UseElementor with your favorite or customized WordPress theme. Change themes and still keep all your designs. Landing pages, homepages, posts, portfolios, products. Elementor can be used to design any page or custom post type on WordPress.

Elementor is the leading website builder platform for professionals on WordPress. Elementor serves web professionals, including developers, designers and marketers, and boasts a new website created every 10 seconds on its platform.


My idea is having my own flexible content elements, and adding an extra one which is just the text editor, where they could build whatever they want with this builder. It would work as the other sections I made(draggable, removable etc). In short: mixing my premade back-end inputs with a page builder option.


A workaround (and not a great one) is that you can embed an Elementor template shortcode in the WYSIWYG editor area. For occasional use this would perhaps be OK. If you need to use Elementor on tons of pages, this is untenable, though.

Well, In WordPress it is generally not advisable to use multiple page builders simultaneously on the same page. Page builders like Divi and Elementor are designed to be standalone solutions for creating and designing web pages. Mixing them on a single page can lead to conflicts, layout issues, and compatibility problems.


However, you can choose to use one page builder for one page and the other for a different page within the same website. For example, you might use Divi to design one page and Elementor to design another page. This approach is more straightforward and less likely to cause conflicts.


If you need to create different page layouts within the same page, it's better to choose a single page builder and utilize its features for layout customization. Both Divi and Elementor are robust page builders with extensive design capabilities, and you can achieve a wide range of layouts and designs with either one.


So, I hope this clears your confusion as it's not recommended to mix multiple page builders on the same page, but you can use Divi for one page and Elementor for another page within your WordPress website.


In the Prestashop market, I see there is a page builder "based on" Elementor by Webshop, AP Page Builder by Apollo Themes and CSS Magician. On Themeforest, there's also Visual Composer for Prestashop (and possibly more out there if I really search)


I'm wandering if it's better to buy a pre-made theme, or buy a pagebuilder and customise the default theme. The reason why I ask is because I've been running theme's demo sites through Google's speedtest and all the themes I've tested have had terrible ranking (4% - 30% scores), while Prestashop's default theme scored a massive 94% which is mind-blowingly awesome. I'm worried that the themes are bloated and I'd be better off modifying the default theme with a capable pagebuilder.


I don't have many informations for now as I just start searching, but regarding the Builder from Webshop which looks really great, there is one point for me which is blocking to use it. In fact this is just a page builder and it doesn't allow you to create a top menu which looks similar to the rest of your page.


CSS magician (and another CSS editor which I can't remember) seem to allow for editing all elements, including the header, but only their appearance, not their positions. This is why it's an editor, not a builder.


I've just done a Google speedtest on a second Prestashop site. The default theme scored that amazing 94%. The moment I loaded a theme from one of the most popular developers out there, my score immediately crashed to 24%. (and this is from one of the most popular theme developers for Prestashop who has hundreds of themes to chose from and boasts about his loading speed and optimisations).


I'm a non-pro 'fudger', but I can generally get by. I'm trying to find the best tool to make myself a shop and am sort of nervous about all these tools, as I slooowly make sense of the whole prestashop thing, which I find confusing.


the things is that. Without any page builder it is quite difficult for any non technical developer to create beautiful site in PrestaShop, module wise hook system, not able to hook any module inside content. Which made easy by page builder.


There don't seem to be many page builders, but I find the entire prestashop universe very opaque and hard to work out. I understand (I think) that the prestashop business model is Add-Ons, but there seems to be another world outside of theirs, for which security may be a concern?


For my own part, I've found only 2 page builders within prestashop's world. CSS Magician and Creative Elements. Yesterday I found another, outside; Pagebuilder, but worryingly the owner appears to have gone silent in the last year. I hope he's ok. Unfortunately I think Pagebuilder is better suited to what I want, but I don't want to go that route if development has stopped.


We are the first PrestaShop developer to developed shortcode, page builder awasome slider revolution. Last year we release our crazy element page builder based on Elementor , and released in your site.


Our developed smartblog is the first big free module in PrestaShop forum which almost used over 100,000+ user. What i want to mean you that you can trust on us and used our crazy element which is most powerfull and fine.


I'm currently looking at woocommerce... partly out of frustration at the obscure, almost covert way, in which prestashop presents itself. You may not realise this, because you understand it so well, but for a newcomer, it's really hard to understand, fundamentally, how the prestashop universe works, not only on a business level, but also technically with regard to third-party products and so subsequently, how much it's going to cost and the implications going forward. I sort of feel like I'm being conned.. which is something that really annoys me. ?


So while it seems to be a theme issue, it was CE that took the hit and appeared to be broken. I tried contacting CE, but because I was outside of my bundled few months free support, they wanted me to buy support to just ask them a few simple questions. No way around it - I had to submit a ticket and include my licence. There wasn't even a sales email address to try circumvent their ticketing system.


I gave up on Prestashop and Woocommerce, through frustration at the complexity and the seemingly covert business models, which seem to be a 'thing' within the WordPress universe. It just seems to be nigh on impossible to get a straight answer to anything, especially when it comes down to cost... right down to 'last minute deals' which turn out to be permanent. It's an incessant con.


Finally I've gone with imagely/NextGEN because it's simpler and their eCommerce solution is sufficient for my needs, but it's still something of a UI mess. It's the hobbyist's garage floor. Bits everywhere. This does seem to be a problem with WP in general. I'm thinking of it like the Microsoft UI. Just nudge something sideways to make space for 'the great new feature'.


I've built my own website for 20 years and it's been fully responsive for 7 or 8. I'm fairly amazed that imagely, which is essentially gallery software, doesn't have an image-slider, but it doesn't and so I've gone for Smart Slider and once again, I'm kind of surprised to see 'px' everywhere. I haven't used px for years. I mean... they break responsive. It has options for % and em, but they're not the default and they're not everywhere.


It's possible the non-Elementor ones don't affect speed scores much at all. Depends on how they built them. But it's hard to know by reading alone If most users don't notice anything. I appreciate that both of you guys in this thread DO notice such things ?


We are releasing our crazy elements free version soon. Then you can install in your site and then check. One of our free ( pro featured ) theme will release soon. You can then compare. Right now we are fixing that is why not share the url publicly
