Elementor websites use a number of templates, some of which represent website parts that are used on multiple webpages. For example, headers and footers. When you create site parts, you have the option of displaying them on all your pages or selecting certain pages for them to appear on.
Set conditions for templates
Templates can appear on all or some of your pages. For instance, you can have the same header and footer appear on all your site’s pages or you can create a special header for your product pages.
To set conditions for templates to appear.
- Create a site part template.
- Click Publish to save the site part template.
The conditions window appears.
- Click Add condition.
- If you want this site part to appear on all pages, leave the default setting as is and click Save & Close in the lower right corner.
- If you want to limit the template to certain pages, use the left dropdown to determine if you’re going to Include or Exclude pages.
- The right dropdown determines which pages will be included or excluded.
See below for a full list of site part options.
Note
You can assign multiple conditions to a template. For instance a template can appear on all pages with the category Shirts and all pages with the category Pants.
Edit display conditions
After you assign display conditions to a template, you can go back and edit these conditions.
To edit display conditions:
- Open the template in the Elementor Editor.
- Click the down arrow
next to the Publish button.
- Select Display Conditions.
You can now edit the display conditions.
