Why can't I edit the header and the footer in the Elementor?
Please note that currently, you cannot directly edit the header/footer with Elementor.
There are options to replace them with Elementor templates or use Elementor exclusive header/footer but both of these require Elementor Pro.For the default header and footer, you can change options for these sections in the
Customizer panel.
Update:
With the new Phlox Pro header and footer builder, you can replace your default header and footer with a completely customized and editable header/footer section inside Elementor.
