Overview
Once you have applied the website kit, you can tailor the website pages, posts, site parts, dialogs, and global settings.
The pages and posts of a kit contain default text and images that you can customize based on your requirements.
- Please refer to the Explore the Elementor Editor and create a page articles to see how Elementor Editor works before trying to customize the content of the imported website kit.
