Import template from library is a WordPress ability from ElementsKit Elementor Addons — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Import template from library
WriteImport a ready-made Template Library template, section, or page into an Elementor document.
Requires the ElementsKit Elementor Addons plugin (elementskit-lite) with Elementor active, on WordPress 6.9+ for the Abilities API (abilities are registered only when wp_register_ability() exists). Read-only listing abilities require 'edit_posts' (list-widgets, list-templates, list-library-templates), 'manage_options' (list-custom-widgets), or 'edit_theme_options' (list-mega-menus); write abilities that target a specific Elementor document (insert-widget, insert-template, import-library-template) require 'edit_posts' plus 'edit_post' on that document; template, header/footer, custom-widget, and mega-menu creation/configuration abilities require 'manage_options' (create-mega-menu additionally requires 'edit_theme_options'); create-page requires 'edit_pages' or 'edit_posts'.
What it does
Given a target post_id and a template_id from the Template Library (obtained via list-library-templates), this ability pulls that template's content into the target Elementor document and returns the ids of any newly inserted root elements plus a preview_url. This lets an AI assistant populate a page with a professionally designed section or full-page layout in one call instead of manually browsing and inserting library content through the editor.
