Pearl Header Builder (Deprecated)

The Pearl Header Builder plugin is deprecated and not compatible with latest versions of the theme.

The Pearl Header Builder plugin is deprecated from theme version 6.4.3 and cannot be selected as a header builder in theme options. Related Header styles will be removed for new theme installations and demo import.

The Pearl Header Builder keeps working for previously installed sites and is supported. When a different Header Builder is selected, you will not be able to use Pearl Header Builder again and it will be disabled.

The WordPress Header Builder Plugin – Pearl that stays under the Pearl Header Builder option is an individual plugin that helps easily build any header layout for your website.

We suggest to try Default Header Styles or Elementor Header & Footer builder.

When a custom header is built using Elementor Header & Footer Builder plugin and selected Display on the Entire website, instead of the default header custom header will be displayed.
