Get started with the Elementor Editor V4

Last Update: June 1, 2026

The Elementor Editor V4 provides users with a far more efficient, streamlined approach to website building. For now, these features work together with Elementor Editor 3.x so you can create a full web page using elements from both versions.

Example: You can add a V4 Heading element to the canvas and the editor will automatically add it to an Editor 3.x container.
