How to Install The Plus Addons for Elementor (and Get Your First Page Built Today)
The Plus Addons for Elementor is one of those plugins that can quietly change how fast you build WordPress sites — if you install it in the right order and turn on only what you need. Install it carelessly, enable everything at once, and you get a crowded editor and a slower site. Do it properly, and you get 120+ extra widgets, 1000+ ready templates, and builders for WooCommerce pages, headers, popups, and more, all inside the Elementor editor you already know.
This guide walks through the whole process step by step: what to check before you start, the install order, how to enable only the widgets you need, how to build your first page with it, and the common first-run mistakes to avoid.

Before you start: the prerequisites
The Plus Addons is an add-on, not a page builder on its own. It needs Elementor installed and active first. That is the single most common install mistake: people install the add-on, wonder why nothing appears, and realise Elementor was never activated.
Check these three things before you begin:
- WordPress is up to date enough to run Elementor. If your site has not been updated in a long time, update WordPress and your theme first, and take a backup before you touch anything.
- Elementor is installed and activated. The free version of Elementor is enough — Elementor Pro is NOT required to use The Plus Addons, according to the official FAQ. That surprises many buyers, and it is good news: the ৳500 one-time lifetime license (price may change — see the product page for the current price) for The Plus Addons buys you the extra widgets without forcing a Pro purchase.
- Your theme is compatible. The Plus Addons works with most modern WordPress themes. If your theme is very old or heavily customised, test on a staging copy or a spare page first.
Also confirm you have the license sorted. The The Plus Addons for Elementor listing is a lifetime license for 1 site at ৳500 (price may change — see the product page for the current price). Payment is through bKash or Nagad on WhatsApp, and the WP Theme Bazar team activates the original license directly on your site. You never receive or handle a private license key — activation is done for you.
Step 1: Install Elementor first
If Elementor is not already on your site, go to your WordPress dashboard, then Plugins, then Add New, and search for "Elementor". Install and activate it. Open any page with Elementor once, just to confirm the editor loads cleanly. If the editor does not load, fix that before adding anything else — adding a second plugin on top of a broken editor only makes the problem harder to find.
If Elementor is already installed, check that it is activated and reasonably up to date. A very old Elementor version can clash with a new add-on, so update it if an update is waiting.
Step 2: Install The Plus Addons
With Elementor working, install The Plus Addons. The plugin files are provided as part of your purchase, and activation is handled by the WP Theme Bazar team on your own site as part of the seller-assisted activation. Once it is active, you should see a new "The Plus Addons" menu item in your WordPress dashboard, and a large set of new widgets inside the Elementor editor.
Do not panic if the editor suddenly shows many more widgets than before. That is normal — the plugin adds 120+ widgets and extensions. The next step is about taming that list.
Step 3: Enable only the widgets you need
This is the step most people skip, and it is the one that matters most for performance.
The Plus Addons is built to be modular. Instead of loading every widget on every page, it lets you enable only the widgets you plan to use. It also includes an unused-widget scanner that helps you find widgets you enabled but never used, so you can switch them off.
Open the plugin settings in your dashboard and work through the widget list with your actual site in mind:
- A business site probably needs the carousel, tabs, accordion, pricing tables, countdown, and testimonial widgets — and may never need charts or data tables.
- A blog may need the post listing and blog builder widgets, and can leave the WooCommerce builders off entirely.
- A WooCommerce store needs the store builder widgets for cart, checkout, and single product pages, but may not need the mega menu builder on day one.
Enable the groups you need now. Leave the rest off. You can always turn more on later in a minute, and your site stays faster for it. This modular delivery is one of the plugin's real strengths — use it.
Step 4: Browse the template library
Before building from scratch, look at the 1000+ Elementor templates that come with the plugin. Open a page in Elementor, look for the template library, and search by the kind of page you need: hero section, pricing, team, testimonial, contact, or a full landing page.
Templates are the fastest way to learn what the widgets can do. Insert one, look at how it is built — which widgets were used, how the spacing works — and then adapt it to your content. For client work, templates are also a good starting point for a first draft you can show the same day.
A free Lite version of the plugin exists on wordpress.org with 35+ widgets. If you are comparing, the full version is where the larger library and the builders live — but the Lite version is a fair way to see the style of the widgets before you commit.
Step 5: Build your first page
Pick one simple page for your first build — a services page, a pricing page, or a landing page for one offer. Do not start with your homepage. A smaller page lets you learn the widgets without the pressure of the most-visited page on your site.
A good first build looks like this:
- Create a new page and open it with Elementor.
- Add a hero section using a Plus widget — a heading, a short line of text, and a button.
- Add a second section with three columns: a feature, a benefit, and a result, using an info-box or card widget.
- Add a pricing table or a testimonial carousel, depending on what the page is for.
- Finish with a simple call-to-action section.
Save, preview, and then view the page while logged out, or on your phone. The logged-out view is what visitors actually see, and it catches problems the editor hides — a button that is hard to tap, text that overlaps on a small screen, or a section that is taller than it needs to be.
Step 6: Try one builder
Once the basic widgets feel comfortable, try one builder — the one your site actually needs:
- WooCommerce Store Builder if you run a shop: custom cart, checkout, single product, and my-account pages, built in Elementor instead of your theme's defaults.
- Mega Menu, Header, or Mobile Menu builder if your navigation is holding you back.
- Popup, Modal, or Off Canvas builder if you need a lead form, an announcement, or a slide-in menu.
Learn one builder properly before touching the next. Each one is powerful, and each one has its own settings. Trying all of them on the first day is how people end up with a site they cannot debug.
Common first-run mistakes
Enabling every widget. The editor becomes slow to search, the site loads more code than it needs, and you cannot find the widget you actually want. Enable in small groups.
Building the homepage first. It is the hardest page and the most visible. Practise on a smaller page, then rebuild the homepage with what you learned.
Ignoring the unused-widget scanner. Run it after your first few pages. If it shows widgets you enabled but never used, switch them off.
Skipping the mobile check. Most visitors in Bangladesh browse on phones. After every build, check the page on a real phone, not just the editor's tablet preview.
Forgetting Elementor Pro is not required. You do not need to buy Elementor Pro to use The Plus Addons. If someone tells you otherwise, check the official FAQ — the free version of Elementor is enough.
What good looks like after day one
By the end of your first day, you should have Elementor running, The Plus Addons activated on your site, a small set of widgets enabled, one finished page built from a template or from scratch, and a short list of widgets you want to learn next. That is a successful install. You do not need to master all 120+ widgets in a week — nobody does. Learn the ten you use every day, and add more when a project asks for them.
The The Plus Addons for Elementor listing is a one-time ৳500 lifetime license for 1 site (price may change — see the product page for the current price). For that price, the value is in the time it saves on every page you build after the first one.
