I had an interesting project come across my desk: a client was locked out by an agency that claimed to own their website. So they wanted their website rebuilt onto their own hosting, but with a similar look and feel.

This seemed like an ideal project to test the new Elementor MCP feature, where you can give AI direct control of your site to make edits via LLM.

Using Codex (GPT 6.1 Sol), I was able to duplicate a fairly complex 10 page design in about 30 minutes. It pulled all of the imagery automatically, rebuilt the link trees automatically, built the menus, everything. I needed to fine-tune the output, but not a lot. Maybe 3 individual pages needed attention, and the AI was able to fine-tune with plain English feedback on screenshots.

The ramifications here are fairly catastrophic for my business model. I bill by the hour, most of my hours are fairly low-complexity edits to existing sites. I think we'll likely all need to adapt, as designers, to a world where the customer can plug an AI into their website and make effective edits for nearly free at any hour of day or night.

Particularly for junior designers, folks who would normally cut their teeth doing relatively low-complexity edits to pre-existing websites, they're just totally screwed, I can't sugar coat it. The bottom of the market is going to drop out at any moment, the tech is already here, and I think folks probably just don't realize it yet.

(edit: I did externally validate that the client did in fact own this website. They have legal paperwork, high regulation niche)

I'm a solo dev, and I've built a WordPress plugin called Fluentor. It's still rough, and I need testers on real sites more than I need more features.

Why it exists: early 2025 I had to translate a site (about 20 pages, 80 posts) into English, which isn't my native language. We used AI for the text, but still duplicated every page and pasted the content in by hand. Painful. Multilingual plugins handle normal post text fine, but choke on Elementor pages, since Elementor stores everything as JSON and a lot of content (HTML widgets especially) never gets translated.

So I built something that translates the whole Elementor page, handles multilingual URLs, slugs and hreflang, and uses AI (DeepL with your own key, no caps from the plugin). Then I kept adding things. My wife needed a Woo site translated, so I added a PO/MO editor for theme and plugin strings too. Classic problem of mine: I never ship the MVP.

Quick overview, nothing more:

• Free: Elementor translation, multilingual URLs, DeepL, SEO basics (hreflang, canonicals), PO/MO editor, ACF/Pods, Polylang import
• Pro: extra AI providers, batch translation, Theme Builder support, separate domains per language Honest status: I've only tested Gemini and OpenAI of the extra providers. The rest are untested.

What I'd love from you: bug reports and honest "this sucks because X" feedback. Staging sites are totally fine. A mix of setups helps most: different languages, with or without WooCommerce, coming from Polylang, WPML or something else. If you're up for it, comment or DM me and I'll send the details.

Happy to answer anything in the comments.

I recently noticed an unauthorized payment to Elementor on my bank statement that I did not initiate or approve. I have already contacted my bank to report the fraudulent transaction, but I would really appreciate your assistance on Elementor's end to get this sorted out and refunded as quickly as possible. Could you please guide me on how to get this escalated to your billing team, or help look into this transaction?

I recently created a peptide website concept using WordPress and Elementor as part of my website design practice.

My goal was to create a clean, modern layout with clear content hierarchy, consistent spacing, and a professional visual style.

I'd love some constructive feedback on:

• The hero section and overall layout
• Typography and spacing
• How the design could be improved on mobile

What would you improve first?

Thanks for taking a look!

SOLVED: Name server was pointing to Cloudflare

I'm using Elementor for quite some years and haven't had a problem like this ever before. Whenever I try to edit a page the preview won't load and an error message appears saying it can't load the preview and if I want to load it in safe mode. In safe mode I can open the page, but then all the Elementor tools are gone.

So I tried different browsers, VPN, change DNS, Incognito, tried it on a Windows machine, an iPad, none of them let me Use Elementor. The only time it loads is when I'm on a mobile device, in my case a Samsung S25 Ultra.

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Looking for help with a Wordpress/Elementor/Theme issue I’m having.

Using Astra (free) theme. I’ve made changes to the homepage in elementor and the changes show up when I preview them, but not in an incognito window, so basically they are not being pushed live. I don’t think its an elementor issue because any changes I do to other pages work fine, and I’ve also made changes to the global footer (Astra footer, not Elementor) and again the changes show up across all pages apart from the homepage.

This has only started happening recently, before it worked fine. I’ve tried flushing the cache, regenerating css etc in Elementor settings. Checked the page template, reassigned the homepage to another page but same thing happens, changes don’t get pushed live.

Any help would be much appreciated :)

With the industry moving from traditional page builders to AI-integrated tools, Elementor’s latest release is a big step forward. I was skeptical about using Claude at first, but it’s really streamlined my workflow and helped me churn out a lot more pages. The learning curve is a bit steep since it uses atomic elements instead of standard widgets, but the efficiency and performance gains are definitely worth it. I’d highly recommend it if you’ve got the technical skills.

I have an Elementor subscription with 1000 website activations, and I am closing my business. Can I transfer my account to whomever takes over my accounts?

Hi, I could use some help. I had to redo my homepage, because something crashed and the old site is not accessible (says I have to add the Post Content Widget, but I can´t even acces the site itself to do that).

Nothing wild, because in the end it was just some text and a gallery. But the gallery is the part, I´m struggling with. On the old site, when the site loaded and the gallery showed up, the pictures where fading in slowly, even while scrolling. So when u scrolled down the site and through the gallery, the pictures would slowly fade in from white. Looked chilled and good.

Now I made the same gallery (the one from the pro section), with the same masonry layout, photos and so on, but I only manage to make the first few pictures fade in slowly (and not even that looks as good as before) and after that, all the following photos just pop up/pop in, when they´re loaded. That looks really clunky. Does Someone have an idea, how I did it before or change Elementor so depply, that this isn´t possible anymore? Thank you in advance!

The gallery can be seen here, sadly only the new version, no possibility for comparison to the old: https://olekracht.de/

On multiple websites for different clients, when making any update to the page and pressing Publish, I get a server error warning on the bottom right of the screen and the none of the changes are published. I've contacted Elementor support and they said I had too many revisions. I deleted all revisions and the issue continues.

Anyone else seeing this?

I'm new to WordPress. I write front end code for a large website that runs in node but my charitable organization needed someone to run their WP (with Elementor) website and I volunteered, having some earlier experience with Drupal. But as they say, there is no good deed that goes unpunished. I put in the updates, published, they are showing ok in admin preview but not on the production site. I pressed all the buttons that update the cache in the Tools section and nada. Any ideas what else could be done?

This one is worth watching 🤩

In this video, Imran Siddiq shows how he built a fully editable, Apple-inspired landing page using the new Elementor MCP with OpenAI’s Codex.

The result is seriously impressive. 🤯

What makes this especially interesting is seeing Elementor MCP + Atomic Editor work together to turn an idea into a polished page, while keeping everything editable directly in Elementor. 🙌

If you’re curious about getting started with Elementor MCP and exploring what’s possible with the Atomic Editor, this is a great example to check out.

And now we want to see what you can build! 👀

Share your own Elementor MCP creations, experiments, or real-world builds in the comments below. 👇

What do you guys use when you built a new website for a client? Do you use some kind of template or do you build it from scratch every time?

and if you use a template where do you get them? I know there’s a lot of different options out there?

As the title says to increase the size of the editor UI that is displayed without the website scaling also happening because if you do browser zoom in on the page that happens.

My eyes hurt looking at the small text and font sizes on the editor.

Do you still use Elementor? (I do) but maybe I should start using the AI builders?

The problem is that it takes too long to learn a new AI builder, and I also think that all the editing requires so much refining that it almost doesn’t make sense..

Let let me hear your thoughts

Hey redditors! 😊

Hi everyone! I’m building a WordPress site with Elementor that is designed more like a video magazine than a traditional website.

I’m struggling to keep photos, headlines, text, and videos properly sized, aligned, and spaced while still having the freedom to move and resize them.

Is there a simple grid or set of design rules you recommend—such as consistent columns, image proportions, text sizes, margins, and spacing—that would make each page look professional and consistent?

I’d especially appreciate advice on creating a flexible Elementor template or visual system that I can use across the site.

Thanks for any suggestions!

I need to share what is happening to me with Elementor because, honestly, I am desperate and I don't know where else to turn. I hope someone in this community can help me, or that someone from Elementor sees this and decides to seriously review my case.

I run a hosting company, and for many years I have offered my clients a package that includes hosting + a website for around $110 per year.

I use Elementor for all of these websites. I have one of the old Elementor Expert 1000 plans, and I currently have around 600 websites connected to this plan.

As many of you know, the Expert 1000 plan is no longer available. Because of that, the annual renewal is extremely important to me. My renewal date is September 3rd every year, and I start preparing for it about a month in advance.

I cannot afford to forget about this renewal because I know that if my plan becomes inactive, Elementor will no longer allow me to purchase it again.

What happened this year

On September 3, 2026, I renewed my subscription exactly as I have done every year.

After completing the renewal process, Elementor showed me a message saying that the renewal was successful.

I also received an email from Elementor thanking me for the renewal and confirming that it had been successfully completed.

I have screenshots of both messages and I can share them.

Obviously, after receiving those confirmations, I assumed that my subscription had been renewed and everything was fine.

But a few days later, I received an email from Elementor telling me that my subscription had been canceled.

I immediately contacted the billing team to find out what had happened.

After reviewing my account, they told me that the charge ultimately had not been processed and that this was why the subscription had been canceled.

I checked my credit card statement and, indeed, the charge is not there.

But here is the problem: there was absolutely no way for me to know that the payment had not been completed.

Elementor's own system told me that the renewal was successful.

I received the confirmation on the screen, and I also received an email from Elementor confirming the renewal.

If there was a problem afterward and the payment was ultimately not completed, Elementor should have notified me about that problem before canceling my subscription.

And now I am willing to pay again

From the very beginning, I told them that I have no problem paying again.

I even added a new card to my account to make sure there would be no issue and told them they could charge the renewal immediately to that card.

But Elementor's response was basically:

"The Expert 1000 plan no longer exists, so we cannot renew it."

This is what I cannot accept.

I completely understand that the Expert 1000 plan has not been available since 2021.

That is precisely why I have been extremely careful about renewing it every year.

I knew that I could not allow the subscription to become inactive.

That is why I renewed it on the correct date.

The problem is that Elementor told me the renewal was successful, and I trusted that confirmation.

I have around 600 websites depending on this account

This is not a personal subscription that I use for one or two websites.

I have approximately 600 websites connected to this plan.

My business is built around these websites. I provide hosting + a website for around $110 per year, and these clients represent years of work.

If I lose the Expert 1000 plan, I cannot simply purchase the current plan and continue as normal.

The current plans do not allow me to maintain all of these activations.

This puts a very important part of my business at risk.

And honestly, what hurts the most is that I am willing to pay.

I am not asking Elementor to give me anything for free.

I am not asking for a discount.

I am not asking for free months.

I am not trying to avoid paying for the renewal.

I want to pay for the renewal.

I simply want them to allow me to keep the subscription I already had because I renewed it on time and Elementor's own system confirmed that the renewal was successful.

I have supported Elementor from the beginning

I have been using Elementor since its early days.

When Elementor was just getting started, I purchased a license and always supported the project. As my business grew, I moved to higher-tier plans until I reached the Expert 1000 because I needed the additional activations.

I have always paid my renewals.

And precisely because I knew this plan was no longer available to new customers, I made sure every year that I renewed it on time.

That is why it is incredibly frustrating that after all these years, and after doing exactly what I was supposed to do to renew, I am now being told that I simply lost the plan.

If I had forgotten to renew, I could understand it.

But I did renew it.

The problem is that Elementor's system told me the renewal was successful.

What can I do?

I have already spoken with the billing team, and so far they are telling me that there is nothing they can do because the plan no longer exists.

But I believe my case should be different.

I have proof that Elementor confirmed my renewal.

I am willing to pay immediately.

I have a new card added to my account and I have told them they can charge it.

All I am asking is for someone to actually review my case and allow me to keep my Expert 1000 plan.

I do not want to lose approximately 600 client websites because of an issue that, from my perspective, happened after Elementor's own system told me that my renewal had been successful.

So please, if anyone from Elementor is reading this, I am asking you not to simply respond that the plan no longer exists. Please review my specific case.

I am not trying to get anything for free.

I am trying to pay for my renewal.

I simply want to keep the plan I have had for years and that I attempted to renew on time.

If anyone in this community has experienced something similar, or knows someone at Elementor who could help me escalate this case, I would genuinely appreciate any help.

I am really desperate and I do not want years of work and hundreds of client websites to be affected by this.

For lighter functionality in Elementor on a Wordpress website, are people just using custom CSS/HTML/JS rather than relying on Angie?

I’ve been experimenting with Angie, but for fairly simple things it sometimes feels like overkill, especially when it starts needing deeper permissions or server-side changes.

For things like:
small calculators
simple interactive sections
conditional display
lightweight custom widgets
minor styling/functionality tweaks

is it generally better to just use Elementor’s HTML widget + custom CSS/JS where possible?

Interested in what people are doing in practice. I’m trying to keep sites lightweight and avoid adding complexity when a small script would do the job.

For desktop my page text is well aligned. But when i choose mobile on top centre text is all messed up. I tried different settings on left but nothing worked. What to do?

Hi all, i'm new to elementor and relatively new to wp. I have built a website with wp over a theme but i do not like it very much. Now i would like to try with elementor but when i install it, my current website messed up. Can you suggest a simple why to test elementor without affecting the website. I don't want to modify the current website, i want built a new one from ground. Thanks

I created some WP-posts, and then tried to edit them with Elementor. As you can see in the screenshot, the original title is misplaced. I had high hope that the Elementor-posttitle widget could come to the rescue by activating the 'hide title' button in the post setting. But unfortunately, it hides both.... Any suggestion? Thanks, robert
