[Support request] Different headers with header-footer-elementor

[Cees]

I’m using Elementor Pro and now looking to Generatepress. IS it possible to use different headers with the header-footer-elementor plugin?

Hi there,

If I understand correctly, you can create elementor content and insert the shortcode into GP hooks:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-overview/
http://demo.generatepress.com/hook-locations/

Or else you can try Elementor Canvas which strips all of GP’s element.

Hi Leo,

What I’m trying now is (without header-footer-elementor plugin):
– create different templates in Elementor Pro
– create different headers using GP Page Headers add-on and include the shortcode
– add different page headers to different pages (page – layout – page headers), setting the page attributes template to default template.

When I load the page it shows the normal header and the ‘page header’ (see http://draft.ceescoenen.nl/dirigent/ )

When I change the page attributes templates to elementor canvas it shows only the content and no header (see http://draft.ceescoenen.nl/bezetting/ )

Hmm both pages are using Elementor Canvas from what I can tell.

I don’t understand you. I’m trying to setup different templates for headers.

If you want to use the shortcode from Elementor, then you have to insert in them into the appropriate hooks:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-overview/
http://demo.generatepress.com/hook-locations/

To do that you also need to disable Elementor Canvas has it removes all of GP’s element including hooks.
