Overview
WPRentals supports creating pages with Elementor Free and the WPRentals Elementor Widgets plugin.
The WPRentals Elementor Widgets plugin adds WPRentals-specific widgets inside Elementor, so you can use theme design elements, listing widgets, search widgets, and WPRentals shortcodes while editing a page visually.
You can also import ready-made WPRentals Elementor templates directly into your Elementor pages.
