The Quick View widget’s built-in preview layout is a sensible default, but it won’t always match a heavily customized product or post design.
Setting Quickview to Custom Template lets you design the entire popup content yourself as an Elementor template, then have Quick View render that template with the clicked post/product’s own data.
For the full settings tour of every Woo Builder widget, see Woo Builder Settings Overview.
