About

Disclaimer: This plugin is not affiliated with, or supported by, Elementor Ltd. Quite the opposite.

Add a link to any column, section or container in Elementor, and your visitors can click anywhere inside it, not just on a button or a heading. It’s perfect for service cards, banners, call-to-action areas, team members, pricing tables and any other block that should behave like one big link.

Most “clickable column” solutions rely only on JavaScript, so there is no actual link in the page. Search engines can’t follow it, keyboard users can’t reach it, and visitors can’t open it in a new tab.

Since version 1.7, this plugin adds a real HTML link that covers the whole element:

Buttons, links and form fields inside the element keep working and go to their own destination.

Unlike Elementor’s native container link (HTML Tag → Link), you can keep buttons and other links inside the element without breaking your layout, and it also works with columns and sections.

With Elementor Pro, click the Dynamic Tags icon in the link field and choose Actions → Popup to open a popup when the element is clicked. Lightbox actions work the same way.

Turn on Track clicks and the plugin sends a column_click event every time the element is clicked, with the link_url, link_text and element_id parameters:

Nothing is sent anywhere else, and no tracking happens unless you turn it on.
