How to create and edit pages with Elementor?

Creating and editing pages

The Elementor editor and site builder works in conjunction with WordPress. When you create a new page to edit with Elementor, you first need to create the page in WordPress, and then select Edit with Elementor.

Create a new page

1. From the WordPress dashboard, select the Pages tab
2. Click Add New

or

3. Select New>Page from the Admin bar
4. Click Edit with Elementor

Editing a page

1. First, let’s open the page for editing. Navigate to Pages > All Pages tab on the left of the Dashboard. The default page editor will open. Here click on Edit with Elementor button to proceed to editing with Elementor.                                                        
   
   
   
   

   Or you can select Edit with Elementor directly from the WordPress dashboard.

   • From the WordPress dashboard, click the Pages tab
   • Hover over the page name  
   • Select Edit with Elementor 

   

   
   
   
2. On the Elementor editor page you’ll see two blocks reminiscent of Customizer. On the left you can find Elements (1) and Global (2) tabs, allowing to change global settings and choose the content modules for adding and editing. There is a page layout which can be filled with the content modules on the right. 
              
   
   
   
3. Let’s edit the page that was built with Elementor. Click on one of the content sections you want to edit. It will be encased in the thin blue frame. It means that the section is active now.                                                                               
   
   
   

Section Options

Hover on the section to see the available options.

3. If you click on Add Column icon, another column will be added to the current section.
