On this page
In short
- Logo, contact details and social links are set once, in the panel.
- Build the header and footer in Elementor, like any design.
- Set the palette and fonts once, and every WordPress page follows.
- IDX styling comes from Elementor too, sent over with one click.
Where each setting lives
- The panel, the logo and the contact details.
- The layout, your header and footer, built in Elementor.
- Elementor's site settings, the color palette and the typography for every WordPress page.
- Global Styles in your IDX Plugin dashboard, where what you send lands and styles the IDX side.
The logo and the details
Open MyHome IDX in the WordPress menu and you land on General. The regular logo and a reversed version for dark backgrounds, which falls back to the regular one when empty. Below them, the public email, phone and address the theme prints in the footer and in contact sections, and the social profiles, where an empty field hides that icon.
Header and footer
Your header and footer are a design, called a layout, edited in Elementor from MyHome IDX then Header & Footer. See Header and Footer Layouts in MyHome IDX, including the layout your IDX Broker pages render inside.
Colors and fonts
The color palette and the fonts are set once in Elementor's site settings and every WordPress page follows. See Global Settings and the Sync.
Editing pages in Elementor
Your WordPress pages are Elementor pages. Open one, drag sections and elements where you want them, and see the result as you edit. The imported demo arrives with ready sections, so most of the work is rearranging and rewording. The free version of Elementor covers all of it.
The IDX elements
Search forms, listing cards and the IDX pages are not styled by the theme. Their look starts in Elementor's site settings and reaches them when you sync it to Global Styles in your IDX Plugin dashboard. A single widget can still get its own treatment on its Appearance tab, see Adjust Search Form Fields and Appearance.
