What is Elementor?

In short, Elementor is a popular page builder plugin for WordPress that allows users to create custom web pages with a drag-and-drop interface.

How can I check a website if it uses Elementor by looking at the source code?

It’s pretty simple to check if a website is using Elementor.

  1. Open the Page Source: Right-click on the webpage and select “View Page Source” or press Ctrl+U (Windows) or Cmd+Option+U (Mac) to open the page’s source code.
  2. Search for Elementor Plugin: Use Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac) to open the search function and look for the following keywords:
    • elementor: Look for any instances of “elementor” in the page source. For example, you may find something like plugins/elementor in the code, indicating that the Elementor plugin is being used.
    • elementor-css or elementor-js: Look for links to CSS and JavaScript files that contain “elementor” in their filenames, such as elementor.min.css or elementor.min.js.
  3. Inspect HTML Classes: Switch to the “Elements” tab in your browser’s developer tools (usually accessible via right-clicking on an element and selecting “Inspect”). Check for HTML classes that start with elementor-, such as elementor-sectionelementor-widget, or elementor-column. These classes are specific to Elementor layouts.
  4. Look for Elementor-Specific Comments: Elementor often includes comments in the HTML code. Search for or similar comments to identify sections built using Elementor.
  5. Check for Elementor Signature in “ Section: In the page source, look for references to Elementor in the head section, such as <meta name="elementor-version" content="x.x.x">, which indicates the version of Elementor being used.
  6. Search for Elementor’s Customization Features: Review any visible customization options in the WordPress admin area if you have access. Look for pages or settings that mention Elementor or its editor interface.

If you get matches, there is a good chance that the site will be built with Elementor.
