ANIMATION ADDONS

Free

Tip: Install and activate Animation Addons first. That is all you need.

Note: In the screenshots, the orange boxes and numbers show you exactly where to click.

STEP 1

Turn On the Widget

Good news: the Toggle Switcher is already on. If you ever need to turn it on again, it only takes a moment.

  1. In your WordPress Dashboard, go to Animation Addon > Widgets.
  2. Open the Elementor V4 (Atomic) tab.
  3. Find Toggle Switcher under General Widgets and switch it on.
  4. Click Save Settings.

STEP 2

Add It to Your Page

Open a page in the Elementor Editor and drop the Toggle Switcher in.

  1. Click the + button at the top left to open the Elements panel.
  2. Look under AAE General for Toggle Switcher.
  3. Drag it onto your page.

Tip: Can not see it? Type Toggle Switcher in the search box at the top of the panel.

Note: A new Toggle Switcher already works. It has two tabs, Monthly and Yearly, and two short texts under them.

STEP 3

Write Your Content

The widget has three parts: the Tabs at the top, and one Pane for each tab. A pane holds the title and the text that show when its tab is chosen.

  1. Open the Structure panel. It is the little layers icon at the top right.
  2. Open the Toggle Switcher. You will see Tabs, Pane β€” Monthly and Pane β€” Yearly.
  3. Click a Tab to change its word, for example Monthly to Basic.
  4. Open a pane. Click its Title or Description and type your own words.

Tip: The first tab starts as the open one, so visitors see the first pane when the page loads.

STEP 4

Pick a Look

You can start with the plain tabs, or give it a new look with one click.

  1. Select the Toggle Switcher. In the General tab, open Presets.
  2. Click Apply a preset.
  3. Choose toggle-switcher-sliding-pill or toggle-switcher-style-switch.

Tip: Click Reset to Default to go back to the plain tabs.

Plain tabs

The default. Two text tabs with a line under them. The open tab has a dark pill behind it.

toggle-switcher-sliding-pill

Two words inside a soft grey pill. A yellow pill shows which one is open.

toggle-switcher-style-switch

Two words with a small on and off switch between them.

STEP 5

Style It

Every part has its own Style tab, so you can match your brand.

  1. Click a part in the Structure panel, for example a Tab or a Title.
  2. Open the Style tab.
  3. Change the color, font, size or spacing.
  4. Click Update to save your page.

The yellow pill slides to Yearly.

Switch

The switch turns on, and Yearly becomes bold.

GOOD TO KNOW

More Details

Two choices

The widget has two choices. For more, use the Accordion or another tab style.

Great for pricing

Put a plan name and a price in each pane, and let visitors choose Monthly or Yearly.

Your theme colors

If your Elementor site sets a default size or color for paragraphs, it also shows in the panes. You can fix it in the pane Style tab.

HELP

Troubleshooting

I do not see the Toggle Switcher in the Elements panel

Go to Animation Addon > Widgets > Elementor V4 (Atomic) and turn on Toggle Switcher. Click Save Settings, then reload the editor. Look under AAE General, or use the search box.

The tabs do not switch in the editor

Switching works on your live page. Open the page to try it.

My text looks very big

Open the Structure panel, click the Title or the Description, then use the Style tab to set the size and color. Your site may have a large default size for paragraphs.

I want different words on the tabs

Open the Structure panel, click a Tab and type the new word.

I want to go back to the first look

Select the Toggle Switcher, open Presets and click Reset to Default.
