Step 1: Add a new Elementor section
Select the three column Elementor layout
Add two elements to the Elementor section
Add two Elementor elements to the left and right most columns of the section. Here we are adding image elements to the columns. The empty column in the middle will serve for the purpose of a divider later on.
Step 2: Adjust the width of the Elementor columns
Adjust the width of the middle column
Click on the Edit Column icon of the middle column.
Change the Column Width under the Layout tab to 4%. This will make the middle column narrower for the divider to fit in.
Change Vertical-align attribute of the middle column
Change the Vertical align attribute to "Bottom".
Adjust the width of the right and left Elementor columns
Go to the edit column toolbox for the right and left columns in the section.
Step 3: Add Elementor divider element
Drag and drop the Elementor divider element in the center column of the section.

Go to the Edit Divider tool box again and open the Content tab.
- Change the unit of width to PX.
- Adjust the width scrollbar to adjust the height of the divider.

You can also add a text or icon element in between the divider.

So cool, thanks !
Glad you enjoyed this!
That’s clever. Thank you.
Thanks!
it doesnt work
Share me your page URL I will have a look why that might be
Updated with working code now. An Elementor update made this break.
This code no longer works because the editor limits the pixel height.
I think you haven't followed the tutorial properly Adam! You would have noticed we aren't using the 'height' setting, to set the height!
Didn't seem to work for me either. The height of the divider container seems to be fixed. For a simple solid line vertical divider, setting the 'width' to 1px and manually entering a number into 'weight' in the Styles Tab did the trick for me.
Travis Kelekolio You are right, the code didn't work anymore. My apologies to both of you. Looks like an Elementor update changed a few things...
I updated my code in the article to fix this. Now, it works!
Just needed to add this:
selector .elementor-divider {
display: block;
}
Custom CSS is not even possible on Elementor Free opposed to what is said in the article. Please do not mislead people.
It is possible, and here is how : https://element.how/elementor-free-custom-css/

Hey Marius!
Try with this CSS:
@media (max-width:767px){
