How to Create a Split Section Layout in Elementor

Step 1: Create a New Page or Template

  1. Add a New Page or Template:

    • Go to Pages > Add New or Templates > Add New in your WordPress dashboard.

    • Name your page or template and click Edit with Elementor.

  2. Add a New Section:

    • In the Elementor editor, click the + icon to add a new section.

    • Select the 2-Column Layout (or any layout that suits your split section needs).

Step 2: Customize the Split Section Layout

1. Set Column Widths:

  • Hover over the section and click the Column icon.

  • Adjust the column width by dragging the divider or setting percentages (e.g., 50% – 50%, 60% – 40%).

2. Add Content to Each Column:

  • Drag and drop widgets (e.g., Text Editor, Image, Buttons, Video, etc.) into each column.

  • Customize the content as needed.

3. Apply ElementsKit Widgets:

  • ElementsKit provides advanced widgets and modules that can enhance your split section. For example:

    • Use the Advanced Heading widget for stylized headings.

    • Use the Image Box widget for combining images and text.

    • Use the Accordion or Tabs widget for collapsible or interactive sections.

Step 4: Style the Split Section

1. Set Backgrounds for Columns:

  • Click on a column, go to the Style tab, and set a background color, gradient, or image.

  • Repeat for the second column to create contrast or complement the design.

2. Adjust Padding and Margins:

  • Use the Advanced tab to adjust spacing between elements, ensuring a clean and balanced layout.

3. Add Borders or Dividers:

  • Use the Border options under the Style tab to create a line or shadow effect between the columns.

4. Make It Responsive:

  • Click the Responsive Mode button at the top of the Elementor editor.

  • Check and adjust the layout for tablet and mobile views to ensure it looks great on all devices.

Step 5: Save and Publish
