Calio Addon for Elementor - Widgets, Slider & Extensions

Calio Addon extends Elementor with a growing collection of creative widgets, practical site-building extensions, and optional WooCommerce admin tools. It is built for designers, freelancers, agencies, and store owners who want more layout options inside Elementor and quicker store checks inside WordPress without loading every feature on every page. The plugin includes content widgets, post widgets, team widgets, navigation widgets, pricing widgets, data/table widgets, gallery widgets, chart widgets, an image comparison widget, and a WooCommerce product slider. It also includes optional WordPress Dashboard tools for WooCommerce inventory, order revenue monitoring, customer geography insights, traffic attribution summaries, and inline product management. Each module is designed to work inside the familiar WordPress or Elementor workflow, with controls for typography, colors, spacing, borders, icons, responsive behavior, data visibility, and layout details where the module needs them.

Built for control and maintainability The Calio admin dashboard lets you enable or disable widgets, extensions, and dashboard tools individually, search modules by name or category, and review basic requirement checks for WordPress, PHP, Elementor, and WooCommerce-dependent modules. This keeps the editing and admin experience focused and helps avoid loading features you do not plan to use. Third-party libraries:

• Chart.js (MIT): https://www.chartjs.org/
• Swiper (MIT): bundled by Elementor and used through Elementor's registered script/style handles.

Source code and build tools: The deployed JavaScript and CSS assets are generated from the readable source files included in assets/src. Development tooling is based on @wordpress/scripts. The plugin does not load non-service JavaScript or CSS from third-party CDNs. External services: Calio Addon can connect to external services only when an administrator configures and initiates the related feature.

• Google Calendar API (optional): Used by the API settings screen to connect a Google Calendar account through OAuth and cache calendar metadata for calendar-related widgets. When the administrator starts the connection, authorization codes and tokens are exchanged with Google over HTTPS, and calendar list/user profile data may be requested from Google APIs. Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Public Google Sheets CSV (optional): The Table widget can fetch a public Google Sheet CSV URL entered by the site editor. The requested sheet URL is sent to Google only when that data source is selected.
• Freemius SDK (optional opt-in): Used for account, support, update, licensing, and upgrade flows. The SDK is WordPress.org compliant and asks for user consent before collecting usage/account data. Terms: https://freemius.com/terms/ Privacy: https://freemius.com/privacy/
