Designing a landing page with Elementor but not designing other areas with it

[angus]

please don’t confuse this for the question you get all the time which is “can i use elementor.”

I am happy to keep everything the same and not redesign any of the website, i simply just want to ADD an extra page on wordpress to use as a landing page and just design that page with elementor. Is that possible and will that cause issues with hivepress or slow it down a lot even though i am not using it anywhere else other than the extra wordpress page i have added? Thanks

Hi,

Yes, it is possible, but there may be issues on the part of Elementor, such as loading its JS and CSS on other pages, and it will be slow. Also, please note that editing the entire site along with the header requires a special template. From our side, we can provide general guidance on how to create it for the default block editor if you need a blank page landing without footer and header. Additionally, we recommend using the standard Block Editor if you have the possibility.

Yep, Elementor is a pain when it comes to performance, but sometimes you have to put up with it…

If you use a plugin like “Asset Clean Up Pro”, you can load/unload plugins based on a set of rules (like url for instance).

It’s a paid plugin, but probably a requirement for you, so that you load only the elementor shenanigans on the landing page, and on no others.

Hope this helps !

thanks, what do you think about creating a subdomain and a separate wordpress website on the subdomain for the landing page and then the sign up buttons are just linked to the main hive press website which is the app itself? Seems a bit more straight forward but i feel like im missing something other than the extra hosting cost.
