How to copy Footer from one layout to another?

Once a footer is finished you do not have to rebuild it for every layout. Save it as an Elementor template and insert it into any other Vehica layout in a few clicks.

1 minute read

A footer belongs to a layout, so copying one means saving it as an Elementor template and inserting that template into the other layout.

  1. 1 Edit the layout with your footer

    In wp-admin open Vehica Panel > Layouts & Templates and click Edit on the layout whose footer you want to copy.

    Layouts & Templates screen in wp-admin with the Page layouts list — Empty Layout, Dark Menu Layout marked Default, Transparent Layout — and arrows pointing to the Layouts & Templates menu item and to the Edit button of Dark Menu Layout
  2. 2 Save the footer as a template

    In Elementor, open the menu on the footer section's handle and choose Save as Template.

    Elementor section context menu opened from the blue section handle, with options Edit Section, Duplicate, Copy, Paste, Paste Style, Reset Style, Save as Template (highlighted), Navigator and Delete
  3. 3 Name the template and save

    Type a name for it — "My Footer" in the screenshot — and click SAVE.

    Elementor's "Save Your Section to Library" dialog with the name field filled in as "My Footer" and arrows pointing to the field and to the green SAVE button
  4. 4 Open the other layout

    Go back to Page layouts and edit the layout that should get the footer, e.g. Transparent Layout.

    The same Page layouts list with an arrow pointing to the Edit button of the Transparent Layout row
  5. 5 Add your new footer

    In that layout, add a new section and use the folder icon — Elementor's Add Template button.

    Empty Elementor section showing the pink plus button and the grey folder (Add Template) button with the "Drag widget here" hint, and arrows pointing at the folder icon and the section toolbar
  6. 6 Insert it from My Templates

    In the library window switch to the My Templates tab, find the footer you saved and click Insert.

    Elementor Library window on the My Templates tab, listing a Section named "My Footer" with Preview and Insert buttons, and arrows pointing to the tab and to Insert
  7. 7 Remove your old footer

    Delete the layout's previous footer section so only the copied one is left.
