Template Library adds an Animation Addons button to the Elementor editor's "add section" area. Filter blocks and pages by category or light and dark style, preview one, and insert it exactly where you were building. The extension is free; most designs unlock with Animation Addons Pro.
The short answer
Template Library is an Animation Addons for Elementor extension that adds an Elementor 4 template library to the editor: a modal of ready-made blocks and full pages from Animation Addons. You filter by category, light or dark style, or search by name, preview a design full size, and insert it at the drop area where you opened the library.

Demo variations
Ideas you can build today with Template Library, free in Animation Addons, on Elementor 4's own elements. The settings on each card are a good place to start.
A Northwind Studio homepage: hero, services, selected work, testimonials and a contact strip, each inserted from the Block tab and restyled in the studio's colours.
A moody, near-black Harbor & Pine project page with a full-bleed hero, a gallery and an awards row.
A clean Paywise pricing page: three-tier pricing block, a features/benefits grid and an FAQ section, all light.
A friendly Lumen Dental "Meet the team" page with team cards, a "Why choose us" row and a contact section with opening hours.
A complete Bakehouse & Co. about page: story, values, team and a newsletter strip, inserted in one go and then edited.
Features
Every point below is a real control in the Template Library screen or part of how it works. Nothing here needs custom code.
Change the words, images and colours of a finished layout instead of building every section by hand.
The Category filter covers the sections sites actually need: Hero, About, Services, Work, Portfolio, Team, Testimonials, Pricing, FAQ, Contact, Header, Footer and more. Search narrows by name.
The colour filter (All, Light, Dark) shows only sections in your site's style.
The template lands at the drop area you opened the library from, not at the bottom of the page.
Templates come in through Elementor's own import as normal elements with no link back to the library.
Step by step
Six steps from switching it on to publishing. The bold names are the exact labels you will see on screen.
Download freeIn WordPress, go to Animation Addon › Settings › Extensions (the Atomic Extensions screen) and switch on Template Library (it is off by default).
Edit a page in Elementor and find the Animation Addons button in the "add section" drop area on the canvas.
Click it to open the library, then choose the Block tab for single sections or Page for complete layouts.
Narrow the list with Category, the Light / Dark filter or Search.
Click a thumbnail to preview it full size; use Back to Library to compare others.
Click Insert. The design is added at that drop area, ready to edit.
Honest comparison
Animation Addons offers two ways to start from a design. Starter Templates, in the Animation Addons dashboard, import a whole demo site with its design system. Template Library works inside the editor, one block or page at a time, on a site you are already building.
| Need | Build from scratch | Starter Templates (dashboard) | Template Library (editor) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Where you use it | Elementor editor | Animation Addon dashboard | Elementor editor modal |
| What you add | One element at a time | A full demo site, including Elementor 4 global classes and variables | One block or one page |
| Keeps your existing pages and styles | Yes | Adds alongside them | Yes, inserts into the current page only |
| Filter by section type and light/dark | n/a | n/a | Category, Light / Dark, Search |
Compared with Elementor 4.3.3 (September 2026). Elementor's own Template Library of page layouts and blocks stays available; Animation Addons Template Library sits beside it as a separate button, adds the Light/Dark filter and drop-area insertion, and offers designs made for Animation Addons widgets.

FAQ
Yes. Elementor has its own Template Library of page layouts and blocks, and Animation Addons adds a second one beside it. The free Animation Addons Template Library extension puts a button in the editor's "add section" area that opens ready-made blocks and pages, filterable by category, light or dark style and search, with a full-size preview and one-click insert.
The Template Library extension is free. Inside it, templates marked free insert for everyone, while most templates need an active Animation Addons Pro licence. Locked templates show Go Premium if Pro is not installed, Activate if it is installed but inactive, or Activate License if the licence is not yet active.
Animation Addons Template Library is off by default. Go to Animation Addon › Settings › Extensions, open the Atomic Extensions screen and switch on Template Library, then reload the Elementor editor. The button appears in the "add section" drop area on the canvas. It also needs an internet connection, because templates load from the Animation Addons template server.
In the Animation Addons Template Library, at the time of writing, most Block templates are built with Elementor 4 atomic elements, while the Page templates use classic (V3) widgets. Elementor 4 lets classic widgets and atomic elements sit on the same page, so both insert and edit normally. Use Starter Templates when you want a complete Elementor 4 site with its design system.
Animation Addons Template Library inserts the design at the drop area where you opened it. Click the button in the gap between two sections and the new block lands right there, so you can add a testimonials row under an existing hero with no dragging afterwards.
Yes. Animation Addons Template Library inserts designs through Elementor's own import, so every heading, image, button and container becomes a normal element on your page. Change text, swap images or apply your classes and variables. The design keeps no link to the library, so later edits are never overwritten.
A design inserted from the Animation Addons Template Library is ordinary page content, so it performs like anything you built by hand. The Template Library modal loads only in the Elementor editor, never for visitors. For speed, replace demo images with your own optimised images and remove sections you don't use.
