Table of Contents

Are you using sliders in your Figma design to showcase some images? Then you can tag those elements as an Elementor Slides widget directly from your Figma design using the UiChemy plugin.

So when you export the design as an Elementor template, that particular section will use the Elementor Slides widget.

What Can be Tagged?

A frame containing a nested frame with a background image or color, with a nested frame inside with a title text and a description text, and a button text inside a frame, can be tagged as a Slides widget.

You tag multiple nested frames together.

How to Tag?

Select the top level frame of your layout, then select the Optimize & Convert option and click the Optimize & Convert button.

Now select the frame or container containing the slider in your design and click on the Widget Tags tab in the UiChemy panel.

Then search for slide and click on the Slides widget from Elementor Pro.

To do this, you can choose between two options: Step by Step Method or Express Conversion.

Here, we’ll go with the Step by Step Method.

  1. First, select the Step by Step Method and click on the Start button.
  2. Select the top-level page or frame of your layout, then click on the Next button.
  3. Under the Widget Tagging Mode tab, select the Manual Widget Tagging Option.
  4. Next, under the Manage Auto Layout tab, you’ll see two options: It’s already in Auto Layout and Convert to Auto Layout. We’ll go with the first option.
  5. After that, under the Tag Widgets tab, choose the frame or container that contains your element (Widget). Then, search for the Slides widget from Elementor Pro in the UiChemy panel and select it. Here, you’ll see all the supported Elementor widgets.

Note: You need to have a UiChemy Pro license to tag Elementor Pro widgets.

On the next screen, you’ll get the information of which element you are tagging as what widget.

Then you’ll see widget specific tagging options.

  1. In the Slide 1 dropdown, you have to select the first nested frame of the slide item.
  2. Then, in the Heading dropdown, you have to select the slider heading text.
  3. Select the description text from the Description dropdown.
  4. Then, from the Button dropdown, you have to select the frame with the button.
  5. In the Button Text field, the button text will be auto-selected.
  6. Then click on the + Add New button and repeat steps 1 to 5 to tag the next slide items.
  7. Once done, click the Save button to complete the tagging, and you’ll see a Tagged successfully message.

Now, if you export the design, that element will use the Elementor Slides widget with your selected image and text.

Note: Since this is a pro widget make sure the Elementor pro plugin is installed and activated. You might have to make some minor adjustments in the widget settings to match the design, especially those elements that are not tagged.

Related Frequently Asked Questions


What if I can't find the Slides widget in the UiChemy panel?

If the Slides widget isn't showing up, ensure you have a UiChemy Pro license, as it's required to tag Elementor Pro widgets. Additionally, confirm that the Elementor Pro plugin is installed and activated, as the Slides widget is part of that package. Without these, the widget won't be available for tagging.

What is the best practice for tagging slides in Figma for Elementor?

A best practice is to ensure that your Figma layout is well-structured before tagging. Select the top-level frame of your layout and use the Manual Widget Tagging Option to maintain control over each element. This method helps ensure that each slide's title, description, and button are correctly linked, which is crucial for a smooth export to Elementor.

Can I use the Express Conversion method for tagging slides?

While you can use the Express Conversion method, the tutorial specifically recommends the Step by Step Method for tagging slides. This method provides more control over the tagging process, ensuring that each element is accurately assigned, which is particularly important for complex designs.
