Answer
To ensure your Elementor template shows up in Listdom’s Details Page settings, the templates should be created within Listdom > Elementor Styles. If you’ve built the template using Elementor’s default theme builder, it won’t be recognized or available in the Listdom settings.
Here’s how you can fix it and ensure your template is usable:
Create Templates in Listdom > Elementor Styles
Listdom’s custom integration with Elementor allows you to design templates specifically for Listdom pages. When you create your styles in Listdom > Elementor Styles, they become selectable in the Details Page settings.
- Why it Matters: Templates made in Elementor’s default theme builder aren’t linked to Listdom’s functionality, which is why you won’t see them in Listdom settings. By using Listdom’s Elementor integration, the templates will be available for listings, subscriptions, and more.

How to Assign Templates to Different Levels
- Details Page Setting: Go to Listdom > Settings > Details Page, and assign a default template for all listings. This template will be used unless overridden at the category or listing level.
- Category Level: Head to the category settings and assign a specific Elementor style to listings within that category. This is useful if you have a paid subscription category that requires a different design.
- Individual Listings: When adding or editing a listing, you can choose a unique Elementor style for that listing only. This level of control allows you to offer a customized look and feel for specific listings.
Best Practices for Managing Elementor Templates in Listdom
- Template Organization: Keep your templates organized by naming them based on their purpose (e.g., Paid Subscription Template, Free Subscription Template).
- Testing Templates: Before applying templates to live listings, make sure to test them on a staging site to ensure they display correctly across different categories or listing types.
- Design Flexibility: You can use Elementor’s advanced features like dynamic content, custom CSS, and responsive design options to make each template uniquely suited for your directory needs.
