​
Pre-Installation Checklist

Confirm the site is on WordPress 6.9+ (latest 6.9.x recommended) from Dashboard → Updates or Tools → Site Health.
Skelementor targets Elementor 4.0+, where the Atomic Editor (Atomic Elements, Classes, Variables) is the stable foundation—not a separate beta track. New Elementor installs enable Atomic features by default; if your site was created earlier or Atomic was disabled, turn Atomic Editor on before importing.
1

Check version

In WordPress admin, open Elementor → System Info and confirm Elementor 4.0.0 or newer (install or update from the Elementor plugin page if needed).
2

Confirm Atomic Editor

Go to Elementor → Editor → Settings and ensure Atomic Editor is enabled, or follow Elementor’s in-editor notice when Atomic is available but off.
3

Enable Variables if needed

Turn on Variables if your import workflow includes reusable design tokens.
Confirm PHP version, available memory, and file permissions are sufficient for plugin installation and larger imports.

​
What You Should Have Ready

  • the latest Skelementor plugin ZIP
  • access to WordPress admin
  • Elementor 4.0+ with Atomic Editor enabled (default on new installs)
  • the bundled skelementor-utilities.css file or your own custom CSS set

​
