Elfsight Blog or native Elementor widgets
Choose the Elfsight Blog when you want a standalone blog section with its own editor, AI for text and images, and a calendar for scheduling posts.
It runs on free Elementor through the HTML element, so you do not need Elementor Pro.
How to add the Blog widget to Elementor
Create your widget in the Elfsight editor first, then get the installation code with the “Add to website for free” button. Choose the method that fits your Elementor plan and the pages where the blog should appear.
Method 1: Add the blog to one page (Free)
- Go to Pages and open the page with Edit with Elementor.
- In the widgets panel, search for HTML.
- Drag the HTML element into the section where the blog should appear.
- Paste the installation code into the HTML Code field.
- Click Publish.
Good to know: use the HTML element, not Custom HTML – the widget may not work correctly with Custom HTML.
Method 2: Add the blog to all pages (Elementor Pro)
- Go to Elementor → Editor → Custom Elements → Code.
- Click New code and enter a name.
- Paste the installation code.
- Set the display condition to all pages.
- Click Publish.
Custom Code for all pages is available only in Elementor Pro.
Method 3: Add the blog to all pages (Free, classic WordPress themes)
- Go to Appearance → Customize → Widgets.
- Open an area shown on every page, for example the footer.
- Click + and select Custom HTML.
- Paste the installation code.
- Click Publish.
After publishing, open the live page and check that the blog shows up. If you use a caching plugin, clear the cache. The widget may not render in the Elementor editor until you publish or preview the page, so always check the published version. Need a hand? Visit our Help Center and we will help you add the blog.
Do I need Elementor Pro to use the Blog widget?
No. The widget works on free Elementor through the standard HTML element. Elementor Pro is only needed if you want to add it to all pages with Custom Code.
Should I use the HTML element or Custom HTML in Elementor?
Use the HTML element. The widget may not work correctly with Custom HTML.
How do I show the blog on all pages of my Elementor website?
With Elementor Pro, add the code under Elementor → Editor → Custom Elements → Code and set the display condition to all pages. On free Elementor with a classic WordPress theme, paste it into a Custom HTML widget in an area shown on every page, such as the footer.
Can I use the Blog widget in Elementor sections, columns and templates?
Yes. The widget fits any Elementor section, column and template and adapts to responsive designs.
The blog doesn't show up after I publish the page. What should I check?
Make sure you used the HTML element and clicked Publish, then open the live page: the widget may not render in the Elementor editor until you publish or preview. If you use a caching plugin, clear the cache.
Does the Blog widget work on WordPress.com?
Yes, on any paid WordPress.com plan (Personal, Premium, Business or Commerce). Free WordPress.com websites show the code as plain text.
Can I use AI-generated text and images in my blog posts?
Yes. The embedded AI helps you create articles and generate pictures for your posts. AI features are available on a Pro plan and higher.
Does the Blog support categories and tags?
Yes. You can group posts by categories and tags, so visitors find related articles faster.
Can I schedule posts to publish automatically?
Yes. Pick a date and time in the built-in calendar and the post goes live as planned.
What formatting options are available in the editor?
Headings, bullet lists, quotes, hyperlinks and internal references, all inside the Elfsight editor.
Can I add images and YouTube or Vimeo videos?
Yes. Upload images and embed YouTube or Vimeo videos by pasting their links into the editor.
Can I change fonts, colors and spacing of the blog?
Yes. Fonts, colors, spacing and layout settings can be adjusted in the Elfsight editor to match your Elementor theme.
Can I share a single post by link?
