Envato Elements to Elementor – One-Click Export using UiChemy Plugin
Importing Random Figma Design from Envato Elements:
We purchased a random template from Envato Elements and made modifications in Figma. The initial design used absolute frames, which we converted into Auto-layout. Additionally, we replaced placeholders with images.
Step 1: Figma Optimisation for UiChemy
1. Hero Section – Converting to Auto-Layout & Setting the Rectangle/image to Container’s background Image.
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Apply Auto-layout to the “Homepage” (main frame) and set the width to “Fixed.”
2. Apply Auto-layout to the “Hero-Section” (container), set the width to “Fill” and height to “Fixed” (850px), and remove any gaps.
3. Set the background image directly on the “Hero-Section” frame.
4. Apply Auto-layout to the “Navbar” and “btn-next prev” frames, set gaps to “Auto,” and remove absolute positioning.
5. Position the “Navbar” above the “btn-next prev” frame.
6. Move the “Heading” frame into the “btn-next prev” frame and adjust padding as needed.
7. Lock the “menu” icon frame.

2. Combining Multiple Layers and exporting as image as with Absolute Position & Setting their Z-Index value
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Set Auto-Layout for “Customer Reviews” Frame: Repeat the steps mentioned in the “Hero Section – Converting to Auto-Layout” for the “Customer Reviews” Frame and its inner frames.
2. Handling the “Pattern” Frame: Click on the “pattern” Frame, which is initially in Absolute Position.
The “Pattern” Frame contains multiple vectors that will be converted into multiple images upon export.
3. Locking the “Pattern” Frame: Lock the “Pattern” Frame to ensure it is exported as a single image.
4. Adjusting Layer Order: Since the “Pattern” Frame might be above other frames, click on “send to back” to ensure it won’t show above the sections after exporting.
5. Handling “Pattern” Frame in the Footer: Navigate to the “footer” Frame, where you might encounter another “Pattern” Frame.
Repeat the above-mentioned steps for the “Pattern” Frame in the footer.
6. Completion: After setting all frames in Auto-Layouts and handling the “Pattern” Frames, your design is ready for export.
Export the Figma Design using the UiChemy plugin, and the “Pattern” Frames will be converted into single images.
By following these steps, you can efficiently use the UiChemy plugin to export your Figma Design in WordPress, ensuring proper handling of Auto-Layouts and “Pattern” Frames. Adjust the steps according to your specific Figma design and WordPress requirements.
