How to Add Different Templates for Taxonomies with Elementor?

WP Travel uses taxonomies to help organize trips, making it easier for visitors to browse and filter trips by various criteria. WP Travel includes built-in taxonomies such as Trip Types, Destinations, Activities, and Keywords to categorize trips. This guide will show you how to add different templates for taxonomies using Elementor.

Step 1: Activate Required Plugins

• Ensure the following plugins are installed and active:
  • Elementor
  • Elementor Pro
  • WP Travel
  • WT Widgets for Elementor

Additionally, confirm you’re using an Elementor-compatible theme like Travel Elemento.

The archive page for all the taxonomies will be similar to the default archive page.

In this tutorial, we will be creating archive page for trip Types.

Step 2: Create a Loop Item Template

• Go to the Admin Panel: Templates > Saved Templates > Add New Templates

• A popup will be available
  • Select Loop Item as the template type.
  • Give your template a relevant name (e.g., “Trip Type Loop Item”).
  • Click “Create Template” to proceed.

• Design the Loop Item:
  • Use Elementor’s widgets to design the loop item (e.g., add image, title, description).
  • Customize this template to display trip information in a card or list style.

• Once done, click “Publish” to save the template.

Step 3: Create the Archive Template

Once you’ve created a Loop Item Template.

• Return to Templates > Saved Templates
• Click on “Add New Template”

• Select Archive as the template type.
• Provide a name for your archive template (e.g., “Trip Type Archive Page”).
• Click Create Template.

• Design the Archive Page:
  • Use Elementor’s widgets to add elements to your archive template. For example:
    • Add a sidebar: This can include filtering options or other navigation aids.
    • Main Content Area: Add the Loop Grid widget to display the trips.

Step 4: Configure the Loop Grid

• Select the Loop Item:
  • In the Loop Grid widget settings, go to the Layout Tab.
  • Select the Loop Item Template you created in Step 2.

• Set Query Settings:
  • Set the source to “Current Query” to display trip posts.

• Once your archive page is designed, click Publish.

Step 5: Set Display Conditions

• After publishing, a popup will appear where you can set display conditions

• Choose the appropriate condition (e.g., Include > Trip Type) to apply the template to the relevant taxonomy.
• After defining your conditions, click Save and Close.
  

Here’s the Archive page for the trip types.

Step 6: Repeat for Other Taxonomies

For other taxonomies (like Destinations, Activities, etc.), repeat from Step 2. This allows you to create customized archive templates for each taxonomy.

Conclusion

By following the above-mentioned steps you can easily add different templates for taxonomies with Elementor.
