Features

Key features of Icon Box

What the widget gives you, each tied to a setting in the Elementor panel.

Six Icon Box styles

Pick a layout in Icon Box Style: Default, One, Two, Three, Four or Five. Style Four puts the title above the icon.

Hover fill from any side

Style Five grows a colour from a small tab on one edge. Choose Hover Start From and the Transition time for an Elementor icon box hover effect.

Wipe and arrow

Style Three wipes a new background across the box and slides in an arrow. Set the colours in the Hover section.

Icon tilt on hover

Style Two turns the icon 40 degrees and adds a soft shadow. Switch it with Enable Icon Hover Effect.

Any icon or SVG

Icon takes the Elementor icon library or an uploaded SVG, so an Elementor icon box SVG works like any other icon. Set Size, Icon Color, Icon BG Color, padding and radius.

Button or whole-box link

Link Type adds a button, makes the whole box one link with Wrapper, or turns links off.

Animation Addons buttons

The Button section has seven styles, hover styles such as Cross and Rollover, and an icon before or after the text.

Box, text and hover styling

Style the Box (colour or gradient, border, radius, shadow, padding, Alignment), the title and description in Content, and on styles Three and Five the hover colours of the box, icon, title, description and button. Together they turn the widget into any Elementor feature box, service box or info box you need.

FAQ

Questions about Icon Box

How do I add an icon box in Elementor?

Add the Icon Box widget, choose an icon, and write a title and a description. Then pick an Icon Box Style and a Link Type and style it in the Style tab. No code is needed.

Is there a free Elementor icon box widget?

Yes. Icon Box is part of the free Animation Addons plugin on WordPress.org and works with Elementor Free and Elementor Pro.

What do the six Icon Box Styles do?

Default is a plain icon with text. One is a dark blue, centred card. Two tilts the icon on hover, Three wipes a new background across the box, Four puts the title above the icon, and Five fills the box from one edge.

How do I make an Elementor icon box with button?

Set Link Type to Button, then open the Button section to set the text, link, style and icon. Choose Wrapper instead if you want the whole box to be the link.

How do I set an Elementor icon box link?

Set Link Type to Wrapper and add a Link, and the whole box becomes one link. Choose Button to link only the button, or None for no link.

How do I make an Elementor icon box hover effect?

Use style Five for a fill that grows from the top, right, bottom or left, or style Three for a wipe with an arrow. The Hover section sets the colours of the box, icon, title, description and button.

Why is my Elementor icon box not working?

Check the Icon Box Style first. The Hover section in the Style tab only appears for styles Three and Five, and Enable Icon Hover Effect only for style Two. Other styles have no hover effect.

How do I use an Elementor icon box SVG icon?

In Icon, choose Upload SVG and pick your file, or choose a library icon. You can then set its size, colour, background, padding, border and radius.

Elementor icon box vs image box: which to use?

Use Icon Box when a small icon carries the point, as in a feature list. Use the Image Box widget when a photo should lead, as in a portfolio or a team grid.

How is it different from Elementor's Icon Box?

Elementor's widget can place the icon beside the text and has Stacked and Framed icons. This one adds six styles, hover fills, an icon tilt, a button and a whole-box link.
