By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have the knowledge and tools to create toggle buttons that enhance user experience and engagement.
What Is a Toggle Button in Elementor?
A toggle button is a type of button that you can add to your site to show or hide content with a single click. It works like a light switch that you can turn on or off.
Toggle buttons, also known as switches, are user interface elements that allow users to switch between two states. Toggle buttons are popular because they save space on the page while providing a seamless and interactive user experience.
When the toggle button is on, it shows the primary content; when it’s off, it switches the content again. It’s a helpful feature because it allows you to organize your website’s information in a more interactive and space-saving way.
For example, you can use a toggle button to display a dual pricing table to display your multiple pricing packages interactively.
