How to set up an Elementor account for the client.
- Set up an Elementor account for the client and choose the Basic plan. Get an email from the client that they want used. You will need to enter their billing information. Once in, add team@greenhouseuvu.com and the individual team email as an admin, and confirm in the email. Then we will have access to the website separate from the client account. Students will be able to see all team emails in their Elementor account.
- Wait for Elementor to unbox and plug in.

Website Hosting & Setup
Elementor Account Setup
For clients with no existing website or want to switch hosting to Elementor and use a WordPress website.
- Process coming soon! The biggest difference is the domain name setup
For clients with an existing website hosted elsewhere, but still want to build a WordPress website.
- Set up an Elementor account for the client. The Lite plan doesn't offer the page builder app we need, so choose the Basic plan.
- Get an email from the client that they want used. You will need to enter their billing information and credit card, which is best done on a phone call. Share the account password with the client.
- Once the account is made, add team@greenhouseuvu.com and the individual team email as an admin. Be sure to confirm access in the email inbox for each email. This setup allows each team to see all their website clients from their Elementor account, while giving the client their own access. You should not use the client access again to access the client's website, only your team access.
