Widgets: Dynamic Content

With the Posts Widget you can display a list of any post types, including custom post types, in various layouts and ways. This practical widget can be used to display posts from a particular category or other taxonomy, recent posts, and more.

Classic Skin

The Classic skin is a fully customizable layer template that gets applied to the Posts widget, giving your posts a traditional design style.

Content

Layout

1. Skin: Select a pre-designed skin, either Classic, Cards, or Full Content
2. Columns: Set how many columns will be displayed, from 1 to 6
3. Posts Per Page: Set the exact amount of posts displayed
4. Image Position: Set the image position, relative to the content. Options include: Top / left / right / none. *See Note below for instructions to set image position on mobile.
5. Masonry: Slide on or off
6. Image Size: Set the size of the image, from thumbnail to full
7. Image Ratio: Set the exact ratio of the images
8. Image Width: Set the exact width of the images
9. Title: Choose to show or hide the title
10. Title HTML Tag: Select the HTML tag to use for the title, from H1 to H6, or div, span, or p
11. Excerpt: Choose to show or hide the excerpt
12. Excerpt Length: Choose the length of the excerpt, setting the exact amount of words displayed
13. Meta Data: Select the meta data to be displayed in the widget. A click on the field opens the list of options. The options include author, date, time and comments
14. Separator Between: Choose the separator you want to use between the meta data
15. Read More: Show or hide the Read More button
16. Read More Text: Customize the Read More text
17. Open in New Window: Choose Yes to open posts in a new tab.

Note: Adjust Image Width and Image Ratio in desktop and mobile view as shown below.

Note: In regards to the Posts Per Page option, please be aware that the Posts widget will load all sticky posts + the number of posts per page that you set in the Posts Per Page option. This is how WordPress fundamentally treats sticky posts. For example, if you set Posts Per Page = 1 but you have 5 sticky posts, then the total number of posts loaded on the front end would be 6 (1+5=6}.

Note: When Elementor displays a post, if it has no excerpt, Elementor automatically generates an excerpt from the post’s content. The Excerpt Length option allows you to control the length of this auto-generated excerpt. However, the excerpt length only applies to posts in which no manual excerpt has been entered. The length specified in the Elementor widget is ignored if a manually-generated excerpt exists for a post. 

Query

Source: Select the source from which the widget will display the content. Options include Posts, Pages, Custom post types if available, Manual Selection, Current Query, and Related. Depending upon which source you’ve chosen for the query, you’ll be given options which allow you to filter the results.

Include

1. Include By: Term or Author, then use Search and Select to choose which ones to use. Terms include all of the items in a taxonomy. The available taxonomies are: categories, tags, formats and custom taxonomies.
2. Date: Select from All, Past Day, Past Week, Past Month, Past Quarter, Past Year, Custom (Choose Before or After dates) 
3. Order By: Set the order in which the posts will be displayed. Options include: Date, Title, Menu Order, or Random
4. Order: DESC (descending) or ASC (ascending)
5. Ignore Sticky Posts: Yes or No (Sticky Posts option works only if zero terms have been selected)
6. Query ID: Give your Query a custom unique ID to allow server side filtering

Note: Choosing Related as the Source and Category as the Include By term will display posts related to the category assigned to the current post being displayed. So if the user is viewing a post in the Travel category, for example, the page will show Related posts which are also in the Travel category. If the post currently displayed has multiple categories assigned to it, the Related posts will pull posts from the FIRST category (alphabetically) assigned to the post. Important Exception: Keep in mind that if you set a Fallback for Related Posts, it will not take the query into account. Once you select a fallback as shown below, it will pull and display all the latest posts.

1. Exclude By: Current Post, Manual Selection, Term, or Author, then use Search and Select for Manual,Term, or Author choices
