Did you see our new flyout on the website? Yes! 😍 The one that slides-in when you click on the ELEMENTOR WIDGETS menu.

This is built using the Off-Canvas widget of the Ultimate Addons for Elementor!

  • You can show off attractive offers that slide-in through an off-canvas panel.
  • You can add links to related articles and products when the user is scrolling down the page.
These are just a few applications among many others that will help you –

Interesting? I am sure it is!

Let us quickly brush through the basic concepts of what off-canvas content is all about and how has it emerged to make websites more interactive and fun to surf through.

πŸ‘‰ Basic Concept Behind Off-Canvas

Sometimes, we have a lot to say and share with our readers. But, not everyone is interested in all you have to say. Some like it short, simple and crisp!

The main and basic concept behind the off-canvas widget is to let you add such additional information into a block that stays away from the viewport but slides in when triggered. This will make sure that the additional information that you add will be shown to interested users only – and in short, improve user experience and engagement on a page.

This can further be modified and used to display a trendy flyout, a banner to display offers, a panel with another page embedded on it, links to different pages or related posts, etc.

πŸ‘‰ Off-Canvas Content Now and Later!

Facebook Canvas Ads have already become a boon for businesses to place their ads while users are still scrolling through the timeline. This is just a reference we can take of how well the off-canvas content is already working.

The future of it looks bright too! With mobile and small screen devices being popular nowadays, it is important to bring out a solution to display optimized content for smaller screens.

Now, this is where off-canvas makes the place! πŸ’–
