Does Tainacan allow desining using elementor in wordpress? Kindly assist quickly because I have created my collectsions but I am stuck. Reply in English
Hi @Benadict_Isiaho, welcome to our forum!
We’ve never had enough team to develop a proper integration for third party builders like Elementor. They have their own widgets system, API, etc and providing support for that is a bit off our reach right now, since we must at least provide the basic Gutenberg blocks.
If your work has just started I would recommend giving a shot to Blocksy, Blocksy companion, our support plugin and one or two Gutenberg blocks, that can really do plenty and multiple of designs with good performance.
That said, if Elementor is a requirement for your project you can still use it and display Tainacan content.
- Their Advanced Loop/Posts list widget accepts the “post type” field, which allows you to select between your collection items;
- Their shortocode block allows you to insert content from one of our shortcodes. They are not well documented, I’ll admit, but usually they offer most of the settings that are available in our Gutenberg blocks. If you go that way let me know, I can give you some examples of usage.
- Even with Elementor you can still create some pages and choose to use Gutenberg on them. I’ve heard that you can even create patterns using the Gutenberg editor and insert them as widgets in a Elementor page, but that would require some testing…
