  1. How does this look on tablet and mobile? It doesn’t look pretty for me and I’m curious how you’d make it look great on both tablet and mobile. Thanks!

  2. I love the effect and have been trying to recreate this. However I have to agree with CDIF, I am having a hard time setting things up like you have at the beginning of the video. Maybe also because apparently things have changed a bit with Elementor since this video was released. However the only way I am able to set this up is by using two columns next to each other, adding the gradient to the very right of the left column. But then I would have to add the box shadow to the whole section and even though it is set to “boxed” and the content is in fact boxed, the shadow goes all the way up to the edge of the screen, which looks weird.
    Maybe you could explain how you set up your section and columns a little bit further, that would be super helpful.
    Thank you!

    1. You need to create a section and then add an inner section. Add the box shadow to the two column inner section.

  3. Ebere Oparaeke

    You stated that everything done in the video would be with the free version of Elementor, but the free version does not have the column feature so I couldn’t use the method you showed. I believe that is a pro feature (given the fact that you’re using pro in the video)

      1. How have you embedded the transcript in this page so that it is scrollable within the box but doesnt scroll the whole page? I am assuming its done with elementor
