# Premium Addons for Elementor

Premium Addons for Elementor adds dozens of widgets, a mega menu, display conditions and WooCommerce widgets to free Elementor. Our take on the free and PRO versions, the widgets to switch off, the settings to check and the patched vulnerabilities worth knowing.

## The essentials

- Best for free Elementor sites that want a mega menu, carousels and display conditions.
- Main caveat: everything is on at install, and more than forty patched vulnerabilities to keep up with.
- Free; PRO costs $49 a year or $149 lifetime for one site, before promotions.

## What Premium Addons for Elementor does on your site

Premium Addons for Elementor adds widgets and add-ons to the [Elementor](https://www.wp-masquerade.com/features/camouflaged-plugins/elementor/) panel. The vendor counts more than 90 of them, free and Pro combined: a carousel built from any Elementor template, a mega menu and an off-canvas mobile menu, a blog widget with several skins, AJAX search, a media gallery, a modal box, Google Maps, pricing tables and testimonials. On top of that come add-ons that work on any container or widget: display conditions (device, user role, date, URL parameters, ACF fields, WooCommerce cart and more), a wrapper link that makes a whole container clickable, tooltips, floating effects and equal height. The free Elementor plugin is enough; you don’t need Elementor Pro.

The plugin also ships a library of section and page templates you insert from the editor, a duplicator for pages and templates, cross-domain copy and paste between two sites, and free WooCommerce widgets (products listing, categories listing, mini cart and add-to-cart buttons). An optional MCP server, off by default, lets an AI assistant build Elementor pages; every action runs with the permissions of the connected WordPress user.

The vendor is Leap13. The model is freemium: Premium Addons PRO is a separate plugin installed alongside the free one. It adds the Pro widgets (a table with sorting and search, tabs, horizontal scroll, Magic Scroll, Google, Facebook and Yelp reviews), the Pro templates and WooCommerce display conditions.

## Which sites Premium Addons suits best

Premium Addons is a good fit for:

- **Sites built with free Elementor** that want a mega menu, carousels and display conditions without buying Elementor Pro.
- **Small WooCommerce stores**: the products, categories and mini cart widgets are free.
- **Agencies and freelancers**: the Pro license comes in an unlimited-sites tier, yearly or lifetime, and cross-domain copy and paste saves time from one client site to the next.

It’s the wrong pick if your site doesn’t run Elementor (the plugin does nothing without it), if you build with the block editor, or if you only need two or three widgets: every addon pack is more code to maintain and update. It’s also worth comparing with [Essential Addons for Elementor](https://www.wp-masquerade.com/features/camouflaged-plugins/essential-addons-for-elementor/), which keeps conditional display for its Pro version.

## Premium Addons for Elementor: strengths and limitations

### Strengths

- **A generous free version.** Mega menu, template carousel, AJAX search and WooCommerce widgets all work without a license.
- **Free display conditions.** Showing or hiding a container by device, role, date or ACF field doesn’t require Pro.
- **Modular by design.** Each widget can be switched off in the dashboard, and one button finds the ones your pages don’t use.
- **A lifetime license.** Pro is available as a one-time payment, for a single site or unlimited sites.

### Limitations

- **Everything is on at install.** All widgets and add-ons are enabled by default, so the cleanup is up to you.
- **Popular widgets are Pro only.** Table, tabs, horizontal scroll, Google reviews and WooCommerce conditions are paid features.
- **Lots of security fixes.** The Patchstack database lists more than forty patched vulnerabilities, mostly stored XSS that needs a contributor account.
- **Pro upsells in the admin.** The plugin menu shows a “Get PRO” entry with the current discount.

## The Premium Addons settings we recommend

All of these live in the Premium Addons for Elementor menu of the dashboard.

| Setting | Recommended value | Why |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Scan & Disable Unused Widgets**  Premium Addons for Elementor > Widgets & Add-ons | Run the scan once the site is built | Turns off the widgets no page uses, so the editor loads less code. |
| **Dynamic Assets Generate**  Same screen | On | Builds per-page CSS and JS files limited to the elements on the page; the vendor recommends it. |
| **Clear Generated Assets**  Same screen | After an update that breaks the layout | Forces the files to be rebuilt; then purge your caching plugin. |
| **Duplicator** and **Cross-Domain Copy N’ Paste**  Premium Addons for Elementor > Features | Off if you don’t use them | Every unused feature you switch off is less exposed code. |
| **Enable MCP & AI Abilities**  Premium Addons for Elementor > MCP Config & AI Abilities | Off (default) unless you really need it | If you turn it on, disable unneeded actions under Manage AI Abilities and revoke connections you no longer use. |
| **Google Maps API Key**  Premium Addons for Elementor > Integrations | Only if you use the Google Maps widget | Restrict the key to your domain in the Google Cloud console so it can’t be reused elsewhere. |
| **Load Maps API JS File**  Same screen | Off if your theme or another plugin already loads Google Maps | Avoids loading the same script twice. |
| **Become a Beta Tester**  Premium Addons for Elementor > Version Control | Off (default) | The vendor itself advises against beta versions on production sites. |

- After scanning for unused widgets, open your main pages and your header template: nothing should be missing.
- With dynamic assets on, purge the cache and load a page in a private window to check styles and animations.
- In Plugins, confirm that Premium Addons for Elementor, and Premium Addons PRO if you have it, are up to date.
- If MCP is enabled, review the connection list in the MCP tab and remove any you don’t recognize.

## Premium Addons security: frequent but medium-severity vulnerabilities

Like most large Elementor widget packs, Premium Addons patches vulnerabilities often. The dominant family is stored [XSS](https://www.wp-masquerade.com/glossary/xss/): a contributor account places a script in a widget setting that is later output without enough escaping. Nothing on the Patchstack list goes beyond medium severity. The cases worth knowing:

- **CVE-2024-6824, fixed in 4.10.39**: a contributor could delete arbitrary content and change post titles because of a missing capability check.
- **CVE-2025-14155, fixed in 4.11.54**: an unauthenticated visitor could read private, draft and pending templates (CVSS 5.3).
- **CVE-2026-4790, fixed in 4.11.71**: stored XSS through the `custom_svg` parameter, with a contributor account.
- **CVE-2026-109890, fixed in 4.11.111**: broken access control reported in October 2026 (CVSS 5.3).

Releases sometimes ship several times a week, and several mention security hardening: turn on automatic updates for the plugin (see our guide to automatic plugin updates) and give the contributor role only to people you trust. For the builder itself, read our article on [Elementor security vulnerabilities](https://www.wp-masquerade.com/elementor-security-vulnerabilities/). WP Masquerade Pro renames the `pa` and `premium` handles of scripts and stylesheets as well as the `uploads/premium-addons-elementor` folder, while the `premium-*` classes stay visible: that makes the plugin harder for bots to spot, without replacing updates.

## Premium Addons for Elementor FAQ

**Do I need Elementor Pro to use Premium Addons?**

No. Free Elementor is enough, for the free plugin and for Premium Addons PRO alike. Elementor itself must be installed, though: without it the plugin does nothing.

**How much does Premium Addons PRO cost?**

The vendor’s pricing page lists $49 per year for one site, $99 per year for unlimited sites, or a one-time $149 (one site) and $299 (unlimited sites), before any promotion. Refunds are available within 14 days.

**Does Premium Addons slow down my site?**

It depends on how many widgets a page uses. Disable the ones you don’t need and keep dynamic assets on so only the required CSS and JavaScript load; then measure your pages before and after.

**Can I use it alongside another Elementor addon pack?**

Technically yes, but every pack adds its own scripts and its own potential vulnerabilities. If two packs cover the same needs, keep one and delete the other.
