Theme Builder for Elementor Pro

Single post, archive, search and 404 templates for Elementor.

Overview

What Theme Builder does

The Theme Builder in Bright Addons Pro builds on the free Header and Footer Builder and adds templates for single posts and pages, archives, search results and the 404 page, more display rules and header effects. Design every part of the site with Elementor, with free Elementor and any theme.

Features

What it can do

  • Seven template types: header, footer, single post or page, archive, search results, 404 page and popup.

  • Show on the entire site, front page, blog, single posts, archives, search, 404, logged in or out visitors, a post type or its archives, or chosen IDs.

  • Hide on rules and IDs that never show the template.

  • Most specific rule wins when several templates fit.

  • Header options: stays at the top, gets smaller, hides when scrolling down, or transparent over the hero.

  • Background color after scrolling for transparent headers.
