=== Press Elements - Widgets for Elementor === Contributors: ramiy Tags: elementor, press elements, elements, widgets, page builder Requires at least: 4.7 Tested up to: 4.7 Stable tag: 1.2.2 License: GPLv3 License URI: https://opensource.org/licenses/GPL-3.0 An easy-to-use widgets that help you display and design your content using Elementor page builder. == Description == **Press Elements** allows you to style a single pages using the built-in WordPress post components. = WordPress Elements = When you create a new post (or a page) on WordPress, you choose a title, write an excerpt, select a publish date, add an author, choose featured image, select several taxonomies and maybe you define some custom fields. In the Elementor page builder you can't display and style those components. You need to repeat the process and manually add a title, write the excerpt and add images. That's where Press Elements comes in handy. The plugin adds smart widgets that let you display those post components. Now you can drag a "Post Title" widget and style it your way. The widget will automatically insert the title used as the post title. Same applies for all the other post components. = Dynamic Content = Regular Elementor widgets save the data as hard-coded content. To change something you need to open the page builder and manually change the element inside the builder. Updating post titles, excerpts, authors and other WordPress Element won't affect the builder. Press Elements uses dynamic content architecture. It doesn't save the title and other element as hard-coded content. It generates them on-the-fly. Just like the WordPress theme system. When you change post titles and other post elements from your WordPress dashboard (outside of Elementor), they will be automatically updated in the content area and in the page builder. For example, you can bulk edit several posts from your sites dashboard to change the author, post that use "Post Author" widget will be automatically updates with the new data. = Template Design = When using page builders, you need to create all the page element for each page over and over again. Currently you can't design single page templates and apply the design on the post. When you use the template system you need to manually change titles and images for each post/page. With Press Elements you can create custom designs with post elements and save them as template. When you apply the template on other posts, it will inherite the data from the new post. No more manual updates! You don't need to hire developers to generate custom page templates - with Press Elements you can do it using a simple drag & drop interface! Now you can design different templates for different blog posts, pages and other Post Types. When creating new posts, load your predefined templates from your template library. Developers use theme-functions to generate themes. With Press Elements you can use Elementor widgets to display and design your post elements!
