in your site.Changing the Font Settings – Select the new family you wish to use for your Main Hero Title throughout the website. You may also set the size, weight, transform, style, decoration, line-height, and letter spacing at this time.Update your site settings – Click the blue update button at the bottom. You may edit the other global fonts located on this page at this time, or return to the editor.

Editing The Global Colors

Your Site Kit also uses Global Colors in headings, text, backgrounds and buttons. These may also be found in the Site Settings at the top under Global Colors. You may edit these using the color picker. These settings will apply to all the applications used on your Kit. Learn more about Global colors here.

Note: You may find that some kits also use the general site background color. You can change this located in Site Settings > Settings > Background.

Editing The Site Identity

Navigate to Site Settings > Site Identity. Here you can change the name of your site, the tagline, the logo, and the favicon.

Adding The Logo

To add a logo to your imported Kit, you may assign it by uploading your logo in the Site Identity settings. It will then be used for the header and footer of your website when the Site Logo Widget is used. You may use jpg, png, and GIF file types. 

Note: SVGs may be used if previously uploaded to the media library. You must also define a size in the style tab of your Site Logo Widget.

Creating The Menu

At this time, the Site Kit does not automatically create your Navigation Menu. You will need to create your own menu from the WordPress dashboard located at Appearance > Menus or from the Customizer.

Hosted Elementor Website: Purchasing and Registering a Domain

Hosted Elementor Website: Purchasing and Registering a Domain

In order to use a custom domain on your Hosted Elementor Website, you must have a name registered with a third party. Elementor does not offer registration services at this time. Commonly used registrars are:

GodaddyNamecheapGoogle DomainsDomain.comHover

Note: For this document, we will be using GoDaddy as our example. Other providers will be similar steps.

Picking a domain name

Choose your name carefully, as it is often the easiest way for people to recognize, and find you. Your domain should be as short as possible but use specific terms. For example freds.com is short but does not describe you in any way. Using fredsbarbershop.com would be much better in terms of visitors finding you.

 

Buying your name

You can expect to pay about $15 USD for a domain name per year. Some of this money goes to ICANN for the actual registration and the rest to the company for DNS services. Most companies offer a discounted rate for multi-year contracts. Choose the plan best for you or your client.

Using your name

Once purchased, it may take a few minutes to be added to the system. You may then visit your account page and set up the DNS to be pointed to your Hosted Elementor Website. Learn more about connecting your domain here.

Elementor Library FAQ

Elementor Library FAQ

What is the Elementor Library?

The Elementor Library is a library which contains over 30 pre-designed page templates, as well as templates that were saved by the user. The Library allows you to quickly create designed pages and customize them to be your own, saving you from building all pages from scratch.

Pick any template from the library and add it to your page with one click. It saves you time and energy. 

For tutorials about the Elementor Library, check this  guide. Check out the Hero kit templates we previously released.

Where can I find the Pre-designed Templates?

Click on the ‘Add template’ button

Where can I find my saved Templates?

All the templates that you saved can be found under Templates in your WordPress Admin Dashboard. 

These templates are also available, along with the pre-designed templates, in the Library that is accessible from the Elementor panel. 

Is there a hotkey to open the template library?

Yes. ‘Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + L’ opens up the Template Library modal.

Are there landing page templates in the Elementor Library?

Yes. Several landing page templates are available in the Elementor Library. It is easy to identify them in the list since their title always includes the words “Landing page”.

The “Insert” option is gone, what can I do?

1. Try to deactivate all your plugins (besides Elementor) and see if it solves it.

2. If it didn’t help, try to switch your theme to a default WP theme such as Twenty Sixteen.

How can I export a template?

Check the section “How to export / import templates to external websites” of this  guide for the whole procedure.

How to import a template to another website?

Check the section “How to export / import templates to external websites” of this  guide for the whole procedure.

Can I sell pre-built templates that use Elementor Pro elements?

Yes! You are allowed to sell pre-built templates, even templates that are designed with Pro elements. Please make your end users aware, however, that when templates are made with Pro elements, those elements will only be active and visible if the end user purchases Elementor Pro.

SUPPORT

I am trying to save several templates to my Templates library but, for some reason, I can’t. What is the problem?

Go to Elementor > System Info in your WordPress Dashboard and check whether Elementor’s Library is connected or not. Go to Elementor > Tools in your WordPress Dashboard and synchronize the library. 

If it still doesn’t work, please contact your hosting company and ask them to set this configuration: allow_url_fopen

I cannot load templates, what can I do?

Go to Elementor > System Info, and check whether Elementor’s Library is connected or not.Go to Elementor > Tools and synchronize the library.

Click on “sync library” in the “tools” tab of Elementor in your WordPress dashboard if it is not synced yet.

I purchased Elementor Pro but when I try to use a Pro template I am required to go pro, why?

This happens when Elementor does not recognize that you have a Pro license key. In this case, verify that you have the latest version of Elementor Pro. Go to Dashboard (in your WP Dashboard) >Updates >  and click on Check again.

When I try to load a template I receive the error cURL ERROR 7? What should I do?

In this case, you have to contact your Hosting Company so that they can change the configuration of your server that blocks the request.

The predesigned templates in the library do not load for me, why?

This is generally due either to a memory issue or to the configurations of your server (file permission issues).

Verify if you meet the requirements of Elementor regarding the WP memory limit and check via your console browser if you receive 403 errors.

If you cannot open the library, contact your hosting company and ask them to verify the configurations set on your server.

Requirements

Requirements

Our main goal at Elementor is to create the fastest, most advanced website builder for WordPress. To achieve this, we make sure it is based on the latest technology available.

Here are the system requirements you need in order to use Elementor.(If you are not sure whether or not your server supports this, contact your host).

Starter Checklist

Use this checklist to help guide you. Tick all that apply.

I have WP version 5.2 or greater

I have PHP version 7.0 or greater

I have MySQL version 5.6 or greater OR MariaDB version 10.0 or greater

I have WP Memory limit of 128 MB or greater (256 MB or higher is preferred)

I have the correct folder permissions granted on my server

I have new versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge version 79 or greater

I have access to a desktop or laptop computer

WordPress 5.2 or Greater

Elementor works with WordPress version 5.2 or greater

PHP 7 or Greater

Note: If your site is hosted on a server with an older PHP, you may experience issues. We recommend you to contact your hosting provider to upgrade to the latest version of PHP.

Elementor may also work with PHP 5.4+, but these older versions have reached official End Of Life and as such may expose your site to security vulnerabilities and bugs, and may not always work as expected.

MySQL 5.6 or Greater

MySQL version 5.6 or greater OR MariaDB version 10.0 or greater

WP Memory Limit

WP Memory limit of 128 MB or greater (256 MB or higher is preferred)

Note: These requirements are for Elementor. If you are using additional plugins on your site that also have minimum requirements such as WooCommerce, you may need to increase your memory to 512 MB to help avoid loading issues. See also, the following documentation Elementor Widget Panel Not Loading.

Browsers

Please note that you must use Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge version 79 or greater to EDIT pages with Elementor. You will not be able to edit with versions of Microsoft Edge which are earlier than version 79, nor can you edit with any version of Microsoft Internet Explorer. Microsoft’s newest versions of Edge (v. 79 and higher, which was first released in January, 2020) are based on Chromium (the same base as Google Chrome), so Microsoft’s new Edge is now fully capable of editing pages with Elementor. Of course your pages built with Elementor will display as designed in all modern browsers. Most features will display properly in IE but because IE is an older browser, it is incapable of supporting some of the modern web technologies that Elementor may utilize for some of its features. For that reason, Elementor does not support IE anymore. Even Microsoft has stopped support for IE. If IE support is still critical for your particular circumstance, you may need to hire a developer to add custom code. You can find expert Elementor developers at the Elementor Experts portal.

Device

It is not possible to edit with mobile phones and tablets for the moment. You can only edit pages with Elementor on desktop computers.

Servers

If your website is hosted by WP Engine, you might need to add SSL to your website to avoid  saving issues.

If you use SiteGround or GoDaddy, make sure that they modify the SubstituteMaxLineLength of your server for you

X-Frame options

It has to be set to “same origin” to avoid  editing issues. Please ask your host to do this for you.

PHP Z-Lib Extension

It is preferable to have PHP Zlib extension enabled on your server. Please ask your host to enable this for you, if it is not.
