Is this supposed to be in the theme function.php file ?

Yes, you can put that in your functions.php file. I haven't updated this in a while, so be on the look out for issues. Or, you can download a zip of this plugin and install like a normal plugin. I think it is more recently updated.
I did installed the plugin but the elementor was not working. Classic
editor is still the default editor

Likewise, I tried the plugin and script and neither worked for me. The default editor remained the same.
The plugin worked like a charm. I was a little lazy today so I just downloaded the zip, uploaded to Wordpress by dashboard and activated it after installation. Worked superb. Thanks dude!
Is it still working?
I need something to make new pages created by "WP ALL IMPORT" to created with Elementor active,
the import is working but I need to active Elementor for each page manually
