How to Install Elementor Template Kits With the Envato Elements Plugin in WordPress for Envato Elements Subscribers
A Template Kit is a collection of pre-designed templates for Elementor that share a cohesive visual style. Remember It is not a WordPress theme, you can’t install it like a WordPress theme usually. Template Kits will have “Elementor Template Kit” in the item title. Template kits require the Elementor Page Builder plugin and an Elementor-friendly theme such as Hello Elementor to be installed and activated before being imported.
You can purchase Elementor Template Kits from ThemeForest or, if you’re an Envato Elements subscriber, you’ll have unlimited access to hundreds of Premium Template Kits by connecting your Elements subscription to the Envato Elements plugin.
You can use the Envato Elements WordPress plugin to easily import both Template Kits and Stock Photos.
How do I Download the Template Kit?
On Themeforest, you can buy our template kits, and for installation, you can use the plugin “Template Kit – Import” by Envato in WordPress. For less experienced users, you can buy the Envato Elements WordPress extension to import our templates.
After you’ve purchased one of our Template kits in Themeforest. Download your template kit from your “Themeforest” profile and ensure it remains zipped. (If you use the Safari browser, you must ensure “Open Safe Files after Downloading” is disabled in Preferences)
