Uncanny Page Builder fits into the site you already have. For each page, you choose whether the page keeps your theme’s header and footer or Page Builder builds the entire page, and you can change your mind later.
The two layout modes
When you first open a page in Page Builder, it asks: How should this page fit into your website?
- Build the entire page with Uncanny Page Builder (recommended): Uncanny Agent creates the complete page, including the header and footer. Choose this for landing pages, campaign pages, or any page that should have its own design.
- Use my theme header and footer: your theme keeps providing the header and footer while Uncanny Agent builds the page content in between. Because your theme controls some styles, the final page may look slightly different from the builder preview.

Full-page mode: pick your header and footer
If you choose full-page mode and your site already has a saved header and footer in Page Builder, the next question is Set up your page header and footer:
- Use the saved default header and default footer: the page uses the shared header and footer you’ve already created, which are managed in one place and used across pages.
- Stand-alone page. No header and footer. The page starts without them, which suits focused landing pages. You can add them later.
Shared headers and footers are managed as reusable parts. See Reusable sections, headers, and footers.
Adopt Page Builder at your own pace
These choices are per page, so you can redesign a single landing page today and leave the rest of your site as it is. To change a page’s layout later, click the Layout icon in the Page Builder toolbar and choose again.
Page Builder works alongside your theme and plugins. Once it takes over a page, it hides other page builders’ edit links for that page, such as Elementor’s, so two editors never work on the same content.
