List Elementor Templates is a WordPress ability from The Plus Addons for Elementor — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →List Elementor Templates
Read-onlyReturns all saved Elementor templates from the template library, optionally filtered by template type.
Requires the The Plus Addons for Elementor plugin (which registers under the 'tpae' ability category) on WordPress 6.9+, with Elementor active. Every ability requires the current user to have the 'edit_posts' capability (and 'edit_post' for the specific post being modified); abilities that create or edit content also verify Elementor and, where relevant, the target The Plus widget are available. A subset of abilities (theme templates, template conditions, dynamic tags, popups, and some custom-code abilities) only register when Elementor Pro is active, and many widget abilities load only in the free plugin when the Pro add-on is inactive.
What it does
execute_list_templates runs a WP_Query against the elementor_library post type with status publish, optionally filtered by a meta_query on _elementor_template_type, ordered by date descending, and returns up to 100 templates with id, title, type (read from post meta), and date.
