Elementor Single Builder Settings
Once you have set the initial settings from the Elementor menu, please navigate to the M.E. Calendar menu > Single Builder.
On this page, you have the option to design your own Elementor template that will be showcased on your individual event page.
There is a category called MEC Single Builder in the Elementor sidebar, where you can add MEC widgets to the section using the Elementor drag-and-drop feature.
Now, using the new features in the Elementor, you can easily customize the colors, fonts, sizes, etc.
Note: When adding some of these widgets, you might face a message and cannot see the widget’s preview. To resolve the issue, you must ensure that the displaying event already contains that widget and that you have activated that module from MEC Settings > Single Event > Sidebar.
Assigning Single Builder template Globally
Once you have done designing the single builder template, navigate to MEC Settings > Single Event > Basic tab.
1- Single Event Style
This feature provides you with the ability to select from three distinct template options: Default View, Modern View, and Elementor Single Builder. These templates can be applied globally to the single event page and can be set from this location.
2- Default Builder for Single Event
You can create unlimited Elementor templates for your events with the Elementor Single Builder Addon. Here, you can choose the default template of the single event page from the templates that you have created before.
3- Default Builder for Modal View
Here, you can choose the default template of the single event modal from the templates that you have created before.
4- Custom Event For Set Settings
From the dropdown here, you can choose which event to show on the Elementor Single Builder Page as an example.
Assigning Single Builder template Individually
You can create several templates and set them for different Single Events, like one for the main page and the other for the Modal Popup Single Event.
After you made all these changes, clear the site cache and enjoy the new design.

FAQ
1- To start, I installed the Elementor Single Builder Addon, but the Elementor’s editor page displays an error. What should I do?
You can easily go to WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Permalink and set the permalinks of your website on the Post name. After that, the editor page will be active.
2- I get an error code 500 when editing the Elementor Single Builder Addon page.
You need to have the latest version of the add-on and check the configurations of your server. Please follow this guide. If this isn’t helpful, let us know so we can do more inspections.
3- Does the Elementor Single Builder Addon work with MEC Lite?
Yes, you can use it with MEC Lite as well.
4- I added widgets to the page, but they don’t have any content. Why?
The add-on gets the latest information from your event and edits them. Therefore, you must make sure that the last event in MEC > All Events has all the contents that the widget needs for editing.
5- I created a page with Elementor, but it is still showing the default MEC skin. Why is that?
You need to make sure that Elementor Single Builder is set in MEC Settings > Single Event > Basic > Single Event Style.
6- Certain modules are active in MEC Settings, but I cannot see them in the front end. Why is that?
This happens because the widgets in the MEC Sidebar are not active. Make sure these widgets are active.
