Connect Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor via MCP
Once Elementor MCP is installed and your license is active, the plugin exposes a standard MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint. Any MCP-compatible AI assistant — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, and others — can connect to it using the same configuration. Here's exactly where to find it and how to use it.
Where to find your connection details
Open the Elementor MCP menu in your WordPress admin — it displays your site's MCP endpoint and a ready-to-copy JSON configuration.
The same information is also available directly inside the Elementor editor, via the ✦ Elementor MCP button. It stays locked 🔒 until your license is active.
The configuration to copy
This is the exact format the plugin generates for your site (only the URL and the encoded password change from one site to another):
{
"mcpServers": {
"elementor-mcp-createur": {
"url": "https://<votre-site>/wp-json/elementor-mcp-createur/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Basic <base64(MCP_ELEMENTOR:app-password)>" }
}
}
}"url" is your site's MCP endpoint. "Authorization" is a Basic auth header built from the MCP_ELEMENTOR account and its Application Password, encoded in base64 — your plugin's configuration page builds this string for you, you never need to encode it by hand.
The Application Password is shown only once, right when the plugin is activated. Copy or save it at that moment — if you lose it, generate a fresh one from your WordPress user profile (Users → MCP_ELEMENTOR → Application Passwords) and update the configuration above with the new value.
Where to paste it, depending on your assistant
- Claude Desktop — add the block above under mcpServers in your claude_desktop_config.json file, then restart the app.
- Claude Code — add the same server through your MCP settings or configuration file, then reload.
- Cursor — paste it into Cursor's MCP server settings.
- ChatGPT or another MCP client — add it wherever that client manages external tool connections; the JSON shape stays identical.
Checking the connection works
Open a new conversation with your connected assistant and simply ask it to check the connection — for example "list the tools available on my Elementor MCP server" or "run get-site-info". If it's connected, the assistant will read back details about your WordPress site.
