Working with Header

Hi @mari,
Elementor is working only on the page’s content.
It doesn’t affect the fixed elements, i.e. the header, footer etc.

Hi,

Elementor can only work with page content.
Actually in the moment I write this I don’t think there is a builder that can do that.

Hi, I have been using Beaver Builder and there it is now possible to create say a row of modules, then save as a template, then use a shortcode to display that in any available hook area.

That way you can have anything created in BB appear above the header for example, which then would become the actual visible header if the theme header was disabled.

Only just started playing with Elementor and it looks great, would be smashing if something like that couldhappen in the future.

… don’t need that in elementor – just use generatepress theme with it and you can do what you want to do ??

How does that work Dasigna? I am using GP but I don’t see how you can display elementor created row in a GP hook area?

Or do you mean you could create a one row page, save that and then hook the page content into a hook area? Sorry if I am missing the obvious!

@neil04000
dont know which gp version you use – but with pro, there are plenty of possibilities such as ‘generate page header’ or `disable elements’ … and then just use elementor to replace what you need.

until now i did not need to throw something into the hook area i’ve buildt in elementor – for that maybe ask specifically in gp-forum?

Thanks Dasigna. New to GP but have the Pro, thought the generate page header was just for custom header on individual pages rather than site wide.

I will dig deeper.

Just been in touch with Tom from GP and what would be needed is for it to be added as a feature by Elementor, as Builder Beaver do with shortcode.

Can I add this as a feature request? Any place to do that or will this thread be noticed by the devs?
