# How to make any Section, Column, Container Clickable in Elementor using Wrapper Link? [FREE]

## 

- Wrapper Link makes an entire section, column, or container clickable, and it is a free feature in The Plus Addons for Elementor.
- The Plus Addons for Elementor keeps Wrapper Link off by default under The Plus Addons > Extensions in the Plus Special group, even when other Free extras are already on.
- Wrapper Link adds a destination URL in the Elementor editor’s Advance tab, then clicking anywhere inside the section, column, or container navigates to that URL after publish.

Wrapper Link makes an entire section, column or container clickable, so visitors can click anywhere inside it instead of only on a button or a piece of text.

It is a genuinely Free feature, but it is off by default even when other Free extras are already switched on - confirmed on this test site.

***Requirement - This extension is a part of The Plus Addons for Elementor, make sure it’s installed & activated to enjoy all its powers.***

## Before You Start

- **Edition:** **Free** — confirmed on The Plus Addons > Extensions screen (Plus Special group, FREE badge).- **Extension to enable:** Wrapper Link, switched on under **The Plus Addons > Extensions** (Plus Special group) — it was off by default even with other extras on, confirmed on this test site.

## Steps

- Enable **Wrapper Link** at **The Plus Addons > Extensions** (Plus Special group), then save. This is a separate toggle from other extras and is off by default.- Select a Section, Column or Container in the Elementor editor and open its **Advance** tab.- Open the new **Wrapper Link** section and turn on the **Wrapper Link** switcher.- Enter the destination URL in the **Wrapper Link** field that appears.- Publish the page - clicking anywhere inside that section, column or container now navigates to the URL.

## How It Behaves

Confirmed via the raw server response (not the browser DOM) that the feature is wired correctly end to end: the section's opening tag carries `data-tp-sc-link="<url>"` and `data-tp-sc-link-external`, and the click-handler script is correctly enqueued in the page footer only when the link is set - exactly matching the plugin's source. The click itself (a delegated jQuery handler that appends and clicks a hidden link) was not exercised in a live browser session this time; an authenticated browser request to the same URL did not show the same markup, which looks like a caching inconsistency on this particular Docker test site rather than a plugin bug, since the anonymous server response was correct.

## Limitations

- Off by default - do not assume it is available just because other Extensions toggles are on.- The interactive click-through was not independently confirmed in a live browser this session (see above); mark as not fully verified end to end.

## Troubleshooting

### Clicking the section does nothing

Confirm Wrapper Link is switched on at The Plus Addons > Extensions (Plus Special group) - it is a separate toggle from Cross Domain Copy Paste and the other Plus Special extras, and is off by default.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: Why isn’t my Elementor section clickable after I turn on Wrapper Link?**
A: Wrapper Link is off by default, even when other Plus Special extras are already enabled. The usual miss is enabling a different extension and assuming this one came along with it. In The Plus Addons for Elementor, The Plus Addons, Plus Addons for Elementor, POSIMYTH, Wrapper Link is a separate toggle under Extensions, so the section will not respond until that specific switch is on and the page is saved.

**Q: Can I make a section, column, or container clickable in Elementor without using a button?**
A: Wrapper Link is built for that exact use case. It turns the whole section, column, or container into one clickable area, so visitors can click anywhere inside it instead of hunting for a button or linked text. That is useful when you want the entire card or block to act like a single destination in Elementor.

**Q: What do I need before using Wrapper Link in Elementor?**
A: The extension has to be part of The Plus Addons for Elementor and activated first. The page also shows it as a Free feature in the Plus Special group, with the Wrapper Link toggle available under The Plus Addons > Extensions. If the plugin is not installed and activated, the wrapper link controls will not be available in the editor.

**Q: What happens after I add a URL to Wrapper Link?**
A: The whole section, column, or container becomes a click target that navigates to that URL when published. The page also notes that the section’s opening tag carries data-tp-sc-link and data-tp-sc-link-external in the server response, and the click-handler script is enqueued only when a link is set. That matters because it shows the feature is tied to the actual markup, not just editor settings.

**Q: Is Wrapper Link fully verified to work end to end?**
A: The server-side wiring was confirmed, but the interactive click-through was not independently exercised in a live browser session. The page also mentions an authenticated browser request that did not show the same markup on this Docker test site, which points to caching inconsistency on that setup rather than a plugin issue. For real testing, that means markup checks and live clicks can tell different stories.

**Q: What should I check if clicking the section does nothing?**
A: Wrapper Link being off is the first thing to verify. It is a separate toggle under The Plus Addons > Extensions in the Plus Special group and stays off by default, even if Cross Domain Copy Paste or other Plus Special extras are enabled. That separation is easy to miss, so a dead click target usually means the wrapper link switch never got turned on.
