📄 What It Is

A straightforward yet powerful widget for adding headings (text titles) to your design—no coding required. It helps establish visual hierarchy and enhances readability and emphasis.


➕ Adding It to Your Page

  1. In the Elementor editor, open the widget panel.

  2. Drag and drop the Heading widget into your section or column.

  3. Click the widget to edit its content and style.


✍️ Content Settings

  • Title: Enter your heading text directly.

  • Link (optional): Make the heading clickable by adding a URL and choosing whether it opens in the same tab or a new one.

  • HTML Tag: Select heading level (H1–H6) or choose options like Div, Span, or Paragraph for semantic structure without styling changes.

  • Alignment: Set the heading alignment—left, center, right, justified, or adjust its alignment within the parent container.


🎨 Style Customization

Controls are located in the Style tab and include:

  • Typography: Choose font family, size, weight, casing, style, decoration, line height, and letter spacing.

  • Text Color: Pick custom or global colors to match your design palette.

  • Text Stroke: Add an outline effect to the heading text.

  • Text Shadow: Apply shadow effects (color, offset, blur) to create depth.

  • Blend Mode: Apply blending effects for creative text overlays against background imagery.

  • Layout Positioning: Adjust horizontal and vertical self-alignment within the container.


🛠️ Advanced Options

Within the Advanced tab (not detailed on this page), you can further fine-tune spacing, z-index, motion effects, custom positioning, and additional styling.


🎯 Ideal Use Cases

  • Hero section titles and main page headlines.

  • Blog post headings and subheadings for enhanced structure.

  • Calls-to-Action (CTAs) where clickable headings prompt engagement.

  • Testimonial or section labels that need visual emphasis.


📝 Best Practices

  • Use H1–H6 tags to establish proper content hierarchy and SEO structure.

  • Choose appropriate heading sizes and weights for visual impact.

  • Use text strokes, shadows, or blend modes sparingly to accent without overwhelming.

  • Align headings responsively for clarity across device sizes.
