elementor-mcp

elementor-mcp is a WordPress plugin that exposes Elementor page building/editing capabilities as MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools via the WordPress MCP Adapter. It provides many tools to query Elementor structure/widgets/settings and to create/update/delete page content programmatically from MCP-compatible AI clients.

Uses WordPress Application Passwords with HTTP Basic auth to access the MCP endpoint. This is stronger than unauthenticated access, but the provided docs do not describe fine-grained MCP scopes/permissions—authorization likely follows the WordPress user capabilities. The toolset includes destructive operations, so credential protection and least-privilege user roles are important. No details are provided about TLS enforcement mechanics, logging/redaction of secrets, or dependency/version security posture.

Best When

You have a WordPress site with Elementor and the WordPress MCP Adapter, and you want an MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop/Cursor) to programmatically create or edit page designs with granular tool access.

Avoid When

You need read-only access, or you require strict guarantees that prompts/tool inputs cannot alter or delete content (the toolset includes destructive actions like clearing content/removing elements).

Use Cases

  • Let an MCP-capable agent generate and update Elementor pages from structured JSON/tool calls
  • Inspect existing Elementor page structure and widget settings for auditing or refactoring
  • Build pages/components via declarative “composite” structures (e.g., build-page)
  • Automate template/theme/popup creation and application
  • Manage global design tokens (colors/typography) through agent workflows

Not For

  • Public-facing use without strong access control (plugin can modify site content)
  • Fully unattended/anonymous automation where application credentials cannot be protected
  • Environments that cannot run WordPress + Elementor + the MCP Adapter (requirements are tightly coupled)

Authentication

Methods: WordPress Application Password via HTTP Basic Authorization header for the MCP endpoint WP-CLI stdio transport (no HTTP auth mentioned for local dev via WP-CLI command)
OAuth: No Scopes: No

Authentication appears to rely on a WordPress Application Password and HTTP Basic auth for the REST/MCP endpoint. No fine-grained MCP scopes were described in the provided README.

Pricing

Free tier: No
Requires CC: No

README promotes a '50+ Premium Prompts Pack' via Gumroad, but pricing for the plugin itself is not specified in the provided content.

Retry Guidance
Not documented

Known Gotchas

  • Mutating tools can change or delete content (e.g., delete-page-content, remove-element). Agents should confirm targets and avoid blind retries.
  • Element IDs and page structures may shift after operations like move/reorder/duplicate; subsequent tool calls should re-query structure when needed.
  • Pro/conditional widget tools may depend on Elementor/Pro capabilities; agent may need to detect availability via schemas/discovery tools.
