We have decided to make Elementor Pro – one of the most popular Premium WordPress plugins from our Special Gifts section – available to everyone who has a free account at GPLDL.
You can find Elementor Pro now in the regular Premium WordPress Plugins repository.
Since a number of users reported, that Elementor Pro requires a license code to be fully operational, we would like to ask our users, if someone is capable of providing the community with a step by step instruction of how to create a “nulled version” of Elementor Pro so that everyone is able to use it, even without a serial number.
As always we will just release the 100% original, unmodified code of Elementor here (no nulled version) but believe that it might be useful to know how to “null it yourself”.
Any contribution in this post is highly appreciated.
January 26, 2019 at 7:27 pm #20962caj2ParticipantBelow are the steps I went through to create a “nulled version” of Elementor Pro. Please note that this may not be the best way to do this, so let me know if you have a better solution. Also, the premium Elementor Library templates WILL NOT WORK, because the data for the templates are fetched from the Elementor API, which requires a valid license code to return the template data.
STEP 1:
Locate the elementor-pro directory for your installation. If you have just downloaded the zip file, you can make the following edits, rezip the folder, and then upload/activate the new zip in your WordPress installation of choice. If you have already installed the unmodified plugin, you can edit the files in the wp-content/plugins/elementor-pro/ directory.
STEP 2:
Find this block of code in the file license/api.php file:
public static function get_license_data( $force_request = false ) {
$license_data = get_transient( 'elementor_pro_license_data' );if ( false === $license_data || $force_request ) {
$body_args = [
'edd_action' => 'check_license',
'license' => Admin::get_license_key(),
];$license_data = self::remote_post( $body_args );
if ( is_wp_error( $license_data ) ) {
$license_data = [
'license' => 'http_error',
'payment_id' => '0',
'license_limit' => '0',
'site_count' => '0',
'activations_left' => '0',
];self::set_license_data( $license_data, 30 * MINUTE_IN_SECONDS );
} else {
self::set_license_data( $license_data );
}
}return $license_data;
}
Replace the code with this:
public static function get_license_data( $force_request = false ) {
return $license_data = [
'license' => Admin::get_license_key(),
'payment_id' => '0',
'license_limit' => '100',
'site_count' => '100',
'activations_left' => '100',
];
}
STEP 3:
Find this block of code in the file license/admin.php:
public static function get_license_key() {
return trim( get_option( 'elementor_pro_license_key' ) );
}
Replace with this code:
public static function get_license_key() {
return 'fb351f05958872E193feb37a505a84be';
}
You can actually replace that string above with anything you want, because none of them are valid codes, but your local installation doesn’t know that.And…..that’s it! Make sure to upload the modified plugin or reload you admin dashboard. If you go to <your installation url here>/wp-admin/admin.php?page=elementor-license, the page should show Status: Active.

February 7, 2019 at 4:05 am #21026Ciprian StoicescuParticipantAre you sure this is working? If I access the library, I cannot use the pro elements. Can you answer me? Thanks.
February 8, 2019 at 4:07 am #21029AnonymousInactiveHi @Ciprian Stoicescu,
If you are referring to the pro templates then these will not work as a server side check is performed prior to being able to download them.
Essentially the null just removes the nag about activating the product.
February 14, 2019 at 3:30 pm #21065AnonymousInactiveMarch 6, 2019 at 5:42 am #21158yournamehereParticipantNow the addon is gone from the repo. What happend?
March 6, 2019 at 5:56 am #21159AnonymousInactiveMarch 6, 2019 at 4:00 pm #211627h3hKeymasterThe License of Elementor Pro has changed to a non-GPL proprietary license (https://elementor.com/terms/), which in itself is most likely a GPL-violation. We have removed the plugin from the directory to clarify the issue.
@Chris: Once more, no links to externals downloads.March 7, 2019 at 4:15 am #21164AnonymousInactiveElementor Pro and the stance on GPL licence has been vague for quite some time now and is nothing new, stating the licence has changed is a little misleading to say the least …
For anyone requiring any plugins you can contact me on my discord channel [LINK REMOVED BY ADMIN]
All plugins shared are done so under the GPL licence and and either purchased by myself or come from a trustworthy source, you are free and encouraged to scan each plugin with Virus Total to be absolutely certain.
Unlike others i do not pose download restrictions and all plugins are supplied totally free of charge.
All i ask of you is you do not try and profit out of my generosity.

March 7, 2019 at 3:09 pm #211677h3hKeymasterChris, once more:
We do appreciate your knowledge and insights on how to null certain plugins and everything you share on the “how to” in the forum. What we do not accept is links outside to freehosting alternatives and distribution of items through that links, that may or may not contain malware. Virus Total checks of plugins are totally pointless in this regard and misleading because they give all kinds of false positives and do not detect any malicious code manipulations.
We will not compromise on GPLDL being a highly credible and reliable source of true originals, which we directly obtain from the developers. Any kind of code manipulation in flies that you link to create a potential security risk for a user who follows these links and in most instances a trademark problem, when you redistribute it under the same name.
We wish you all the best with your project, but we will not support it here.
