Adding and customizing elements

Wix Harmony Editor: Generating an Element with AI


The AI Element Generator lets you create site elements that perfectly match your creative vision. Create anything from a glowing call-to-action button that bursts with confetti, to a dynamic event calendar or a weather widget with real-time updates.


Whether you have a one-of-a-kind idea or just need something not found in the Wix library, you can describe it in your own words and let AI bring it to life as a ready-to-use, editable custom element.

Important:


This feature is powered by AI and as such may produce unexpected or inaccurate results. Always review the AI's suggestions or changes before finalizing your site.



Generating an element


Start from a blank prompt or use the provided ideas for extra inspiration. Describe exactly what you want, then customize, preview, and save the element to use anywhere on your site.


To generate an element:


  1. Go to your editor.

  2. Click + Add at the top left of the editor.

  3. Select Elements.

  4. Click Generate Element at the top of the panel.

  5. Describe the element you want in the text box and click Generate Element.

    Tip: You can also explore the suggested ideas below. Hover over any example and click Edit prompt to copy and tweak the description as you like or click Generate to use it right away.

  6. Review the generated element and its description. If you want to make any changes, type instructions into the chat box and refine your idea as many times as you need.

  7. When you're happy with the output, click Save to add the new element to your AI Elements library.

Custom elements are saved per site, not per account.

  1. Go to your editor.

  2. Click + Add at the top left of the editor.

  3. Select Elements.

    on the left.

Editing an element


Custom AI elements are always editable, even after adding them to your site. You can update their look, behavior, or content any time.


To edit an element:


  1. Go to your editor.

  2. Click the relevant custom element in the editor.

  3. Choose what you want to do:


If design options are available in the action bar (e.g. color, font, border), edit the element directly in your editor. For example, adjust the color scheme of an element or the font size of a headline.

Tip: See below in the FAQ section why design options may not always be available.


Refine your element by including more instructions or details in the chat. For example, specify if you want to change the element's press effect, colors, or shape.

  1. Click Edit With AI on the action bar.

  2. Type your request in the chat box, such as "Change the button animation to a confetti burst when clicked" or "Move the poll question above the choices". The AI will update your element accordingly.

  3. Once you're satisfied with the result, click Update Changes.

Notes:


  • If you update a custom element from the chat, the changes apply to every instance of that component placed on your site. If you edit a custom element directly from the editor, those changes only apply to that instance on the page. Edits made in the editor always override chat-based changes.

  • Some elements within the component (e.g. objects or text boxes) can only be edited, moved, or redesigned through the chat.



Tips for describing your idea


When you describe your idea to the AI Element Generator, think of it as a creative conversation. The more details you share about how your custom element should look, feel, and function, the closer the result will be to your vision. Here’s how to get great results:


  • State your goal: What do you want this element to do? For example, “I want a price comparison table with highlight colors,” or “Build a poll that displays instant visual results.”

  • Describe the vibe: Should it be modern, playful, bold, elegant? Mention colors, animations, or any style inspiration.

  • Specify interactive features: Do you want users to click, sort, vote, expand, or see live updates? Tell the AI about any effects or interactive options.


There’s no one “right” way to write your prompt, but being specific helps. If you’re not sure where to begin, start with one of the suggested prompts and adjust it to fit your own vision. You can always edit or refine your idea after you see the first version.



FAQs

Yes, each AI-generated element is fully editable and can be customized at any time, including changing the text, colors, and animations.

The design options you see on the action bar depend on how the element was generated. This means that for some elements you'll have many design options available (e.g. changing text or colors) while for others you'll need to describe your changes through the AI chat (e.g. customize or move elements within the component, update the design, change the layout).

Tip: If you ever want to adjust how your element looks or works but don’t see the option in the editor’s panel, just use the chat to tell AI what you’d like changed.
