About This Component
Author Forward Single Post Soft Gray 080, indexed as theme-single-author-forward-080, places 6 elements deliberately at single-column spacing. Nothing in theme-single-author-forward-080 is hardcoded: the author-box and post-navigation widgets follow Global Styles. theme-single-author-forward-080 asks just for an Elementor Pro license.
How to use
- 1.Download the template file. On the component page, click Download JSON. You get a single .json file exported in the correct theme template format.
- 2.Import it into Elementor. In WP Admin go to Templates, then Saved Templates, and click Import Templates. Choose the downloaded .json file. Because the file carries the right template type, Elementor files it under the matching Theme Builder section automatically.
- 3.Preview against a real post. While editing the template, open Settings (bottom-left cog), then Preview Settings, and pick one of your posts. The dynamic widgets render that post's real title, image, and content so you can fine-tune spacing.
- 4.Set the display condition. Open Templates, then Theme Builder, find the imported template and click Add Condition. Choose Include, then Singular, then Posts to apply it to every blog post (or narrow it to a category). Conditions never travel inside the JSON file; setting them is always your final step.
