How to Apply Skins' Style with Different Editor Load Levels

Learn how to use the JetStyleManager plugin for WordPress to save a widget’s style settings as a skin for further application to other widgets and to reduce the loading speed by using the saved skins.

Before you start, check the tutorial requirements:

Things to know

The Load Level of Style Settings in Elementor affects site performance because the specified option determines how many settings are available. The option is available for the JetElements, JetBlocks, JetBlog, JetTabs, and JetTricks plugins. It ranges from “None” to “Full” Levels, with “None” corresponding to the fastest site performance.
Read the How to Speed Up WordPress Website and Crocoblock Plugins tutorial to choose the lower level of settings that will cover your needs and ideas in personalizing the widget’s appearance.

Set Full Editor Load Level

Open the WordPress Dashboard > Crocoblock > JetPlugins Settings > JetElements > General Settings section. Here, set the needed level in the Editor Load Level drop-down menu instead of the default “Full” option.

Things to know

If you use widgets from different plugins, set the Editor Load Level option for each plugin independently.

Settings will be saved automatically.

Create a Design

Open the page in the Elementor editor and drop the widget you would like to use for the creation of the skin. For this example, we use the JetElements plugin’s Pricing Table widget.

Find the widget in the search bar and drag-n-drop it to the page.

Style the widget up in the Style menu tab.

Finally, save the page.

Create a Skin

Click the right mouse button on the widget’s surface, and in the window, click the “Save as Skin” button.

We saved the skin using the specific Style settings for the Pricing Table widget. We can now use it with a lower Editor Load Level.

Apply the Skin at the Lower Loading Level

Now we return to the WordPress Dashboard > Crocoblock > JetPlugins Settings > JetElements > General Settings section and select the “None” option in the Editor Load Level drop-down menu to improve page load time.

Go back to the Elementor editor and either insert a new Pricing Table widget at a specific location or duplicate the one you’re using. Now this widget looks as follows. Moreover, the Style tab is not available.

Then right-click the widget and choose “Apply Skin”.

In the window, click the “Apply” button next to the skin you’ve created.

We get the same widget design we set before, even though the Style settings aren’t available. Now you just need to change the content.

Warning

If the Editor Load Level is the same as it was when we styled the widget or higher, the skin will not be applied. For example, we set the “Medium” Editor Load Level and saved the skin. If we select “Low” or “None” editor Load Levels, the skin will be applied, but not by the “Medium” and “Full” levels.
To restore the widget to its default appearance, right-click the widget and select the “Reset Skin“ button.

That’s it. Now you know how to use the JetStyleManager plugin for WordPress to save a widget’s style settings as a skin for further application to other widgets and to reduce the loading speed by using the saved skins.
