Just an update, there is already a Core 3.15.0-beta2 release due to a bug we found that needed patching. Please update to the latest version. Elementor Pro remains on beta1. |

A few notes about the new accordion widget. 1- In the Interactions section, if the controls for the Default State and Max Items Expanded options are switcher, they will have a much better ux than the currently select controls. 2- If we select stretch in the Item Position option, the Spacing option in the icon settings (in the Style tab) will not work. So it will be much better if it is conditionally hidden in this case. 3- I think it would be much better if you set the border to 0 by default in this widget (in style tab > Accordion and tab section). We will activate it if needed. Finally, I have a question about this widget. If we use this widget to display product categories in the menu, will it be wrong from the SEO point of view? |

Hello @79ho3ein, thanks for your feedback! 🙏
That's a great point to be made! However, we are currently using the Select controls because we plan to add more options to these controls in the future! 😉
That's correct. We are considering hiding this option conditionally. We might change this behavior in the next beta releases if see this won't negatively affect responsive options. You can change the position on a per-device option, and hiding the style tab option might negatively affect the possibility of different choices for positions.
Thanks, we will consider this. 🙏
If you check the markup, you'll see that we purposefully chose to use semantic markup for this widget. This means it's accessible by default with minimal configurations. For this we use the To answer your question, it will depend on how important you deem the content inside the accordion is, so it depends on your objectives. |

I saw that the icon box and image box having grouped position controls in the changelog. I have had a look and noticed the controls do not have a responsive indicator primarily for the vertical option and it is adjustable on desktop and tablet but not on mobile in the editor. Just very odd behaviour. Ideally, if the options are not adjustable then the input should be disabled on other responsive views. For the image box widget it doesn't make sense for the image position to be set left aligned on desktop but on mobile it aligns to the top but controls do not reflect that.

Unfortunately, I cannot participate in this beta version, but I have some questions about this version. 1- If there are too many categories in the new filter widget, will the categories be stacked on top of each other, or is it possible to enable horizontal scrolling (like the tabs widget) for it? 2- Can we control the amount of offset in the offset option? Especially in Both offset. 3- Will we see more filters (such as checkbox, price range, etc.) in Elementor in the future? 4- Elementor team, is there still no news about this bug? Only because of this bug, I have not been able to use the mega menu until now. It is now 3 versions since Megamanu was released. Please don't forget it in this version. I want to get rid of jet menu. |

I'm not sure if I follow, can you elaborate? I'm assuming you mean the space between items?
Yes, we plan to add more filter types like checkbox, select (dropdown), and radio.
We are still investigating this issue. This is something that might require some breaking changes. This is why we haven't updated the issue. We appreciate your patience in waiting for a resolution. Please, remember to keep the conversation about this beta. Your feedback about the features being discussed here is crucial for releasing a stable and reliable plugin. We are eager to know about your experience with these new features. Thanks 🙏 |

I really like the changes and finally we get more styling options for the carousel and finally the nested accordion! I noticed the following things during the first test: 
First of all, thanks for the interactions, also a very long-awaited useful feature! I noticed that there is another icon next to the Collapse and Expand icon. I suspect this is an error. 
And while styling the carousel, I noticed that the settings for navigation and dots are not displayed correctly in the editor. The dots disappear completely and the color of the arrows is only displayed very transparently, while everything works as desired on the live site. But otherwise a great update. I will not test AI because I have no interest in it or use other tools if necessary. Thanks for the great work and have a good beta phase! |

Hi @fabigrafo, thanks for joining the discussion! 🙏
For this new widget, we are using semantic HTML. If you inspect the code you will see that we are using the Click me to revealHi, I'm the content.You can see that the browser automatically renders the caret arrow, just like in your screenshot. Elementor applies some styles to hide that icon and show our own. It seems that for some reason the required styles are not applying to you. This could mean a couple of things, one of them being cache. Please, ensure that you have cleared the cache and Regenerated the CSS. After testing on multiple browsers, I couldn't reproduce your issue. Also, check the theme you're using. Some themes apply specific styles for details and can override the styles applied by Elementor.
Please keep in mind that due to some limitations, we can't enable the infinite scroll inside the editor for the Nested Carousel widget because it would mean duplicating content. This is why you will see dots and arrows in the I hope this was clear enough to understand why we decided to disable that behavior. 😉 |

Hey @perks98, we are working on our Q3 roadmap event as @fabigrafo correctly mentioned above, and we will update the roadmap page to reflect our plans for the next quarter. There is nothing to worry about. However, we are not going to make any polls. We are actively and constantly following the Feature Request Discussions, and we will include the most voted-for ones when we are ready to add them to our queue. There are still plenty of features to add to our roadmap, as well as plenty of improvements to do to our products. I assume you are asking this because people have been complaining we are not answering the requests. Let me assure you that we do follow all of them very closely. But answering each one of them was never the primary objective in this first phase of organizing GitHub issues, bugs, and requests. This is why Feature Requests are in Discussions now, so users can vote and discuss them without requiring our input. Our initial involvement is to observe. As soon as we have finished our triaging and migration phases, we will address each discussion. For now, we are only taking notes and considering requests for our next roadmaps. 😉 |

If we enable offset for carousels, They are rendered with a delay when reloading the page in the frontend. In fact, at first it looks like the offset is not active. Then, after about a second or two, the offset is applied. This creates an unpleasant feeling for users. It should be noted that earlier there was a similar problem for the jet woobuilder plugin and their team fixed it. Like Elementor, they use swiper js. |

Hey @Bovelett 🙂 With Elementor 3.15, the former "Accessibility Improvements" experiment that was applied to a series of components will now be merged into the core plugin, and will no longer be a feature that can be turned on/off.
All accessibility improvements that were under this "conditional flag" will now be the standard for all Elementor websites going forward. 😉 |

Good updates, some useful stuff here. For the Taxonomy Filter, it would be nice if it could indicate hierarchies. In testing, I set up this post category structure: Books
But in vertical alignment there's nothing to show the hierarchy. This could be addressed with indents for child categories (or maybe dropdowns in the future.) Mockup below. Also, a minor point: the 'Get Help' link in the Taxonomy Filter pane is broken: https://go.elementor.com/widget-taxonomy-filter/

Hi @brent-e! Thanks for the feedback! 🙏 We will definitely consider this for future releases! That's a great suggestion!

I just watched the 3.15 review video from YouTube and first of all congratulations to the team for these great changes. But there are some very important points about the new carousels changes that I want to mention. These are related to new options in carousels.1- Why offset changes in carousels are not visible in the editor? 2- Why did you put custom navigation position controls in the widget's content tab? This is the first time you make this decision in Elementor. The custom position is related to the style and should be in the style tab of the widget. Please move the navigation custom position settings to the Style tab. 3- When we choose custom position for pagination and navigation, two options spacing in pagination and position in navigation should be hidden. Because if we use custom position, we won't need these two options and they will only be misleading. Please think more about the above three items to optimize the settings in the widget before the official release. The customization options are currently very scattered. Features that are not currently available in carousels but are very important.1- fade effect for nested carousel (Now there is only slide effect). Thanks |

Hey @Michaelgimii, Thanks for the feedback! 🙏
I covered the reason why in this comment, but let me try to explain it better: This only affects the Nested Carousel widget, and the main reason is because of how the Swiper.js library works regarding showing the same slide more than once, like, for example, when you have
Thanks for the feedback. We will discuss this with the team and consider regrouping and hiding the controls conditionally! 🙏
We have plans to improve these style options in a future release! Unfortunately, we needed to release them separately to ensure the stability of the new features before adding further controls. 😉 |

For more flexibility in the accordion widget, if possible, could you please add the border-radius control to the accordion section, so that it can be controlled in active mode? For example, we want accordions to have a border radius of 10px, and after opening, the border radius will remain the same. Currently, because the control of the boundary radius cannot be controlled in the active mode, for this reason we will face the problem mentioned in the image below.

Elementor team, adding a new widget for taxonomy filter was a great decision. Because if I'm not mistaken, you first decided to integrate this widget with Loop Grid(filter bar). As a quick suggestion, it would be great if you added a separate widget for loop grid pagination. This widget can be connected to the Loop grid widget just like the filter taxonomy widget. I have written more details here. Please read it. thanks |

@fabigrafo, @m1ga, and @Michaelgimii! Thank you for the feedback! 🙏 I want to also emphasize Amitai's section in the Roadmap event. In fact, that's the takeaway we should focus on when it comes to this Quarter: We are temporarily shifting focus in this quarter to improve all the new features we added so far, bringing them to maturity, fixing reported bugs, and adding some of the missing or requested features that we had already planned for them. This includes Containers, Nested Elements, Accessibility improvements, Editor functionalities, AI, and other features introduced since we started adding Elementor Experiments. This doesn't mean Elementor will stop innovating.We simply want to focus on making all the new features and elements as stable as possible, responsibly, based also on all the feedback we received from you, and our will to improve the quality of our products. Since we are indeed already in Q3, some of the features on our Roadmap are indeed already part of this beta. In addition to that, we will continue to work on performance and infrastructure. The Elementor plugin in general has received a lot of improvements and will continue to receive them, as we work on the future of the editor. This will allow us to introduce more features in the future, like the CSS Class System for example, without breaking backward compatibility. This is why we decided we needed to shift focus temporarily. It's important to note that Elementor is not just a plugin. Elementor is a company that has more than one product, and our Roadmap Event reflects that. While some users may not use all of our products, we are still addressing all of our user base, in a responsible manner. This is Elementor communicating, and the more communicative we are, the better for everyone. So while we do understand not all users want to know about all of our plans, we are still sharing them with everyone and this should be a good thing. Not all companies do this. As for the new features, and how they will be implemented, unfortunately, I can't disclose that @Michaelgimii, because we are still deciding how they will work and how they will be implemented. R&D is a constant job, and things might change at the last minute if we see a need to do so. We don't want to create expectations that might not be met down the road. I hope you can understand that. What I can say is this, but please keep in mind these will likely change, so don't create expectations:

thank you @nicholaszein, Thank you very much for answering our questions. you are the best. I don't have any questions, but if you don't mind, I would like to make a few points about the ajax paining feature and custom not found message for loop builder, which are very important. Because as you said you are researching future features on the roadmap. Ajax paginationAjax pagination is a great feature and I'm glad it's on your roadmap. But I have 3 suggestions about it that I hope you will consider. 1- I think ajax pagination should be a new widget. It would be much better to develop a standalone widget. custom not found message for loop builderI think this feature should be released in two ways. 1- When there are no products or posts to display in the listing(loop). I hope this will help the Elementor team's research. cheers🥂 |

I've had a short hour to test some areas of this beta, the below are my notes or issues I have encountered. I haven't listed the container handle problem as @Joliamendi has already mentioned it. Taxonomy Filter - general personal notes:
Taxonomy Filter - no items to show: 2023-07-14.10-07-52.mp4Please add an option to the loop grid or the filter so if no items are present it displays a custom message, like no items matching that term or a custom Elementor template so users can be creative when it is empty. It would also be good if that although more than one filter can be used it would be good if it effects the other filter so it is also dynamically updated if toggled in the filter option to be dynamic based on other filters (JetSmartFilters can do this). Taxonomy Filter - weird scrolling behaviour: 2023-07-14.10-07-03.mp4The 'Horizontal Scroll' option when enabled is very clunky. It doesn't scroll at the same speed as when you drag, I think the longer the list the slower it is, and it has a behaviour where you drag to the end of the view and wiggle your mouse it continues to move in one direction. Personally I think it could it could do with a back to the beginning arrow once you have passed the second item in the list. Accordion - duplicate issue: 2023-07-14.09-25-22.mp4When you adjust the styling of the accordion widget, primarily the space between items to distance from content options, when you then go to duplicate a tab item it adds to contents outside the duplicate. When you save the mistake and view on the frontend it seems fine, so only happens in the editor. Also when you add a few item after it fixes it in the editor. Loop Grid - trouble getting back to page: 2023-07-14.09-53-05.mp4For the loop grid you can go in to edit the template then go back out. But if the grid is at the top of the page and you go in to edit the template, you can't get back. Users will likely never add a grid to the top but just something I noticed when quickly creating a page to test the grid. Loop Carousel - trouble to click on the parent container: 2023-07-14.09-20-46.mp4Similar to the Loop Grid issue, when at the top of the page the container handle presents down rather than up, but for the Loop Carousel widget the edit template is also in the center so you can't click on the parent container when at the top of the page. |

@nicholaszein thanks for the response. I have a few more considerations below.

Hi @perks98, Taxonomy FilterApologies, I was not clear enough about the Each element on a page gets its own Elementor ID. This ID is not a CSS ID. It's a unique string of numbers and letters generated automatically by the editor. If you inspect the code you'll see that each element receives a class like It's important to note that these IDs do not change. They will remain the same for each element regardless if you update the document. The only way you could lose them is if you delete the element. In this case, the Taxonomy Filter widget will automatically revert back to the initial state where it says "Choose a Loop Grid to view the Taxonomy Filter". I completely understand your suggestions related to the URL parameter and the idea of giving the option to customize the value. However, we must not forget that Elementor is a tool for all types of users, and all levels of experience, and skills. For this reason, we always strive to find a middle ground that will be simple for all use cases. Simple does not mean functionally limited, it means intuitive and easy to use. In this particular case, we researched a lot and considered lots of different ways of building a filter system that is not too complex to set up. We also, when possible, don't want to induce users to errors or cause confusion with multiple ways of interactions. We settled with an automatic system that cannot cause confusion or break functionality if wrongly used. This is why we decided to settle with this logic. I hope you can understand our decision. In this case, we do not plan to change it. As for the list of Loop Grids, it will always be related to the document structure. The first one is the first Loop Grid added to the document, and so forth. We will consider ways of improving the identification of each one, but this is probably going to be something for a future release. But thanks for sharing your feedback about that! 🙏 Support for other loop-related widgetsUnfortunately, we can't add support for other loop-related widgets (Posts, Archive Posts, Portfolio, Products, and Archive Products) because they use legacy code that is incompatible with these new features. We are considering adding support for the Loop Carousel, and we might revisit adding support for these other widgets in the future if we see there is enough demand for them. But this would mean having to rebuild them from scratch, which would break backward compatibility. We really want to avoid that at all costs, unless we need to improve accessibility and there is no other way. Another issue is WooCommerce. It uses its own query and own template system, and adding support for it is complex and complicated, and reaches a level of unreliability that we are not comfortable with. This leads me to answer your next suggestion: Page reload or Ajax optionsWe can't control the functionality of themes and other plugins. We can only control ours. When implementing the Ajax option we will ensure our solutions are compatible and we can maintain their compatibility. With the Loop Grid, this is a guarantee. With other widgets, especially the Products one, which uses the default WooCommerce templating system and only adds a few style controls over it. Themes and plugins can manipulate this template. We wouldn't be able to manipulate what they manipulate without having to add individual support for the thousands of themes and plugins that do that, and this is just not practical. With the Loop Grid we have total control over the functionality. So this is where we are going to focus on and work to improve. As you said, it's not yet powerful enough, but we haven't finished it yet, and we do plan to add more features to it. I hope this clarifies your points. Let me know if you have any further feedback or any other questions. 😉 |

Hi @nicholaszein, sorry if I sound like a negative Nancy but I think what the Elementor team needs to understand is yes make things simple for everyday users but you also have veteran users that would like more options that add more flexibility even if the option could break other things if not used right. So like the ID you can keep to default being the generative option but just have another option for custom input, even if it adds an altered parameter so it knows the id is custom like an extra hyphen before the ID. The thing is JetSmartFilters seem to render Elementors product widgets just fine with their filters, which is why I think it is odd to not want to support them (your own widgets) also. I exclusively use product widgets for eCommerce sites so you are saying to me this will not see the light of day on my sites unless forced on the loop items group of widgets. With your 'Page reload or Ajax options' point I can understand Ajax not working in all instances on certain sites due to theme and plugin interventions (I have had this issue before) which is why page-reload would work better as it reloads all the resources again for the new render. I just hope your team takes a leaf out of the book of the popular plugins like JetEngine around loops and the filtering dynamic capabilities of JetSmartFilters. Of cause not copy exactly and to do your own thing, but not in a limited way like it feels sometimes. My growing concern with Elementor is that they add features that extend Woocommerce but do not support Woocommerce certain practices in favour of Elementor way of doing things, which is why I struggle to want to use Elementor built eCommerce widgets and can't use the loop items for bigger eCommerce sites. Overall just feels like Elementor is very one direction with the future journey of the taxonomy filter. Please can your team at least consider supporting your own widgets for filters (primarily the product ones), I think in this case it shouldn't have to be a if demand is there type of view... I know this is a negative comment but I think I just had higher hopes and ideas of usage that I have experienced with other similar plugins that this feature doesn't intend to tread down. This is an alpha experiment but I'm not filled with confidence in my hopes to use it down the line, other than again just for simple sites. I won't write anything more about the Taxonomy Filter at this stage hopefully unless important. |

Don't worry @perks98, the idea of this beta program is to gather feedback and fix unforeseen issues with the changes or features we are introducing. Regardless of our decisions, all feedback is relevant and taken into consideration. JetEngine and JetSmartFilters use a different approach to filtering, which doesn't fit on our model. But of course we will consider your suggestions. Thanks! 🙏 |

I think if the horizontal scrolling option in the taxonomy filter had the possibility to activate the next, prev icon, it would be much more useful for the desktop. The current situation is a bit difficult for desktop users. Most importantly, users don't realize at first glance that the taxonomy filter is scrollable. Therefore, the presence of prev and next icons can be very useful. (I understand that this is the beginning of the road. Just for suggestion) |

Hi @Joliamendi, that's a great suggestion! We will consider it, although this could require the usage of the Swiper library (and a change in the markup which is currently semantic and accessible), and might be "overkill" for a simple functionality like the horizontal scroll. We are definitely going to improve the horizontal scroll behavior to avoid issues reported here (weird scroll behavior). We'll kip your suggestions in mind! 🙏 |

Hi @Michaelgimii, We are constantly working on improving the UI, especially under the hood. During that process, some UI components might not look as expected. We will of course continue to improve them and work to create a better framework to handle the entire UI. We will definitely take your remarks into consideration! Thanks for the feedback! 🙏 |

Will you improve this very ugly transition and the loading time? my solution is improve the loading time and let us set any transition option like fade, seconds, etc. Maybe similar like the multiple gallery widget (pro). This looks beautiful. And I know it's dynamic content. But then I ask me, why other developer of third party plugins solve this very well? Thanks for your attention. ugly-loading-filter-3-15.mp4Still ugly under free beta 2 and pro beta 3, 3.15! |

Hey @fabigrafo, thanks for raising your concerns. We are planning to improve this transition at a later phase. However, regarding loading time this definitely depends on many factors. We created the filter system to work as fast and performant as possible using the latest techniques of pulling data from the REST-API. This ensures a faster response from the filter system and doesn't require reloading of assets, only of content, but since this is only part of the equation, the time it takes for the filter to load will depend on your server performance and connection quality. |

@nicholaszein Okay, but apart from the loading time, there is definitely room for improvement for the eyes. 👀 |

Hi @79ho3ein, my apologies! 🙏 I thought that I had shared my video recording in my comment with the results of my testing. Please check the updated comment to see it in action. Also, please ensure you have cleared your localhost cache and browser cache. I've seen in the past that you've had some issues with your local environment when editing with Elementor. Usually, these installations have some type of cache configuration that may affect your editing experience if not cleared properly after an update. You should also consider increasing some of the resource limits to meet Elementor's Requirements. Especially these ones: == Server Environment ==
MySQL version: mariadb.org binary distribution v5.6.42-84.2 => 5.9+
PHP Version: 7.3.2 => 7.4+
PHP Memory Limit: 128M => 256M+
PHP Max Input Vars: 1000 => 5000+
== WordPress Environment ==
Memory limit: 40M => 256M+
Max Memory limit: 256M => 256M+
I hope this helps. |

Hi @nicholaszein, I don't think it is related to cache and other similar cases. From what I saw in your video, it seems that you checked this issue immediately after adding the nested accordion widget, and I don't see any bugs in this situation either (on my localhost). But when I make changes in the widget settings, I encounter this bug. Changes like Space between Items - border (active and hover). Please export the template in Elementor and check the bug again. Is there still a problem? |

Hello I've just seen the new update go up! |

Hi @CarterStevens1, That's correct. Due to the nature of how the offset option works, and to maintain backward compatibility, the offset is applied using CSS. This means that when you reach the end of the carousel there will still be an offset that could not appear complete (empty space). For this reason, it requires an infinite scroll. |

Beta UPDATED - PLEASE READ BELOW!

Hey Beta testers, 👋
The beta version of Elementor 3.15 is here and we're excited for you to explore its new features. Elementor Pro now includes a Taxonomy Filter widget, allowing visitors to filter product and post listings based on various taxonomies. Release 3.15 also includes a new Accordion widget, new styling capabilities and extends Elementor AI.
Try out these beta versions and let us know what you think about our newest additions, which include:
[Pro] New Taxonomy Filter Widget - Allow Visitors to Filter Listings
The much-awaited Taxonomy filter is finally here. It allows visitors to filter listings displayed in Loop Grids according to taxonomies, making it easier for them to find what they are looking for and increase their engagement with your website.
To add a Taxonomy Filter to your website, drag the new widget onto the page and connect it to a Loop Grid using the "Select loop grid" control. This control displays grids in a dropdown menu in the order they appear on the page. The widget will automatically offer the taxonomies relevant to that Loop Grid, and will also adjust based on whether your Loop Grid displays products or posts.
After connecting the filter to a Loop Grid and setting the taxonomy, you can customize all of its different elements. For example, you can set its layout direction to horizontal or vertical. This would be useful if you want to display your Loop Grid and Taxonomy Filter side by side. You can also choose the colors and position of your titles, hide or display empty categories, the first category (all), and control the depth of displayed taxonomies. Additionally, each filter automatically creates a deep link to allow visitors to share a direct link to a chosen category or tag.
Pro tip: To allow visitors to filter listings based on a category AND a tag, you can place two Taxonomy Filters and connect them both to the same Loop Grid.
To use this widget, activate the Taxonomy Filter Bar and the Loop Grid features by going to WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Features.
How to Test It:
Introducing - New Accordion Widget for Complete Design Flexibility
This version introduces the latest member of the nested elements series - the Accordion. Like the Menu, Tabs, and Carousel widgets, the Accordion's nested capabilities turn each item into a container, for unlimited flexibility, allowing you to insert any widget and content type.
This widget combines the best features of the previous Accordion and Toggle widgets and allows you to fine-tune your visitors' experience by giving you the ability to set its default state. You can choose to have the first item expanded by default or have all items collapsed. Additionally, you can limit the number of items a visitor can have open at the same time.
The Accordion also provides a new level of layout and design customization. You can control the spacing between items and within each item, reposition icons relative to the titles, and choose the duration of the animation effect when items are expanded or collapsed. You can also assign an HTML tag to each title for better SEO. In upcoming versions, we will continue to develop this feature and include the FAQ Schema option, among others.
To use the new widget, activate the Container and Nested Elements features by going to WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Features.
Note that activating the widget will replace the previous version of the Accordion and Toggle widgets. You will be able to edit existing Accordion and Toggle widgets.
How to Test It:
[Pro] Enhanced Styling Capabilities in the Carousel & Loop Carousel
Elementor is introducing highly requested new enhancements to the Carousel and Loop Carousel widgets. These updates empower you to build beautiful Carousels that fit your website perfectly.
Offset Slides
Spark your visitors' curiosity by giving them a sneak peek of the next slides with offset Carousel layouts. This also helps indicate to visitors that there’s additional content still to come, if they continue scrolling through the carousel. To apply the offset effect, go to Content → Settings and choose to offset either or both sides. Once set, you can adjust the offset width per viewport to make it look great from anywhere.
Customize Your Carousel’s Pagination and Navigation
Build unique Carousels tailored to your website with new styling capabilities. You can now further customize your carousels by adjusting the position and orientation of navigation and pagination elements. For example, you can reposition the pagination element and place navigation elements next to each other. You can also customize the color, background color, border, and box shadow of each navigation icon.
To use the new widget, activate the Container, Nested Elements, and Loop features by going to WordPress Dashboard → Elementor → Features.
Elementor AI - Extending Elementor AI for Images
After the initial releases of Elementor AI included the ability to create text, code, and images, we are happy to introduce two additional tools that will help you generate and edit images that fit perfectly into your website.
Remove Background
Do you have a beautiful product image with the wrong background color? Elementor AI includes a Remove Background tool that will automatically detect the object in your image and replace the background with a transparent one. This is perfect for giving product images and portraits the background color of their parent container.
Replace Background
Elementor AI empowers you to change the background of an image using a text description. For instance, you can switch your model's background from a beach to a rainforest or outer space. To use this feature, edit an image with Elementor AI → Remove background, and then enter a prompt describing your desired background, and click on the Generate button.
How to Test It:
Updated Experiments
With Elementor 3.15, the following features will be activated by default on all websites:
Optimized DOM Output: improve performance by reducing the number of wrapper elements in the HTML generated by Elementor. However, it may adversely affect websites that are still running on Elementor 3.0 or earlier. Learn More.
Improved Asset Loading: load less code by default, resulting in significantly faster page load times and better page speed scores. Learn more.
Global Style Guide: preview your global styles and make instant changes to global colors and fonts in a sleek style guide from the site's settings.
Page Transitions: customize entrance and exit animations for every page on your site, add a preloader with predefined animations and icons, or upload your own images. Learn more.
Additionally, the Landing Pages feature will be disabled by default for new sites made with this version onwards. If you'd like to activate it on your website, you can do so from Elementor → Settings → Features. All landing pages already created on your website will remain available.
