Describe the Problem
Hello Elementor Team!
I work exclusively with eCommerce businesses, which means all of my projects are built using Elementor + WooCommerce. Since I’m definitely not the only one with this specialization, I’d love to get a rough feel for where the journey is heading regarding Elementor V4 and WooCommerce integration.
Currently, there are 4 specific WooCommerce widgets that are heavily used in my daily workflow:
From my perspective, these widgets all share a common problem: They are monolithic and quite rigid. I absolutely love the approach you took with the new V4 Forms widget, using the nested elements structure where all form fields can be placed individually, moved around, or left out entirely. Currently, the Woo widgets lack this kind of flexibility.
Currently, we have to rely on complex CSS, custom code, or third-party plugins to inject content into specific areas of the Cart or Checkout, which is not ideal for maintenance and page speed.
Propose a Solution
I would love to see the "Nested Elements" / modular approach applied to the WooCommerce widgets mentioned above. Is something like this planned for V4, or is there already a way to achieve this that I might be missing?
Additional Context
A modular structure for WooCommerce widgets would open up incredible possibilities:
One-Click-Upsells & Custom Content: We could easily drag and drop an upsell widget, a trust badge, or custom text exactly where we need it within the checkout flow.
GDPR & Compliance: Right now, various GDPR tools hook into specific spots in the checkout. If the checkout was a modular container with individual sub-elements, we could visually place these hooks exactly where they belong, making the whole legal setup much more practical and flexible.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
