 * Hey Community,
 * Doesn’t matter which element I use, there is only the visual editor shown – the
   option to change to the code editor (html) is gone. Is is not part of the free
   version any longer?
 * Best regards!

 * Hi,
 * Currently, there is such a feature in Elementor.
    ut to edit HTML sections directly
   you can simply use the Classic Editor of WordPress which can let you see the 
   visual and text version of the page.
 * We also have an HTML widget that lets you embed code directly in a section, from
   our visual editor.

 * I hope this information helped you.

 * Hello,
 * Unfortunately, this does not help. When clicking the button to use the classic
   WP editor, it says: “Please note that you are switching to WordPress default 
   editor. Your current layout, design and content might break.” This is of course
   not what I want;)
 * The HTML widget is not helpful in this case as well, as I need to add html code
   in another element of Elementor.
 * Any other tips? Thanks!

 * Hey, I’d suggest you check out our site for developers, this will allow you to
   create a custom version of Elementor’s widget that will suit your need.
 * The site includes guides and refrence codes to start with, and you can also get
   the source code of our widgets to take as a basis and just edit them to create
   a custom widget.
 * I handpicked a few pages that should help you:

 * Hope it helps.
