Learn Elementor and unleash a powerful & free page builder for WordPress with this Elementor course. With it, you can drag and drop your way to a powerful website design. Elementor works a little differently from most page builders. For a start, you design live on the front-end of your site, not in the back-end Dashboard.
The free version is a page builder that comes with dozens of beautiful widgets and templates that you can use to build your web page content with pixel-perfect precision. It's an impressive and well-established page-builder.
The free version of Elementor will blow you away! If you have ever been frustrated trying to make your WordPress theme look like the demo you saw on the theme's homepage, you are not alone. Most themes require extra plugins and in-depth knowledge of the support documentation to make it look anything like the one that drew you to it in the first place. With Elementor Pro, you don't need to ever feel that frustration again. Elementor Pro gives you the same drag and drop page builder, but also allows you to create your own WordPress theme, designed exactly as you want it.
This Elementor course covers the free version of Elementor.
After a discussion of why you should learn Elementor, you'll install the plugin and a theme. We'll then cover:
How to borrow inspiration from other websites, to craft your own unique design. That includes choosing the right fonts and colors for your site.
We'll take a look at Hex color codes.
You'll become familiar with the front-end Elementor interface as we go through all of the menu and settings.
You'll get to know how an Elementor page is structured using sections, columns, and elements. At this stage, I'll set you a few design tasks and then go over the solutions in detail.
You'll learn how to use templates so that you can create a design element once, and re-use it as many times as you want. You can even export your templates from one site and import them into another.
You'll see why global widgets are a powerful asset in your toolbox.
Elementor offers you some great tools, including motion effects. These can be used to bring movement to your pages, so we'll look at those.
And finally, we'll look at mobile optimization. This powerful set of tools will allow you to check (and fix) your site design so that it looks great on a desktop, tablet, and mobile phone.
Elementor was created for every site owner that wants to create beautiful web content. It was created to allow you to design the site YOU want. This course teaches you how to use it!
