Mega Addons For WPBakery Page Builder Add-ons is a WordPress plugin that adds 32 custom content elements to the WPBakery Page Builder editor, sold on CodeCanyon for $19 by the developer topdigitaltrends. It suits site owners and freelancers who already build pages with WPBakery and want more layout components — accordions, carousels, counters, hover effects and similar blocks — without paying for a separate premium builder. It is not a page builder itself and has no use on a site that does not run WPBakery.
What the addon bundle actually gives a WPBakery site
The core of the product is a library of 32 elements that appear inside the WPBakery element picker once the plugin is active. Each one is a drag-and-drop block with its own settings panel, so a page can be assembled without writing markup. The element list spans common marketing needs: accordions and tabs for FAQ sections, carousels and filterable galleries for portfolios, before-and-after image sliders for case studies, animated stat counters, team and member profile cards, info boxes and banners, and a 360-degree product viewer with 3D image rotation.
Several elements are aimed at conversion rather than layout. The Advanced Button ships with a set of hover effects and lets the icon sit on either side of the label, with separate padding controls for icon and text. A WhatsApp chat element connects visitors to a messaging line directly from the page, and it includes a time-availability setting so the chat prompt only appears during stated support hours, adjustable by timezone. A sticky floating menu element handles one-page navigation, which is useful for long single-scroll landing pages.
Typography control runs through the bundle rather than sitting in one place. Google Fonts options appear across the heading, button, text typer, info banner, creative link and lightbox elements, so a site can match the plugin’s output to its brand type without custom CSS. Where the built-in options end, the vendor states that the HTML and CSS can be customised, and the download includes the JavaScript, HTML, CSS and PHP source files plus layered PNG assets.
Two administrative features matter more than they first appear. Unused elements can be switched off from a dashboard panel, which trims the CSS and JavaScript the plugin loads on the front end — a real performance consideration, since a 32-element bundle left fully enabled adds weight to every page. There is also a one-click layout import that pulls a saved WPBakery layout into a page, which speeds up cloning a section across a site.
Where this plugin fits, and where it does not
The clearest fit is an existing WPBakery site that needs richer components without a rebuild. Agencies maintaining several client sites on WPBakery can standardise on one addon library and get consistent accordions, galleries and hover cards across projects. Freelancers building a single marketing site — a service business, a small ecommerce storefront running WooCommerce 6.x, or a product launch page — get the interactive pieces most themes leave out, at a price well below a premium theme licence.
It is also reasonable for anyone who wants the 360-degree product viewer or the before-and-after comparison slider specifically. Those are niche elements that few general-purpose addon packs include, and buying a focused $19 bundle is cheaper than commissioning custom work for one component.
The wrong choice is any site not already committed to WPBakery. The plugin extends that builder; it does not replace it, and it will not help a Gutenberg-first or Elementor-based site. The vendor marks the product as Gutenberg-optimised, but the elements themselves are WPBakery elements, so that flag should not be read as native block editor support. Anyone who has not yet chosen a builder should weigh the wider ecosystem first, because lock-in to WPBakery is the real cost here, not the $19.
Strengths and limitations in practice
Strengths
- Genuine breadth for the price. Thirty-two elements cover layout, media, social proof and conversion widgets in one purchase, which is unusually wide at this price point.
- Element-level switching. Disabling unused components keeps front-end assets lean, a control many addon packs omit.
- Detailed styling options. Google Fonts support, gradient backgrounds on active accordion tabs, border radius and colour controls on the comparison slider, and icon position settings on buttons mean most adjustments happen in the editor rather than in a child theme.
- Source files included. The unminified JavaScript, CSS and PHP let a developer extend or restyle an element when the settings panel runs out of options.
- Track record. Nearly 2,000 sales and a 4.61 average from 31 reviews indicate the plugin has been used in production and mostly holds up.
- Active maintenance history. The changelog shows repeated bug fixes and feature additions across several years, including workarounds for WordPress jQuery deprecation notices.
Limitations
- Stale update cycle. The most recent release recorded for this listing is January 2024, and the changelog entries supplied stop in mid-2021. Buyers should confirm current compatibility with their WordPress version before relying on it for a long-lived project.
- Builder lock-in. Every element depends on WPBakery. If a client later migrates to another builder, the content built with these elements does not travel with it.
- Overlapping elements. The changelog shows an older CSS3 Button retained alongside a newer Advanced Button, and several elements perform similar jobs. The element picker is not as tidy as a curated set.
- No page-level templates. The one-click import moves a WPBakery layout between pages, but the bundle does not ship a library of finished page designs the way template-kit products do.
- Support terms are vague. The vendor advertises round-the-clock support and lifetime updates, but the listing does not state response times or how long updates will continue.
How it compares with the wider addon category
Addons for WPBakery fall into three rough groups: large multi-purpose bundles with dozens of elements, focused single-purpose plugins, and full template kits that bundle elements with finished page designs. This product sits firmly in the first group. Against multi-purpose rivals, its differentiators are the niche media elements — the 360-degree viewer, the before-and-after slider, the WhatsApp chat with timezone-aware availability — and the ability to disable unused elements. Its weakness in that comparison is currency: a bundle last updated in early 2024 competes against addons that ship fixes more frequently.
Against single-purpose plugins, the bundle wins on value and loses on depth. A dedicated carousel or gallery plugin will usually offer more configuration than one element inside a 32-part pack. Against template kits, this product offers no ready-made page designs, so it suits someone who wants components to assemble their own layouts rather than a finished site to customise.
Compared with simply using WPBakery’s built-in elements plus a little custom CSS, the bundle saves development time on interactive pieces — counters, hover effects, comparison sliders — that are fiddly to build by hand. That time saving is the honest case for buying it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need WPBakery Page Builder to use Mega Addons?
Yes. Mega Addons is an extension pack, not a standalone builder, so WPBakery Page Builder must be installed and active for any of the 32 elements to appear or function. Buying it for a site without WPBakery would add files but no usable features.
Will Mega Addons slow down my WordPress site?
It can add weight if every element is left enabled, because each one loads its own styles and scripts. The plugin includes a dashboard switch for disabling unused elements, and turning off everything a site does not use is the most effective way to limit its front-end impact.
Does Mega Addons work with WooCommerce and the block editor?
It is listed as compatible with WooCommerce 6.x, so the elements can be placed on shop and product pages built with WPBakery. The listing also carries a Gutenberg-optimised flag, but the elements themselves are WPBakery components rather than native block editor blocks, so block-based editing is not the intended workflow.
Can the design of the addons be customised beyond the settings?
Yes, to a point. Most elements expose colour, typography, spacing and effect controls in the editor, and the download includes the JavaScript, HTML, CSS and PHP source files. A developer can therefore edit styles or markup directly, though changes to source files are overwritten when the plugin updates.
Verdict
Buy this if a site already runs WPBakery and needs a broad set of interactive elements — accordions, filterable galleries, counters, hover cards, a 360-degree viewer — at a low one-off price, and if the ability to switch off unused components appeals. It is a sensible purchase for freelancers and agencies standardising several WPBakery builds on one component library. Do not buy it if the site uses a different builder, if native block editing is the goal, or if a project demands a plugin with a demonstrably current release cadence — the 2024 update date and 2021 changelog tail make verification worthwhile before committing. The 4.61 rating from 31 reviews supports the product’s quality, but it does not settle the maintenance question.
