I've been using Elementor for years and still find myself learning something new. Thanks for the heads up, this has been an eye opener!

For those who dont have Custom Positioning like me, I found an alternative.

Hi, can you tell me where this Custom Positioning setting at 0:31 has now moved to as I cannot find it? I am trying to replicate buttons next to each other, but this setting appears to have disappeared..

Love it -- I Was kicking my Ass by using Inner section with 3 columns in order to Place 3 images in a row ... You saved my time

2022 UPDATE: Width and Position (previously named Custom Positioning) can now be found under the Advanced > Layout tab.

Trying to have inline positioning for an image within text. Can't seem to get this to work? I don't see a "custom positioning" dropdown. I am using free Elementor and am using inline selections for both the text field and the image - both within the same section. No luck.

How can you get two inline elements side by side to be centered on the page? Everything justifies left.

[vikenmikaelian]

Great for buttons. How about other widgets that need it?

[scdesmond]

This no longer works, inline is no longer in Positioning and the places them on opposite sides of the column and you can't realign. Unless there is updated information?

Sorry, you don’t say a word about the blue line limits of a box - or a section for that matter. Are they never to overlap by altering the standard settings in advance tab. Does the Z factor have to be entered if two blocks or sections DO overlap? That’s the kind of thing a user needs to know. Thanks hope you can reply or give a link.

How to get the inlined elements to align right without additional CSS, though?

[simplifica.ninja-arreglamo]

Hi! I tried adding two text blocks (and more elements) but its not working at all. It keeps getting 100% width. Also if I set personalized with (lets say 25% and the other one the same) the blocks keeps one over the other instead of being inlined :| I have Elementor and Pro updated to the last version and I was waiting for this long time ago. What I'm I doing wrong? :v

[aEscoladeSites]

Love it! But this function is not Working on my Elementor! :( I tried to replicate the same steps but they only changed location but were still in the same colum. Any idea on what could be happening? Thank you

the last menu item on my Nav Menu isn't aligned horizontally with the other 5 items. it sits infuriatingly just below them. how do I fix this? yes im using element or pro and im using a HivePress theme.

[hamshank]
