The page also says the feature is genuinely Free and appears under The Plus Addons > Extensions in the Plus Special group, not under Widgets. That matters because people often look in the wrong place and think the feature is missing. **Q: Can I copy a section from one WordPress site and paste it into another site in Elementor?** A: Cross Domain Copy Paste is built for exactly that workflow: copy a section, column, or widget in one Elementor editor tab and paste it into a different WordPress site's editor. The key detail is that it works across domains instead of only within the same site. In practice, that makes it useful when you are moving design pieces between separate sites without rebuilding them from scratch. **Q: Why does paste do nothing on the second site?** A: The most likely issue is that Cross Domain Copy Paste is not enabled on both sites. The troubleshooting note says it must be active at The Plus Addons > Extensions in the Plus Special group on the source site and the destination site. That is the first thing to verify because the feature depends on both ends being switched on before Elementor can accept the pasted element. **Q: Is cross domain copy paste really free in The Plus Addons for Elementor?** A: The page says this extension is genuinely Free, and that was confirmed on the live Extensions screen with a FREE badge in the Plus Special group. It also notes that this was confirmed in the free plugin's own source. That makes it different from features that are only described as free in marketing text but not shown that way inside the plugin. **Q: What is a practical use case for cross domain copy paste instead of rebuilding layouts manually?** A: It is useful when you want to move a section, column, or widget between separate WordPress sites and keep working inside Elementor. The page frames it as a faster alternative to recreating content by hand across domains. A good rule of thumb is to use it for reusable design pieces, especially when you already have a layout working on one site and want it on another without starting over.
