How to Import an Elementor 404 Template
A designed 404 page keeps lost visitors on your site with search, popular links, and a clear way home. These templates import as Error 404 theme parts.
- 1
Download the template file
On the component page, click Download JSON. You get a single .json file exported in the correct theme template format.
- 2
Import it into Elementor
In WP Admin go to Templates, then Saved Templates, and click Import Templates. Choose the downloaded .json file. Because the file carries the right template type, Elementor files it under the matching Theme Builder section automatically.

Point the links somewhere useful
Edit the template and set the home button and the popular-links lists to your real pages. Illustration-slot variants ship with a placeholder image sized for the layout; swap in your own artwork.

Set the display condition
Open Templates, then Theme Builder, find the imported template and click Add Condition. Choose Include, then Singular, then 404 Page. Conditions never travel inside the JSON file; setting them is always your final step.
Troubleshooting
The template imported but nothing shows on my site
You have not set a display condition yet. Elementor only applies a theme template where its conditions say so; add the condition described above and reload the page.
It imported as a regular saved template, not a theme part
The file was probably re-saved or edited and lost its type field. Re-download the original .json from Snapelement and import it unchanged.
