Custom controls for Elementor Page Builder.
FAQ
Installation Instructions
- Upload the plugin files to the
/wp-content/plugins/
directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
- Visit Elementor > Granular Controls to access the settings – other settings are accessible via the Editor and set on per page/section/column basis.
I’ve switched Particles on and they overlay my content, how can I fix this?
To resolve this any widgets placed in the section will need a higher z-index – Go to the Advanced tab of each widget and set the z-index to 1 & save
I can no longer see the controls for Parallax and/or Particles, Why?
In order to avoid scripts being loaded on sites that are not using these options a setting control has been added where they can be switched on and off as needed – See Elementor > Granular Controls > Editor Options.
I do not see the Exit Bar in the Editor, how do I get access to it?
You can enable or disable the bar via the settings page – Visit Elementor > Granular Controls > Editor Options to activate it.
When I turn on the Admin Dashboard Page I loose my admin widgets too, what’s wrong?
As the admin page is being modified this may happen on some sites but the widgets are not lost – simply click on the screen options and turn them on again.
