StylePress for Elementor

StylePress for Elementor Plugin

Use Elementor to design your complete website. Reuse header/footer on all pages. No theme required.

This is a free plugin for Elementor Page Builder.

It provides two things:

  • A full site builder using Elementor (design your entire website without a Theme)
  • Adds extra widgets to Elementor (e.g. Tooltip, Navbar, Mailchimp, Modal Popups, Page Slider, etc..)

Watch this introduction video that covers some of the basics:

Design your entire website without a theme. Easily apply a Style to every page of your site automatically using the drag and drop editor.

How to create a website design without a WordPress theme:

  • Go to the StylePress > Styles menu.
  • Click “Create New Style”.
  • Design your layout using the Easy Elementor Drag & Drop editor.
  • Add the “Inner Content” widget to the area that will display your content.
  • Go to StylePress > Settings
  • Apply your Style to the “Global” area

Tips:

  • Make sure “Remove Theme CSS” is ticked in StylePress > Settings.
  • If you find it hard to set global font default, go into Elementor > Settings and tick “Disable Global Colors” and “Disable Global Fonts”. Then install the “Easy Google Fonts” plugin and set all your defaults from Appearance > Typography.

FAQ

Is this compatible with my theme?

Maybe. Try it out. Tick the “Remove Theme CSS” option in StylePress > Settings. Let me know if you have any troubles.

Fonts are not working

Try to install the Easy Google Fonts plugin. This gives some great global font style features in Appearance > Customize.
Go into the Elementor > Settings window and disable the default Elementor fonts and color
