Well, the simplest and the best answer here is because of the feature and ease of use<\/strong>. Elementor is one of the most popular builders with tons of features. The features, number of widgets, and customization abilities are at the best level possible. Hence, you can have the page in whatever way you want.<\/p>\n Not just limited to this, you can also customize it more with the paid plugins<\/strong>. There is Elementor pro which is the paid version of Elementor. If you don\u2019t want to use the paid version from the official website, you can also go with third-party addons<\/strong>. There are many free as well as paid add-ons from third-party developers. You can use them to add more features to the Elementor.<\/p>\n Almost every feature that you want to add will have multiple options<\/strong>. In simpler words, you can either get the official pro version or you can also get the third-party addons. Even in third-party add-ons, there will be multiple options from which you can choose. Hence, it will make the work a lot easier.<\/p>\n These are the reasons why people go with Elementor.<\/p>\n If we talk about the disadvantage, there is one big disadvantage that you will face. This is only applicable if you go with the Elementor pro version. The disadvantage is that you will have to pay a monthly fee<\/strong>.<\/p>\n This might leave you thinking whether you should migrate from WPBakery to Elementor, right?

We won\u2019t just see one side and tell you that you should do it.<\/p>\n So, let\u2019s see the positive side first.<\/p>\n Now that you know the positive side, we will see the negative side too.<\/p>\n These are the only disadvantages you will face.<\/p>\n Here is the exact answer.

Here are the exact steps you can follow and you can migrate the page builder.<\/p>\n Also, we highly recommend you read the entire guide<\/strong> first before you do any changes. We are also going to see one unique method which you might love. If you plan to implement that, you might not even have to do all these things. So, read the entire guide and then start doing all these.<\/p>\n The first thing is where you will have to make all the things ready for the migration process to work smoothly. We will see how you can do it and what are the important things to keep in mind here.<\/p>\n Backup<\/strong>: The most important thing is the backup of your entire website<\/a>. If you don\u2019t have enough space, you can take the backup of the pages that are created by WPBakery.<\/p>\n Plugins<\/strong>: You can always activate the plugins before you get things started. You can always install the plugin before you make all the changes. You should start with installing Elementor. Don\u2019t deactivate the WPBakery plugin right now. We will do it after the migration.<\/p>\n Partition<\/strong>: You should always see that what are the things made from the WPBakery and what are the elements made with other plugins. You can keep them aside or just make a note for them.<\/p>\n Know the Basics<\/strong>: You should then see the exact colors of the page, the typography of the page, etc. These are some basic things that you should know. You can hit the edit button in the page builder and see all these things. You should keep a note for all of them.<\/p>\n Now that you have the basic things ready, let\u2019s get started – How to Migrate WPBakery to Elementor?<\/p>\n We will first create a page with Elementor<\/strong> and do the basic settings<\/strong>. Here, we will add the global settings first<\/strong>.<\/p>\n There are some of the basic global settings that you need to do. For example, you can add global typography<\/strong>. This will reflect in the entire page. So, when you add text to the page, it will be in the same font and format. This will save your time and your work will be a lot easier. Hence, you should surely do this.<\/p>\n The main global settings that you need to set are colors and typography<\/strong>. The rest of the things can be done during the editing mode<\/strong>. So, there is nothing to worry about it.<\/p>\n You also need to set the layout of the page. If you are creating a landing page, you need to have a completely blank page with no header or footer<\/strong>. So, set the page, and then you can proceed to the shortcode.<\/p>\n Thereafter, you also need to set the shortcodes that are from other plugins. For example, if you are using a slider plugin, you can add the shortcode from the slider<\/strong>. This is how you can do the basic editing of the page builder.<\/p>\n So, make sure that you properly analyze the page and set all the options.<\/p>\n Your next step is to get the sections ready<\/strong>. One of the most important things here is the section. You should ensure that the sections are perfect and they are just like the old page builder.<\/p>\n So, create a new section in Elementor and add the columns here. You can also set the width and edit the columns if you want<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The next thing is optional as you can do it while you create the columns or you can do it after creating the columns. If you wish, you can also add the widgets<\/strong>. Don\u2019t customize it yet<\/strong>, just drag and drop the widget in the column. So, you will know what to do.<\/p>\n By the end of this step, you will have the basic layout ready<\/strong>. This will include sections and columns.<\/p>\n The next step is where we will add the widgets to the columns<\/strong>. If you have done it already, you can ignore this. If not, it\u2019s the place where you will add the widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The next thing you need to do is customize them<\/strong>. You can always use the left panel to do so. There are various tabs<\/strong> where you can explore and make customizations<\/strong>. There are few tutorials available on Elementor\u2019s website<\/strong>. You can also check it out<\/strong> and then make the customizations.<\/p>\n This is also the place where you will add the content and the images. You can copy the text from the existing page and paste it here. In the same way, you can upload the image as well. This is a very important task and you should check things twice before you get started.<\/p>\n Lastly, you can finalize the changes.<\/p>\n The last step is where you can do the finalization of the pages and then clean up the rest of the things.<\/p>\n For the finalization, you can compare Elementor\u2019s page with WPBakery\u2019s page<\/strong> and see if you have successfully migrated WPBakery to Elementor. If some things are missing, you can do them as well.<\/p>\n The last part is the cleaning up. This is where you will remove the WPBakery builder plugin from the website. You should also remove all the shortcodes. You can run a shortcode cleaner and that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n Thereafter, you will have to change the permalinks of the page set the links. For example, you can set the Elementor page as the homepage, etc. This is yet another important thing you need to do.<\/p>\n Now, if you don\u2019t want to do any of this work, there is one easy technique you can use.<\/p>\n We will now see the easy way to do it. It\u2019s an easy way using which you can migrate WPBakery to Elementor but it will cost you money.<\/p>\nShould you migrate from WPBakery to Elementor?<\/h2>\n
