Now we need loop builder support for Carousel, Slider and Woocommerce ;)

[@zivgeurts]

It's in the making ;)

Love for Elementor grows day by day with the improvements in flexibility in designing. love from Canada

[@JUANPABLOSANTAMARIA]

Is there an option to for SAME HEIGHT COLUMNS even if they have more text on them? Also, is there an option to EXPAND & CONTRACT THE LIST ("see more" buttom) in case it would be a long one?

[@selinromano1539]

Hi Juan, you can set a constant excerpt length as a word count when you use the post excerpt widget, under the content tab you will see the wrench icon, the setting is hidden there. From there you can then set a minimum height to your container that would always contain your excerpt regardless the text length. To expand & contract I suggest you to play around with the toggle widget :)

[@TheHellfireMichi]

This is the feature I needed the most, thank you for bringing it! Using always the "Post" widget made lots of websites look similar in that section, now we can have more fun with listings :)

[@sgo7806]

Great!!! But ... (Sorry!) what about Mega MENU, you announced a year a go? I Don't want to use the Crocoblock Jet Menu...

[@alwinlangmann89]

Waiting for full Woocommerce Widget-Styling capabilities. But nice update, time will show how versatile it is in comparison to for example jetengine or ACF

[@Ahmedb1]

It's surprising how the important feature like mega menu still not released by Elementor. 😮

[@000SilaS000]

You add things that are useless. Where is the meg menu? The normal menu is it still buggy?

[@sgo7806]

Yes Pleeeeeease Mega Menu! announced a year ago in an Elementor Video.

[@gireaud]

This is an awesome feature!!! But I need Elementor to be lighter, the DOM is too heavy and it affects SEO and performance.

[@vegardbell]

They are constantly working on speed.

[@patne55]

Did you activate the experiment for containers? My DOM went way down when i build with containers. Have my sites loading 500-800ms.

[@sgo7806]

I built lots of sites with Elementor and a 100 Pagespeed without the news sped features. It depends often on the way you set up the pages ....

[@ΔιονύσηςΣωτηρίου]

Thank God you started listening to your customers' requests. Thank you very much. I hope you don't stay there but especially the pro version you have to continue to upgrade because you have fallen far behind from competitors page builders. We the PRO users that pay you we should have features through elementor and not go for simple things to install 3rd party plugins (like column link, same height columns, etc). We hope to hear us!

[@James-tc3bo]

will a mega menu be added soon??

[@ahmedsaleemofficial2194]

The Elementor Loop Grid widget is a powerful tool for designing product or post layouts according to one's preferences. I have identified an issue that can be easily resolved. Furthermore, it would be highly beneficial to update the Loop Grid widget to include the ability to design layouts for product or post categories. This enhancement would be particularly useful for WooCommerce products.

[@Elementor]

Thanks for your suggestions @ahmedsaleemofficial2194

[@marilyntriunfo3691]

the Remove Kit was what I needed! a couple of months ago! ;)

🙋🏻‍♂️

[@randmotu]

Wonder if one can set it to 1 post, then use nav arrows and dots to slide or fade to next post??... This is sometimes referred to as a Post Slider. PLZ!

[@zivgeurts]

Hi Randmotu, there are dedicated pagination settings in the loop grid widget for this.

[@koibuesi]

I'm desperately trying to figure out if it's possible to create a category page with this? I've created a nice loop for my blog overview and would like to add this to my category/archive template. It shows all posts tho and in the query there is only the option to chose fixed categories, not dynamic ones. Or am I missing something?

[@sabrine7800]

did you figure this out? im trying to do this also so when users click on the category headings, the loop grid changes within that category

[@SamsonAdeyemi]

good to now finally have flex...this man is big now

[@mushtaqtechnologycom2824]

That's great elementor 👍👍 Please give us full access of elementor "post comment widget" so I can design this widget according to our needs 🙏

[@hamedbouazza8727]

it's good to describe this new option

[@bgjf2764]

Why is the post excerpt widget not working with the loop? Why do I have to add an excerpt manually? It is the best feature but I don't find this helpful here when I create a custom post using a loop widget. We need a solution for this. We can't add excerpts manually in each post.

[@antonhasle3495]

This feature I needed the most and its finally here. Thank you for that. Now there's one plugin less to use.

[@lakoresto6169]

There is no carousel for the loop builder no Woocommerce no equal height no alternative layout you are only able to select 1 post type The only thing you had to do is to copy what Jet Engine and Ele Custom Skin does. If you really worked on this over 1 year you should hire new developers

[@Elementor]

Thanks for your comments, Iako. We are adding more features to it soon 🎉

[@sofiacrespo4080]

Are you weeks, months or years away from loop builder Woocommerce support?

[@murry_monster]

omg finallyyy. This is great news.

[@fouadabuhattab]

Its a great feature but I think you can improve it by adding it as a slider and carousel widgets, not just a grid, Also you need to improve the display method in the mobile version to be a carousel with one or two columns, Also needed to be used for any custom post type, and equal height feature

[@Elementor]

Thanks for your comments, fouad. We are adding more features to it soon 🎉

[@fouadabuhattab]

​ @Elementor when I working with the loop builder notice the post excerpt widget not showing the content, there is a problem with the query

Looks great! But after enabling the expreimental features 'Loop' and 'Flexbox container' it still doesn't work. 🤷 After pressing 'Create a template' Elementor seems to think a lot, but nothing happens. No loop can be made. 👉 Is there any other action I'm missing?

Loop grid not visible on page

[@Pabloh-e6o]

Many thanks, excellent work. I wanted to ask you today how Loop Builder allows you to place products and create a carousel of these elements with Loop Grid, however it is not possible to place the Image Flipping effect (by hovering the image changes to what you have as a gallery of this product in automatic form, it is important that it is from the product gallery and not from the media library), if you could help me with how to do it in some way I would be very grateful. Your help is very valuable, very grateful

Hello, The Elementor is not working, The Post Type has not been selected in Elementor’s settings. I did everything described on the help page, I deactivated all the plugins with the exception of the Elementor, I changed the theme, now I just need to change the Elementor plugin for another plugin, which will be what I have to do if I don't have a solution.

Hey Maison, these kinds of things can be difficult to troubleshoot without screenshots. Have you joined the Elementor Community? It's a great place to ask questions like this, and get solid advice from other web creators. And you can share screenshots and links there as well: facebook.com/groups/Elementors. If you're an Elementor Pro or Cloud Website subscriber, you can also contact support directly from your account dashboard my.elementor.com

[@MeshaX]

How do I access loop builder? I have elementor pro. I don’t see it under kit library

[@Elementor]

Hi Mesha, thanks for your question. First make sure you've updated your Elementor plugins to the latest version and you've activated Flexbox containers (WordPress dashboard > Elementor > Settings > Experiments) on your website. You'll find the *loop grid* widget in the Elementor editor. You can create a loop template directly from there, or if you prefer, from the Theme Builder. See elementor.com/help/loop-grid for more information.

[@MeshaX]

@@Elementor thank you!!

[@tim-hill]

How is this different from the copy/past feature in the layers panel?

[@markcolegrove]

Right? no idea... the video doesn't really explain these new features well but the music is pretty upbeat!

[@selinromano1539]

Hi Tim, loop builder is an advanced dynamic feature, you can consider this as an advanced version of the posts widget, where you get to control the design of a single item completely.

I've never heard in the software world "It's now in Beta so it's fine to install on your live sites"!!!??? WTF? This looks like rushing to me. Competitors such as Breakdance and Bricks have all the features you're trying to deliver here but you're still behind with mega menu (read comments below) and reducing code bloat. Loop builder is basic at best and won't have better features until .... when? With you're budget and size of team/investment you need to be doing WAY better than this Elementor.

[@mmb811]

DAMIT DAMIT, and I recently bought Ele Custom Skin loop builder. What a waste of money. You guys/girls at Elementor should really see if you can send or post on your website a list of "Coming features" or "What we are working on", so we as your clients don't waste money on feature that will be build into Elementor within the next few months By the way "Well done ELEMENTOR for bringing this features... you all STARS"

I don't see the point in that loop thing

Hi Lewis, loop builder gives more customization options over the way your posts display.
