Squircle

Description

Squircle is a lightweight extension for Elementor that adds CSS corner-shape support to your designs — including squircle, bevel, scoop, and notch shapes.

Instead of writing custom CSS, Squircle seamlessly integrates with Elementor’s existing Border controls. Simply select a corner shape, use Elementor’s native Border Radius control, and immediately see the effect applied in both the editor and the frontend.

Squircle leverages the modern CSS corner-shape property to create true superellipse corners, beveled edges, scooped curves, and notched cuts — ensuring optimal performance with zero frontend JavaScript dependencies.

Features

  • Multiple Corner Shapes: Choose from Squircle, Bevel, Scoop, and Notch — all native CSS, no SVG hacks.
  • Seamless Integration: Native-looking controls injected directly into Elementor’s Style > Border section.
  • Progressive Enhancement: Fully compatible with modern Chromium browsers (Chrome, Edge 139+). Gracefully falls back to standard border-radius in unsupported browsers.
  • Zero Bloat: No external CSS files, no JavaScript libraries, and no database tables. Everything is handled via Elementor’s core architecture.
  • Responsive Design: Inherits Elementor’s responsive border-radius settings automatically.
  • Universal Support: Works natively with Containers, Images, Buttons, and most third-party Elementor widgets that use standard border controls.

FAQ

Does this require Elementor Pro?

No, Squircle works entirely with the free version of Elementor. It is also fully compatible with Elementor Pro if you have it installed.

Does this work on all browsers?

Squircle uses the modern CSS property corner-shape. Currently, this is supported in Chromium-based browsers (such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge versions 139+).

What happens in unsupported browsers like Safari or Firefox?

Squircle embraces progressive enhancement. In browsers that do not yet support corner-shape, the element will gracefully fall back to the standard border-radius defined by your Elementor settings. The layout remains fully usable and attractive in all scenarios.

Will this slow down my site?

Absolutely not. Squircle does not enqueue any external stylesheets, JavaScript libraries, or complex SVG masks. It simply injects a single native CSS property into Elementor’s existing stylesheet generation pipeline.
