常见问题:
Can I use the plugin without Elementor?
No. PistonUI is an addon for Elementor and requires Elementor to be installed and activated.
Does the plugin work with any theme?
Yes! PistonUI works with any theme where Elementor works. The template system includes override capabilities for headers and footers across all themes.
Do I need Elementor Pro?
No, PistonUI works perfectly with Elementor Free. All widgets are fully functional without Elementor Pro.
Does it work without WooCommerce?
Yes! All core widgets (20+ widgets) work without WooCommerce. WooCommerce-specific widgets only appear when WooCommerce is installed and activated.
How do I enable or disable widgets?
Navigate to PistonUI in your WordPress admin menu and go to the Widgets tab. Each widget has an individual toggle switch. Disable widgets you don't need to keep your Elementor panel clean and optimize performance.
Can I customize the widgets?
Absolutely! Every widget includes comprehensive style controls for typography, colors, spacing, borders, backgrounds, hover effects, and more. All widgets support responsive design with device-specific options.
Will this slow down my site?
No. PistonUI is built for performance. Widgets load assets only when used, vendor libraries (Owl Carousel, Bootstrap Grid) can be toggled on/off, and the code is optimized for speed.
Can I request a new widget?
Yes! We actively develop new widgets based on community feedback. Visit our support page to submit your suggestions.
Do I need to know code to use PistonUI?
No coding knowledge is required. All widgets are drag-and-drop with intuitive Elementor controls. However, developers can extend functionality using hooks and filters.
Is PistonUI secure?
Yes. PistonUI follows WordPress security best practices including nonce verification, input sanitization, output escaping, and capability checks. The plugin is regularly audited for security compliance.
