    I loved this plugin. However, it recently stopped working and they have not updated it in months. Now elementor offers their own loop functionality so I will switch to that.

    We need the people behind this plugin to really become active in the community. Been a while since an update happened. It’s an amazing plugin but can we trust using it on the long-term?

    This concept is genius, and should be part of the default Elementor page builder. THANK YOU for developing this.

Recent releases and news for this plugin

  1. Version 4.3.6 Fixed: WordPress Menu — dropdown panels going off screen on mobile and horizontal scroll breaking after 4.3.5. The layout class fix now uses client-side JavaScript instead of PHP so the correct class is applied per viewp 4.3.6
  2. Version 4.3.5 Fixed: WordPress Menu — pointer animations (underline, frame, background) and dropdown behaviour are now restored when the Mobile Menu module is active. Previously, the module’s responsive layout control replaced the nat 4.3.5
  3. Version 4.3.4 Fixed: WordPress Menu — Stretch alignment (Justify) no longer loses equal item widths when the Mobile Menu module is active. Navigation items now grow to fill the full header width again, matching the original Elementor 4.3.4
  4. Version 4.3.3 Added: Dark Mode Logo option in Default Colours (Site Settings). Upload a separate logo image for dark mode; it swaps automatically when dark mode is active and restores when switching back to light. Fixed: Legacy module 4.3.3
  5. Version 4.3.2 Fixed: Container Layout module no longer forces all Elementor containers to render unconditionally. The should_render filter is now conditional, so third-party plugins such as Essential Addons conditional display work co 4.3.2
  6. Version 4.3.1 Improved: Custom admin menu icon for ECS in the WordPress sidebar. Tested: Verified compatible with WordPress 7.0. 4.3.1
