The Elementor plugin is one of the most popular drag-and-drop page builders in WordPress.
With Elementor, you can editing the site visually. As you make changes, you will simultaneously see exactly how what your design looks like.
Elementor designs are full-responsive and the plugin comes with over 40 powerful widgets.
We have a PublishPress customer who also uses the Gravity Forms plugin. They asked us if it was possible to create a user who can do nothing in WordPress, except for edit form entries in Gravity Forms.
Yes, this is possible, and this tutorial will show you how.
We develop the PublishPress Revisions plugin that allows you to submit, moderate, approve, and schedule revisions.
This plugin is built on top of the core revisions feature in WordPress.
Our Revisions Pro plugin is able to capture all of the data that has changed in your WordPress posts. However, that is not true of the normal revisions feature. People often tell us that their revisions are missing data.
Revisions is one the most useful features in WordPress. Every time you update your content, WordPress makes a change.
However, the idea may be great, the reality sometimes falls short. You may find that some content and fields do not have their data stored in your site's revisions.
When Gutenberg launched in 2018, it inspired a lot of discussion around the future of pagebuilder plugins.
At that time, many WordPress users were installing pagebuilders because they wanted to use blocks and a drag-and-drop approach to site-building. Gutenberg was clearly a response to user demand.
So, more than two years after Gutenberg arrived, how are pagebuilder plugins doing? Let's look at the data.
The Beaver Builder plugin is an excellent good page-builder for WordPress sites.
This week, one PublishPress customer asked us if it was possible to allow some WordPress users to edit a single page with Beaver Builder.
Our first thought was “yes, this is easy”. We've done it before many times using this approach, this approach and others.
Sometimes the simplest questions can lead you down the biggest rabbit holes.
A few weeks ago, I asked our team, “What is the best way to translate WordPress plugins?“
We need an answer because we've been growing quickly here at PublishPress. More users are asking if our plugins are available in different languages.
Some of the PublishPress plugins have existed for more than 10 years. For example, the PublishPress Revisions plugin was launched back in 2009!
In contrast, the PublishPress Authors plugin is very new. It only launched on WordPress.org in 2020.
PublishPress Authors works well with the Elementor plugin.
There are 5 options for showing Author profiles on your site. All of these will work with Elementor. For example, Option #1 will automatically show authors under your posts.
However, we have made sure to make sure PublishPress Authors works with inside the main Elementor layout builder.
Perhaps the easiest option for the Elementor layout builder is Option #2 in the link above.
First, edit a post or page and use the “Authors” box to choose your authors:
Second, use the “Authors” widget to place the author profiles into your content:
Some sites have issue with the page title on author pages when using Elementor Pro. Instead of displaying the name of current author in the title, it displays the name from the author of the first post listed on the page.
If you see this issue you can try customizing the child theme to display the correct title, or try disabling a filter for “the_author” on PublishPress Authors defining a constant:
define('PUBLISHPRESS_AUTHORS_DISABLE_FILTER_THE_AUTHOR', true);
