About this product
Advanced Category Listing for Elementor 1.0.4 is an Elementor widget that shows your categories as a grid or a slider, with an optional image, short description and post count on each one. It's for sites that want a visual entry point into their content: a shop listing WooCommerce product categories on the home page, a travel blog showing its destinations, or an agency site with project categories. You build and style the listing in the Elementor editor, using the widget's own settings.
What's in the Advanced Category Listing for Elementor download
Our download is the original Advanced Category Listing for Elementor ZIP for version 1.0.4, with the license key already activated. It holds the plugin that adds the widget. Elementor itself is not in the file; you install it from the WordPress plugin screen. Releases the developer made after this version are WordPress and Elementor compatibility checks plus one typography fix, with no new widget options.
Good to know
You need Elementor installed and active; if it's missing, the plugin asks you to install it first. The developer lists it as compatible with WordPress 6.0 and higher, and this version was checked against WordPress 6.7.1. The widget works with Elementor only, not with the block editor or other builders. For a custom taxonomy, register it as hierarchical, or the category image field won't appear. The download is a package: unzip it on your computer first and upload advanced-category-listing-for-elementor.zip, not the whole package.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the original file?
Yes. Every product on GPLGuide is the developer’s own release, unchanged. The license key comes already activated. If a product does ask for a key, the activation steps appear on its page once you have it.
Is it legal to use a GPL plugin or theme from GPLGuide?
Yes. WordPress plugins and themes are released under the GPL, which lets anyone use, share and change the code. The developer’s support desk and the developer’s own update service are not part of the file; those stay with the developer.
How do I install it?
Log in, open the product page and click Download under Your downloads. For a plugin go to Plugins, Add New Plugin, Upload Plugin, choose the ZIP, then Install Now and Activate. For a theme go to Appearance, Themes, Add New Theme, Upload Theme.
How do updates work?
When a newer version is listed on GPLGuide, download it from the product page and upload it over the installed copy; WordPress offers to replace the old version. Updates are manual.
Can I use it on more than one site?
Yes. The GPL lets you use it on as many of your own sites as you like.
What if the file does not work or a newer version is out?
Tell us on the Request Item page or through Support. We check the file and add the newer version when we have it.
