Hi👋 First of all, congratulations to the Elementor team for this great update. Since I loved this feature, I first checked out the add widgets by click feature, and I'd like to point out a few things about it that are actually suggestions for improvement. 1- It is better to edit the existing text so that users know that they can add widgets in a new way.
2- I think it's very, very necessary, so that when we click to add a widget, the widget settings won't open automatically. To be honest, when I first tested this feature, after adding the widget, the widget settings opened. I think this is a major brake to improving the workflow of this feature. It is important to be able to add multiple widgets with a click without opening their settings. Then we can access its settings by clicking on the desired widget. 3- I'm not sure if you agree or not, but it's better to change some cursor in the editor by adding the "add widgets by click" feature. A : It is better to change the cursor in the widget icon to a pointer. Because now we can add widgets by clicking. B : If we add a widget in the page and place the mouse on it, it is better to use the cursor as Move. Because we are able to drag and drop added widgets. Please watch the video below and pay attention to the cursor in different situations. cursor.mp4 |

Hi @79ho3ein! Thank you for your feedback! 🙏
We will consider making this change, but our concern is that people wouldn't understand that they would need to click on a widget on the widget panel if they read that. Here's why:
How do you propose we handle these scenarios?
That's a good suggestion! Our thinking here is to maintain a familiar behavior similar to what we already have with the Drag and Drop (D&D) functionality. We are not sure if changing this behavior will be a positive change for the majority of our users. Our concern is that by not showing the widget settings right away, the user might think the widget was not added and might be inadvertently adding multiple widgets without realizing it. For now, we will maintain this behavior, but if you think this is a feature that will be beneficial to everyone, we would love to see a new 🚀 Feature Request, and we will follow it closely to see if there are enough users with the same need.
Interesting point. A: Our concern raised above applies to this as well. Changing the cursor might make users think they can't D&D anymore. This is part of how Elementor works and changing this behavior to prioritize clicking might alienate users instead of helping them. B: Similar to this, changing the cursor in the preview, could cause users to think they can't select things anymore. Both would make it less intuitive to regular users. Although we think the video you shared is really a great suggestion, we prefer to see if more users would vote for this feature. Would you be so kind to submit both feature requests? 🙏 |

Your concern is reasonable. Anyway, I think it's better to notify users that a new mode for adding widgets has been added. Because in the current situation, a large part of Elementor users will not be aware of this feature except by accident (note that a large part of users are never aware of the features that are released in new versions).
This is definitely an important feature. And I will definitely send a request for it. If you think this feature might be troublesome, you can add it optionally. For example, a switcher button in User preferences to enable/disable this feature. This is a very important feature for professional Elementor users. Thanks for the great comment 🥂 |

Add Widgets to the Editor with a ClickThe ability to add widgets with a click is really great. The only problem is that after adding any widget with a click, the widget settings are activated immediately. Global Styles Preview1- If Style Guide Preview is enabled, when we enter the global color or font section, the save changes button is enabled, even though I haven't made any changes there. 2- The Guide Preview section is very busy. Is there a special reason why the global font section is displayed in Guide Preview when we are in global color? A few small itemsIn some parts of the editor, the border is twice the normal size. User Preferences and all sections of site settings.
It has been several updates since the editor's user interface was updated. If all the tabs are closed in the tabs, there will be a lot of whitespace left, which will seriously hurt the ui. Is this gap intentional? I doubt it.
As a last point, is there a special reason that when we click on a widget, it is added to the canvas with a delay of about 1 second? |

Hello @Michaelgimii!
Thank you for the feedback! We will consider this and add it to our task list for the new Facelift. We have still a lot to change and will continue improving the UI. The border appears twice the normal size because you are seeing the border of the section below "glued" against the border of the tabs. It's clearly a part of our UI that is inconsistent since on the second image we still have a space. We will consider changing this across the interface to make it more consistent. We might remove the space everywhere, or add a space everywhere, we're still discussing the best way.
Please refer to my answer to this comment above. Given what I raised, do you think you have any further suggestions that cover all the points? |

Hi @momo-fr, can you elaborate? What exactly are you referring to? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
I apologize. But I did not understand what you mean. I didn't mean to completely remove the colors section in the Style Guide Preview. Rather, I meant that if we go to the global fonts section, there is no need to display the global colors in the same section. Because it only makes the page crowded. am i wrong? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
|
Hi @Michaelgimii, let me reformulate the question. You can actually interact with the items inside the style guide, making it easy to switch from colors to typography settings and change them. If we remove them, this will not be possible anymore, and would simply limit the user experience. We also have plans to add more functionality in the future too. And we added a menu to make it easy to navigate between sections. I understand what you proposed but I think we have it organized in a way that is both accessible but also separated. Hiding it would mean limiting its functionality. |

Lots of great new features in this beta, impressive as always. One feature suggestion for the Carousel: it could be useful to be able to 'freeze' the first slide, kind of like freezing the top row in Excel, so it always stays in the viewport. This may not be technically feasible, but I thought I'd throw it out there. |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
|
Hello @brent-e! That's a great suggestion. We plan to improve how carousels work soon, adding more functionality to them, but I'm not sure what you're asking here is actually feasible. Nonetheless, we will investigate it. It would be great if you submitted a new Feature Request, this way we can see if there is enough demand for this feature and try to implement it. 😉 |

Yes, I expect it could get complicated :) I'll add that feature request. |

I don't see any point of adding a freeze slide. One, the arrow will always be at the leftmost side of the container which users expect it to be at the nearest moving elements. Since that is a static element, it is far better as a separate container then make the nested carousel 2 column beside it? That static slide only contributes to the DOM-depth and size doing nothing. I think the idea came from the static ads for loop grid but for slides, I think it's unecessary. |

With the introduction of container and other improvement. The layer structure became frequently used. Dragging pre-selected widgets will only drag one widget at a time. My work around is to copy those widgets instead, paste it somewhere else then delete the widgets from original location. Which I find counter intuitive... 
|
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
|
Hi @Henzxon, I believe the reason why this is not possible is because there are different types of elements, with different properties, and not all can be dragged and dropped around or in some contexts. This is why there is no bulk d&d because it would create conflicts that could make the user experience difficult. If you think this should be an Elementor feature, please submit a new 🚀 Feature Request, and we will consider it in the future if there is enough demand (votes) from other users. |

This is nothing critical and just a cosmetic change but I have some suggestions to the widget panel contents. Also, I think the add to favorite should not be a right-click. Perhaps a mouse hover then a star appears would be better? |

When we add widgets using click, it is added with a delay of about one second. Is this on purpose? Definitely, if it is added immediately after the click, it will bring a much better experience. Please check this item. |

Hi @Michaelgimii, this is not on purpose. The action takes some time depending on your server configuration or your machine. When I do this on my test website the action does not take any time to occur. If you're working on Local, this could be related to your local config. From my experience, Local environments tend to be slower, especially if you're using Local by Flywheel. Edit._Test.3.14-beta_.with.Elementor.-.30.May.2023.mp4 |

Hey @Michaelgimii, Apologies for the delay. 🙏 We removed the Save ad Default option only from the Main/Parent Container of each nested item (In Tabs, Carousel, Menu) because there is a set of rules, that won't allow you to duplicate, copy, delete, and manipulate these containers in some ways. If we allow you to Save these rules as Default it would apply them to all containers, and you wouldn't be able to perform those tasks on them anymore, breaking the usability of containers. I hope you can understand. |

Beta 5 UPDATED - PLEASE READ BELOW!
Hi Elementor Beta Testers 👋
We are incredibly excited to introduce our new beta versions, Elementor 3.14. Elementor Pro includes a new Carousel widget, which will enable you to nest elements within each slide in the carousel for unlimited design creativity. With this version, you can also incorporate strategic ad placements in your Loop Grid to grab your visitors attention, in addition to a multitude of additional design capabilities so you can make beautiful websites that stand out.
Try out our new beta versions and let us know what you think about our newest additions, which include:
[Pro] Introducing: New Nested Carousel for Infinite Design Possibilities
This version includes a new Carousel widget, which is nestable. To use the new widget, you will need to activate the Container, and Nested Elements features by going to WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Settings.
Up until now, Elementor included a number of Carousels - Image Carousel, Media Carousel (Pro), Testimonial Carousel (Pro), and Reviews (Pro). Each of these Carousels came with a predefined layout, and you couldn’t adjust their layout, or add new elements like text or image that weren’t already part of the widget.
The new Carousel Widget is nestable, which provides you with unlimited flexibility. Each slide in the Carousel is a Container, allowing you to add any element you’d like to and adjust its layout to your heart’s content. Additionally, the Style and Advanced tab in the new Carousel widget include all the capabilities available in the other Carousel Widgets.
To make it easier to drag elements into each slide, we disabled the Autoplay and Infinite Loop features in the Editor. These features are still accessible, as usual, and you’ll be able to see them in action in the preview.
How to Test It:
[Pro] Static Item Position in the Loop Grid - Display Ads and Other Static Content
Injecting a different template, with static content into your Loop Grid is an excellent way to promote a certain product, event, or other piece of content that you want to have stand out from the rest of your Loop Grid. This update includes the new Static Item Position feature, as part of the Loop Grid, to enable you to inject a static item in between the posts or products in your Loop Grid.
Now, when you apply an alternate template, you will have a new toggle that enables you to add a Static Item Position. When you enable it, and you choose a template (or create a new one), it will display a static item in the position of your choice within the grid.
For example, you can apply an alternate template to promote an event, a certain product, and more and inject the template in the second position of your Loop Grid. In this case, the static item will take the place of the second Post or Product in the Grid, and the second Post or Product will be bumped into third place.
To use the Loop Builder features, you will need to ensure you have the Loop Feature enabled on your website. You can enable it from the WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Features.
How to Test It:
[Pro] Important - Loop Carousel - HTML Changes in Pagination and Navigation
Elementor 3.14 introduces potentially breaking changes to Loop Carousel. The HTML behind the navigation and pagination of this widget (the dots / fraction options and arrows) have been updated. This enables Elementor to fix the position of the navigation and pagination indication when using Containers. Additionally, these changes will facilitate new styling features in the future.
If you applied Custom CSS to these areas, we recommend that you check your website and ensure that the HTML changes did not change your Loop Carousel’s display, and make necessary adjustments if it did. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Introducing the Global Styles Preview
Global styles are the foundation of your website’s design system, and enable you to ensure you are using the same colors and fonts throughout your website. To provide you with better insight into your website’s global colors and fonts, you can enable the new Global Styles Preview, available in your Site Setting’s Global Colors and Global Fonts. This will be available as an experiment that is active by default on Elementor Hosted website, but needs to be enabled manually for Plugin websites.
Enabling this preview will cover your entire page with the Style Guide Preview, which will showcase your global colors, and fonts, showing you what your global styles actually look like on a web page. Any changes you make to your global styles will automatically update your preview, so you can see the impact of your changes, instantly. Additionally, any time you click a color or font in the Global Preview, it will open the Color Picker or Font Picker respectively, so you can make changes seamlessly.
Elementor UI and UX Improvements
Elementor 3.14 includes a variety of usability and interface updates that will streamline, improve, and accelerate your workflow - so you can spend more time designing your website.
Add Widgets to the Editor with a Click
Up until now, if you wanted to add a widget to the Editor, you would need to drag it in. Sometimes, it became difficult to drag it into the specific Container or Column you wanted it to be in. With this update, clicking any widget in the widget panel will automatically add it to the latest Container you were focused on. If the last area you focused on in the Editor was another widget, it will place the new widget beneath the one you previously focused on.
Please Note: If you’re still using Sections and Columns, you can only add one inner section in each column. Clicking the Inner Section widget again will not add a second inner section inside a column, and will not provide a visual indication of this being an impossible action, which would have been visually indicated if you tried dragging it in.
Visual Indication of Page Parts
When working on pages that include theme parts such as a header, footer, loop item, and more, it would sometimes be difficult to transition between the page body and the other theme parts, as you would have to click directly on the handle to switch between them.
With this update, if you’re working on the page body, and want to edit the Header for example, hovering with your mouse over the header will add a semi-transparent overlay that when clicked, anywhere within the area - not only on the handle, will direct you to edit the header. Similarly, when editing a theme part like the header and hovering over the page body, a semi-transparent overlay will appear that when clicked will direct you to edit the page body.
Top Bar Enhancements
The Top Bar, a new feature first introduced in Elementor 3.12, was created in React to improve scalability of introducing new features in the future. The Top Bar also centralizes many of the actions you perform in Elementor, in one single area to promote best practices when using Elementor. In this version, Elementor introduces three new capabilities to the Top Bar, available as an Experiment that you can enable by going to: WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Features → Editor Top Bar.
Add a new Page - when you click the Page Indication area in the middle of the Top Bar, you can now also add a new page without having to switch back and forth between the Editor and the WordPress Dashboard.
In Place Editing for Website Parts - when you create a new page from the Top Bar, it won’t reload the entire Editor, but rather just the canvas itself, enabling you to edit the next website part, in-place to reduce the loading time and let you get to work quicker.
“Manage Website” Renamed “Exit to WordPress” - following your requests, we’ve replaced Manage Website with Exit to WordPress, which will take you to the back end of the website part you were working on.
WordPress and WooCommerce Functions Now Available Also in Elementor
To reduce your need to switch back between Elementor and WordPress and streamline your workflow, we’ve added a number of capabilities available in the WordPress Page Settings to the Elementor Page Settings, including: order (for hierarchical post types), and the ability to allow comments to a page / post. Additionally, if you have a WooCommerce website, you can also set your shop page by going to the WooCommerce Settings panel within Elementor’s Site Settings.
New Keyboard Shortcuts
Elementor 3.14 introduces a number of changes to the keyboard shortcut panel, available by clicking ‘CMD’ / ‘CTRL’ +
?.C, which was missing from the keyboard shortcuts panel.Added two new keyboard shortcuts:
CMD/CTRL+SHIFT+Uto open the “User Preferences” panel.CMD/CTRL+SHIFT+Yto open the “Page Settings” panel.More Styling Options in Various Widgets
Tabs Widget
This update includes two new capabilities in the Additional Options section (formerly Responsive Settings) in the Content tab of the Editing panel:
Please Note - The above features are only available when using the new Tabs widget with nesting capabilities. Ensure you activate the “Nested Elements” feature by going to the Elementor menu in WordPress → Elementor → Settings → Features, and save.
--
Icon Widget - now, you can choose fit to size in the style tab of the Icon widget to modify the amount of space an uploaded SVG icon takes up. This is especially handy if your icon’s width and height aren’t the same.
[Pro] Menu Widget - with Elementor 3.14, you can add a Divider to the Menu Items in the Menu widget. Dividers are located in the Style tab, enabling you to adjust the divider’s width, height, color, etc. The Divider won’t appear when the Menu is switched for an accordion (in certain breakpoints).
Image Widget - in the style tab, when you adjust the height you are able to choose the object fit - default, fill, cover, or contain. Now, when you choose cover, you can also choose an Object Position to position the image according to your needs.
[Pro] Call To Action Widget - the styling options of the Call to Action button are now matched to the Button widget’s styling options to create a consistent editing experience. Now you can set the button padding, add a box-shadow and a text-shadow, just like you could in the Button widget.
[Pro] Gallery Widget - previously, when you add a link to the media file of images in a gallery, it would open a lightbox or link to the image directly, based on the Lightbox setup in your Site Settings. With this update, you can control the lightbox display for each gallery widget overriding the default site settings lightbox options.
Performance & Accessibility
Button widget - added conditional ROLE Attributes based on whether the user set a link to the button or not.
Accordion & Toggle widgets - updated the widgets to be compliant with W3C recommendations. Now, all warnings you previously would have seen in lighthouse reports have been fixed.
[PRO] Video Playlist widget - changed the loading mechanism of all images to lazy load to improve the page’s initial loading time. Additionally, to improve SEO the missing ALT attributes have been added to the playlist’s cover images.
