Prepare an Elementor-oriented export whose resolved design-system tokens and primitives map to Global Colors, Global Fonts, Theme Style, breakpoints, and native Elementor controls, with an explicit Off/Seed/Sync ownership policy.
Where: Publish → WordPress (Elementor mode) — Publish in Elementor mode
Key ideas
- Elementor export mode: Packages supported flowmo structures for an Elementor-oriented WordPress project rather than the Pages or ACF Blocks export shape.
- Mapped widget controls: Collection/field configuration becomes editable widget/theme data where the exporter supports it.
- Design-system ownership policy: Off sends no styling bridge; Seed writes only when safe and preserves later WordPress edits; Sync makes flowmo authoritative on every publish.
- Native controls rather than classes alone: Elementor compiles control values into widget CSS, so editable appearance must be represented as Global/Theme Style values or registered controls, not only as classes around flowmo markup.
Steps
- Set the project/export type to Elementor and finish the page/widget design plus CMS schema.
- Open Publish → WordPress and select the connected staging site.
- Review the generated Elementor theme/widget scope and selective content options.
- Push to staging, open the result in Elementor, and verify responsive layout, controls, assets, and dynamic data before production use.
- Choose Elementor export mode and open the content/design-system options.
- Choose Off, Set up once (Seed), or Keep synced before publishing.
- Generate/export the Elementor bundle and inspect its bridge notes/fallbacks.
- Test on staging and verify native Elementor widgets plus panel values before production use.
Limitations and important notes
- Third-party Elementor/WordPress plugins and theme CSS can change the result.
- Not every flowmo-only interaction/editor feature necessarily maps to an Elementor-native control.
- The kit generation, PHP endpoints, and decision logic exist, but the final publish-side request that reads/writes the live Elementor kit is not wired yet.
- The generated integration has not been executed against a real Elementor site in this source audit.
