Advanced Trip Widget
Show a grid of trips on any page using the Elementor Advanced Trip widget, with column layouts, trip selection, and per-element styling you can match to your brand.
Overview
Show your trips in a grid on any page with the Elementor Advanced Trip widget. You can choose which trips appear, decide how many visitors see in each row, and control the information displayed on every trip card.
A widget is a ready-made content block that you add to a page. Elementor is the page builder inside WordPress that lets you place and customize widgets with a live preview.
Add the Advanced Trip widget
Before you start, make sure Elementor and WP Travel Engine are active. Check their status from Plugins in the left sidebar of your WordPress dashboard.
Open your page in Elementor
From the left sidebar of your WordPress dashboard, find the page and select Edit with Elementor. You now have a live view of your page while you make changes.
Add the widget
In the Elementor panel on the left side of the editor, search for Advanced Trip. Drag the widget to the part of the page where you want your trips to appear. You should now see the trip grid preview on your page.
Choose your settings
These settings help you show the right trips and the details your customers need. Start with Layout settings and Query settings. Adjust the style after your trips appear. When you are happy with the result, select Publish or Update in the lower-left corner of the Elementor panel.
You can change these settings later without changing the trip information itself. Set the layout first so the widget fits the space on your page. Then choose which trips to show.
Layout settings
Layout settings control how the trips are arranged on your page. Use them to pick the grid that fits your space.
- Column: Sets the number of trips shown per row. For example, 3 columns means three trips side by side.
- Row Gap: Sets the space between rows and columns of trips. Increase it when the cards feel crowded.
- Layout: Lets you choose from several layout options. Each one arranges the trips differently. Pick the one that fits your page.
Say you have six day tours to show on a landing page. Three columns with a moderate row gap lets visitors compare them at a glance. Two columns with more space might work better for longer multi-day treks where each card has more detail.
When the grid fits your page, choose which trips to show.
Query settings
Query settings decide which trips appear in the grid. You can use different settings on different pages.
- Show Trips by: Chooses how WP Travel Engine selects trips. You can show the latest trips, trips on sale, featured trips, trips filtered by a term, or specific trips selected from a list.
- Number of Trips: Sets the total number of trips to display.
For example, you could show your latest trips on your homepage. On a seasonal offers page, you might choose trips on sale. On a destination page, you could filter by a term like "Annapurna" to show only treks in that region.
After you choose the trips, decide which details visitors should see.
Additional settings
Additional settings control the information shown for each trip. Show the details that help travelers decide whether a trip is right for them.
- Featured Ribbon: Shows a "featured" ribbon on selected trips. Use it to draw attention to a signature trek or your most popular package.
- Discount: Shows the discount percentage for trips that are on sale. For example, a trip with a seasonal price reduction can display its percentage savings.
- Review: Shows trip reviews so visitors can see feedback from previous travelers.
- Location: Shows the trip's location, such as the Annapurna region or a nearby national park.
- Title: Shows the trip title, such as "Kathmandu Valley Day Tour" or "Everest Base Camp Trek."
- Title Meta: Adds the supporting trip information shown with the title, such as its duration or other trip details.
- Price: Shows the trip price.
- Show Striked Price on Sale: Shows the original price with a line through it when a trip is on sale. Visitors can compare the original price with the sale price.
- Duration Type: Choose whether the trip duration appears in days or nights. Use nights when you describe overnight stays to your travelers.
- Price Label: Sets the text shown beside or near the price. You might use a label such as "From" for a trip with different pricing options.
- Wishlist: Shows the wishlist icon so visitors can save the trip for later.
You do not need to show every detail. A day tour might only need the title, location, duration, and price. A multi-day package might benefit from reviews, discount information, and a wishlist.
