These templates append and override the current <a href=\"https:\/\/developer.wordpress.org\/themes\/basics\/template-hierarchy\/\">WordPress theme\u2019s page hierarchy<\/a>, layout settings, and CSS styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Elementor Website Theme Builder main screen, you can manage everything from one place. You can view every site part of your website, and ensure it has all the page templates it needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You may ask: If I am building a theme, can I export this theme to a zip file and install it on another site as a theme?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer is, not directly, in the same terms as hand-coding a traditional WordPress theme. You can, however, use the Import\/Export Tools and migrate the Theme Settings or complete content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Theme Builder in Elementor?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Elementor&#8217;s&nbsp;<em>Theme Builder<\/em>&nbsp;lets you customize every fundamental part of your WordPress site without coding including your&nbsp;<em>Header<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Footer<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Global Pages and Posts<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Global Archives&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;<em>WooCommerce Products and Product Archives<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Elementor Theme Builder Overview\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BWx8NQm2hdI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<em>Theme Builder&nbsp;<\/em>provides&nbsp;a visual overview of the site elements of your site, helping to guide you through each of the site parts you need to create in order to achieve a complete website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the&nbsp;<em>Theme Builder,<\/em>&nbsp;you can add new site parts (e.g. add a new Header), edit existing site parts, or delete site parts. Existing site parts include a visual indicator to inform you if a condition is applied to that site part. For example, a Global Post site part template may have a condition to only show for a particular category. A green indicator will let you see at a glance that this site part has a condition. A gray indicator is an indication that a site part has no condition set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Access The Theme Builder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways to access the <em>Theme Builder<\/em>.
