Page-builders have recently taken the web by storm, since they have expanded their functionality and made it much easier for users to create websites on their own. One of the key reasons for their growing popularity is their ability to expedite the web design process.
Elementor is one of them. It’s a page builder that’s acquired a lot of traction and is now one of the most popular. For the most part, it’s due to its capacity to assist businesses in establishing their web presence considerably more quickly than in the past. Because of its relatively simple workflow, Elementor’s adoption rate expanded extremely quickly. This post will discuss in greater detail by going through various tips and strategies for doing so.
Pre-made templates
Instead of needing to redesign a design from start, pre-made templates allow it to be reused multiple times. This allows you to work more efficiently while also giving you more time to focus on elements that add value. Elementor comes with a plethora of pre-made templates, both free and paid. Elementor, of course, has a large library of pre-made templates to assist you get started with any web design project. These allow you to build on top of them to create a stunning website in a matter of minutes. Aside from Elementor’s collection, there are a plethora of free and premium templates available.
Use Hotkeys
These are keyboard shortcuts that can save you time by reducing the number of clicks required to do routine tasks. They can be useful, especially when switching between panel and preview mode or switching to mobile editing. Elementor has a list of hotkeys which you can refer to.
Branded color palette
Your website is almost certainly going to have a color scheme. Elementor’s color palette makes it simple for you to save and apply colors to your elements in the live editor as a designer. This tool aids in the speeding up of the process of assigning colors to each element by allowing you to choose from your existing color palette.
Global font settings
Setting the default font helps you keep the look of the site consistent. You won’t have to set the font every time an element is added, once this is done. You can set the default font for four main categories in Elementor, including Primary Heading, Secondary Heading, Body Text, and Accent Text.
Inline editor
This function allows you to visually format and format your written text on-screen (how great is that!). If you’re writing long-form blog posts, optimizing landing page text, or repairing small spelling errors in your present content, they would be great. This could save you the trouble of having to return to your editor to make the adjustments you want.
In-built mobile preview mode
You may quickly switch to mobile-editing mode (Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + M) and make adjustments within the editor thanks to its built-in preview mode. To see how it looks on different platforms, you can switch to tablet and mobile mode. The new standard is to create a responsive website. Elementor just makes it a lot easier for you to do so!
Finder search bar
Your routine has now been considerably easier thanks to the Finder (Ctrl / Cmd + E). You used to have to switch back and forth between the dashboard settings and the live editor. Elementor, on the other hand, introduced the Finder to solve this issue! You may now swiftly navigate to different regions of your site without leaving the UI. It’s a search bar that allows you to jump between pages, layouts, dashboard settings, and fresh material with ease. As a result, the workflow and efficiency of constructing a website with Elementor has improved.
Navigator
The navigator (Ctrl / Cmd + I) was another useful design feature introduced. This helps to eliminate the clutter by allowing you to swiftly and simply drag and alter items (sections, columns, widgets, and so on) across the page. It’s especially useful if you’re creating long-form pages with multiple elements on a single page. You can refer to the Elementor Docs article for a more complete explanation.
- Paste-style
If you wish to style the same elements in several places on a website, this capability can be useful. You can copy the styling (colors, fonts, padding, and margins) of one element and paste it to another element in the same category using the Paste-style function (Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + V). Furthermore, this eliminates the need to repeat the procedure of specifying the same stylistic values for duplicate elements. The finest part is still to come! It also works across pages!
Global Widgets (Pro feature)
This Elementor functionality allows you to quickly show particular widgets that appear in many places throughout a page. When you save an Element as a Global Widget, changing the styling in one place affects the styling in all the widget’s other locations. These are more typically used for CTA buttons, testimonials, and other similar purposes. They can be installed as a widget or as a short code from the WordPress dashboard.
