It\u2019s Aviva from Elementor. Today I\u2019ll show you how to create striking background gradients for your website buttons in Elementor, without using any code.<\/p><p>The button background gradient functionality in Elementor provides a number of settings, which you can customize to reflect the style of your website.<\/p><p>It\u2019s located in the background section of the button widget, so if you\u2019re not yet familiar with this widget, I recommend you first watch our dedicated button widget tutorial. (info card? Can SImon make a sticker?)<\/p><p>Tutorial<br \/>We\u2019ll begin with a simple gradient button. I\u2019ve already dragged a button widget onto this page, added the content, and styled it with a classic, or solid color background. Click the gradient icon to turn the solid color into a gradient. Cool.<\/p><p>Next we\u2019ll cover how to customize each of the individual gradient settings.<\/p><p>Select the first color for the gradient. You can use a custom or preset global color. Now select the second color. Control the transition between the gradient colors by adjusting the location for each color.<\/p><p>The location settings allow you to control how sharp, or subtle, the gradient transition will be.<\/p><p>Next, choose the gradient type. By default, it\u2019s set to linear, but you can also change to a radial gradient. We\u2019ll cover the radial settings in the next example. For this button, I\u2019ll switch it back to linear.<\/p><p>Now adjust the gradient angle. Use the slider to experiment with a range of angles, or type in an exact value for precision.<\/p><p>This button looks great. Now let\u2019s make it more interactive by adding a hover effect.<\/p><p>Click hover and change the background type to gradient.<br \/>Set the same color values as before; just tweak the location of the second color. Let\u2019s see it in action.<\/p><p>Looks great!<br \/>In the next example, we\u2019ll use a radial gradient background.<\/p><p>I\u2019ve already added a button and set the content and gradient colors. Let\u2019s change the gradient settings to create a different effect, and better suit this design.<\/p><p>First, change the gradient type from linear &#8211; to radial. The position setting will now display. Choose from the different options to control the starting position of the radial gradient.<\/p><p>Next, adjust the location of each color, until you get an effect like this.<\/p><p>For the hover style, choose the same settings used in the normal style, and invert the colors.<\/p><p>Nice!<br \/>For the final example, we\u2019ll use the gradient background to separate and highlight elements within the button.<\/p><p>Here too, I\u2019ve already added a button and set the content and gradient colors. To separate the icon from the text, adjust the location of each color, and change the angle of the gradient.<\/p><p>Next, click Hover and update the settings there accordingly.<\/p><p>Neat!<\/p><p>And there you have it! You now have the tools to create unique and engaging buttons throughout your site.<\/p><p>So go ahead, play around with the gradient background options&#8230;we can\u2019t wait to see what you come up with.<\/p><p>Thanks for watching!
