Use of Plugin:

  1. Navigate to the page or post you wish to edit and click “Edit with Elementor.”
  2. On the left side of the Elementor Editor, you will find the widgets panel, which contains PhotoGallery and VideoGallery elements (widgets) you can add to your page.
  3. Browse through these specific widgets, or use the search bar by searching Photo Gallery or Video Gallery.
  4. Click and hold the desired widget from the panel and drag it onto the page canvas where you want to place it. A blue line will indicate where the element will be inserted.
  5. Alternatively, you can click on the desired location on the canvas where you want to add the element. Then, click the element in the widgets panel. Elementor will automatically place the element at the selected location, depending on whether you are using containers or sections.
  6. Once the element is on the canvas, you can click on it to access its settings in the left panel. Here, you can customize its content, style, and advanced settings.
