Course Description

Learn WordPress Elementor and unleash a powerful & free page builder for WordPress with this Elementor course.  With Elementor, you can drag and drop your way to a powerful website design.  Elementor works a little differently from most page builders.  For a start, you design live on the front-end of your site, not in the back-end Dashboard.

The free version of Elementor is a page-builder that comes with dozens of beautiful widgets and templates that you can use to build your web page content with pixel perfect precision.  It's an impressive and well-established page-builder.  But you can squeeze even more out of the free version of Elementor. I'll show you how to create and edit headers and footers for your site in the same way that Pro Elementor users do - using the Elementor editor itself.

The Pro version of Elementor will blow you away!  If you have ever been frustrated trying to make your WordPress theme look like the demo you saw on the theme's homepage, you are not alone.   Most themes require extra plugins and an in-depth knowledge of the support documentation to make it look anything like the one that drew you to it in the first place.  With Elementor Pro, you don't need to ever feel that frustration again.  Elementor Pro gives you the same drag and drop page builder, but also allows you to create your own WordPress theme, designed exactly as you want it.

This Elementor course covers both the free and paid versions of Elementor. 

After a discussion of why you should learn Elementor, you'll install the plugin and a theme.  We'll then cover:


  • How to borrow inspiration from other websites, to craft your own unique design.  That includes choosing the right fonts and colours for your site.

  • We'll look at the box model and you'll learn how padding and margin can affect placement of elements on the page. 

  • We'll take a look at Hex colour codes.

  • We'll go through all of Elementor's back-end settings, including how to install custom fonts and icons (for Pro users).

  • You'll become familiar with the front-end Elementor interface as we go through all of the menu and settings.

  • You'll get to know how an Elementor page is structured using sections, columns and elements.  At this stage, I'll set you a few design tasks and then go over the solutions in detail.

  • You'll learn how to use templates so that you can create a design element once, and re-use it as many times as you want.  You can even export your templates from one site and import them into another.

  • You'll see why Elementor's global widgets are a powerful asset in your toolbox.

  • For Pro users, we'll look at building an entire theme with Elementor, based on the inspiration we got earlier in the course.  We'll see how different templates can be created and used in different areas of the site design.  We'll create templates for the site header, footer, blog page, 404 page, single post template & archive page template.  Will design the homepage.  We'll design a landing page.  We'll even design a popup and set the trigger conditions to define when it shows on your site.

  • Elementor offers you some great tools, including motion effects.  These can be used to bring movement to your pages, so we'll look at those.

  • How (and why) we can use and integrate advanced custom fields and custom post types into our site design.

  • And finally, we'll look at mobile optimization.  This powerful set of tools will allow you to check (and fix) your site design so that it looks great on a desktop, tablet AND mobile phone.


    Elementor was created for every site owner that wants to create beautiful web content.  It was created to allow you to design the site YOU want.  This course teaches you how to use it!

The course is very helpful and well-organized. One suggestion that could make it even better is adding a real-world project alongside the homework assignments, as it would provide more practical experience and help apply the concepts in a realistic way Thank you for the effort and support throughout the course.

By Justin Bibler on 4/28/2026

The content is great. The instructor can give you motion sickness if you follow the cursor around. He clearly knows Elementor very well; and I'm grateful for that. But, a bit of measured control, less "hip pocket" training would be a nice addition. Perhaps a bit of a nit pick, but I think a person who isn't technical already might feel a bit lost by the "visual noise" of the decision making process.

I wish Andrew wouldn't hop between the Elementor Free and Pro

By Peter Szalay on 6/29/2025

This is a great course - Thankyou Andrew for all the work you've clearly put into it - and thankyou for being willing to share your knowledge and experience. I started this course knowing a bit about Elementor. Now, I know a lot more to the point where I have a level of confidence that I can use Elementor to achieve the results I want in one of my projects. To anyone thinking of taking Andrew's course here - just do it - you won't regret it.

By Bob Smith on 4/7/2025

Great course for me with little knowledge of WoodPress and Elementor. Took the basic Williams course and then took this one. I think I am one of the first through the revision 3/2025 version. I like everything about the course. I am sure will be back using as a reference in months ahead.

By Anne Hargreaves on 3/14/2025

I am very happy to recommend this course highly. The design may at first seem rather plain and not as flashy as some others, but don't let that put you off. The course is well-structured, thorough and explains the whole process clearly. It then allows you to launch into designing your own Elementor site with confidence, knowing you can come back to it to check up on details you may have forgotten. I also appreciate that Andrew works to keep the course as up to date as possible.

By Oleg Osovitskiy on 5/17/2024

Every time I take any Andrew Williams' course, I’m always surprised. You start a course as a blank sheet and at the end of one, you know a lot and are confident in yourself. Only a real teacher can so systemically build and present the material to others. This course is complete and relevant. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know Elementor.

By Grahame Martin on 10/4/2020

Thanks, Andy, for a brilliant course on Elementor, really enjoyed it and I am putting all this learning in to practice pronto. Just a thought, I wonder if you might have ever toyed with the idea of doing a course on a local development tool, Local by Flywheel for example, and teaching us how to develop locally and deploy. I think there might be quite a few people interested in a course like that. Its such a handy tool to have a good grip of. In any case, all the best and I think your going to need your umbrella for a while now. Best, Grahame

Hi Thanks I did use WP in the past but that was before Elementor …for some time I used Click Funnels Funnel page builder but I do not have the money at this moment to continue. it so a friend of mine introduced me to Elementor it looks as if I can use it the same way as Click funnels. I think I am starting to Love Elementor so many things you can do , What I love is I can always come back , Monkey see monkey do I love it THX

By Joseph Nderitu on 1/18/2020

At the beginning, I was skeptical of the course quality and high rating. But as I progressed through course, I really began to appreciate the breadth of coverage. I learnt much and I feel more confident working with Elementor. I am impressed with the course and I am sure you will be too. I highly recommend it for those who want to grow in proficiency in using Elementor
