Qreative Header Footer Designer for Elementor

Take control of your WordPress header and footer without editing theme files or setting up a complete theme builder. Qreative Header Footer Designer gives you a focused place to create header and footer templates, design them visually with Elementor, and choose exactly where they appear. Use one layout across your whole website or create different designs for specific pages, posts, and WordPress views. It works with the Elementor editor you already know, includes dedicated widgets for your logo, navigation, search overlay, and dynamic copyright notice. 🎨 Create your header or footer in three steps

1. Create a Header or Footer post.
2. Choose where it should appear.
3. Build the layout visually with Elementor.

That is all you need to replace your theme's standard header or footer with a design that fits your website. ✨ What you can do

• Design with Elementor: Use Elementor containers, widgets, responsive controls, and styling options.
• Replace theme headers and footers: Create custom layouts without modifying theme files.
• Control where templates appear: Display a template across the entire website or target the front page, blog, pages, posts, archives, search results, or the 404 page.
• Include or exclude specific content: Assign layouts to selected pages and posts or prevent them from appearing in particular places.
• Create sticky headers: Keep important navigation visible while visitors scroll.
• Manage multiple templates: Activate templates, set priorities, and quickly filter the template overview by type.
• Build multilingual layouts: Use translated templates with WPML or Polylang.

🧰 Included Elementor widgets The plugin includes the essential elements needed for a practical website header:

• Qreative: Site Logo – Display the logo configured in WordPress Site Identity.
• Qreative: Menu – Add and style an existing WordPress navigation menu, including responsive mobile navigation.
• Qreative: Search Overlay – Add a compact search trigger that opens an overlay search form.
• Qreative: Copyright – Display the current year, your site title, and optional text on either side.

🎯 Flexible display conditions Choose where every template should be used:

• Start with broad rules such as Entire Website, All Pages, or All Posts.
• Target common WordPress views such as archives, search results, and the 404 page.
• Select individual pages or posts when a layout is only needed in specific places.
• Add exclusions that always take priority over broader include rules.

This makes it easy to use a global header, create a simplified layout for landing pages, or show a different footer in selected areas of your website. 🚀 Need more than headers and footers?
