Related Frequently Asked Questions


What if the Menu (Elementor Experimental) widget doesn't appear after tagging?

If the Menu (Elementor Experimental) widget doesn't show up after tagging, ensure that the Elementor Pro plugin is installed and activated. The widget must also be activated within Elementor. Sometimes, minor adjustments in the widget settings may be necessary to match your design, especially for elements that are not tagged correctly.

What is the best practice for tagging menu items in Figma?

When tagging menu items in Figma, ensure that you select the correct frame or container that holds your menu elements. Use the Manual Widget Tagging Option for precise control. This method allows you to specify menu titles and links accurately, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of your design in Elementor.

What happens if I skip the Manual Widget Tagging Option?

If you skip the Manual Widget Tagging Option, you may not have full control over how your menu elements are tagged. This could lead to incorrect or missing menu items in Elementor, affecting the overall functionality and appearance of your site. It's essential to follow the tagging process to ensure everything exports correctly.

Are there any limitations when using the UiChemy Figma Plugin for menu tagging?

One limitation is that the UiChemy Figma Plugin only supports the Menu (Elementor Experimental) widget from Elementor Pro. It does not convert designs from any other design tools besides Figma, and it is not compatible with other page builders like Divi or WPBakery. This means you need to ensure your design is compatible before tagging.
