Descripziun

Disclaimer: This plugin has no affiliation or support from Elementor Ltd., quite the opposite.

Easily make entire columns, sections and containers clickable in Elementor, not just individual elements.

How to use it

After installing the plugin, open the Elementor editor, select a Column, Section or Container, and under the Layout settings you’ll find a field to add your custom link.

Works seamlessly with internal and external links, Lightbox, and Elementor PRO popup triggers.

FAQ

How does this plugin work?

The plugin adds a custom URL field to every column, section and container in the Elementor editor. Once you add a link, the entire area becomes clickable.

It works using JavaScript, so it doesn’t create a real tag. For best SEO and accessibility, we recommend also adding regular links to inner elements — ensuring both columns and default elements work perfectly.

What if I find a bug?

If you run into any issues, please open a support request here on the plugin page — we’re happy to help.

Apart from not being updated, this plugin stores the code in NON-STANDARD areas in the DB. Result – screwed up websites that will not restore properly! THIS IS A DREADFUL PIECE OF CODING, WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT USE THIS!!!!!!
