Is the possible to use the TagDiv Composer to create posts? Not the template, sidebar and structure of the post, but editing the actual content that goes into the body of the post?
So we basically want to find out if posts could have same editing functionalities as pages, with the tagdiv composer. If not, then what are the limitations? and what should be the standard way of editing a post using the cloud templates (and as well as tagdiv composer)?
Hello !
Unfortunately tagDiv Composer cannot be used on editing actual posts. You can edit Cloud templates and pages. You can import a post template and edit it to fit your tastes then apply it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/design-post-pages-using-cloud-library-templates/
Thank you !
Hi Vlad,
Thanks for the information. Using the cloud templates, which editor would you recommend to use for our posts? We are currently using WPBakery Page Builder.
Thanks!
Hello !
Even tough WP bakery is a tested plugin I personally wouldn’t recommend using it. Since tagDiv Composer was created as our own page builder the developers are working on developing this plugin.
You can use wp bakery on a page / post where there are NO tagDiv composer elements.
Thank you for your understanding !
Hi Vlad,
Thank you for explaining, but we need more clarification.
This question is specifically related to “posts” and not “pages”, because we are already using the TagDiv composer for the pages. So for the posts, I would second your recommendation, but then how do we actually use the tagdiv composer to edit the posts? I mean, how do we use the tagdiv composer to add in the content that goes into the body of the post?
Please clarify. Thanks!
Additional Question: Do we have to go into Edit Template in order to edit the content that goes into the body of the post (for cloud templates), by adding in new elements there? And then adding our content into those elements?
If yes, then when starting out to edit a template, it shows a “single post content” element added to it by default, but that element is not editable. So does that mean that we should simply delete that element and add in ours?
Hello !
Unfortunately you cannot edit the post CONTENT with tagDiv Composer. You can only edit the layout in which the post is displayed. You can add elements in the template but they won’t be able to fit INTO your content.
I hope this was helpful !
Thank you !
Thank you for clarifying, Vlad. So the post content should be edited using either the Gutenberg Editor or the WP Bakery Editor right? Sorry this is quite confusing. What I understand now is that the content can not be inserted through the “edit template” option.
Also, how exactly does adding elements to the template changes the post? For example if I add the element “column content” to a “single post template”, where should we add in the content for that column element? Or do you mean that adding the elements will not affect the design at all?
Hello !
By editing the template you will be able to change the looks of your POST Template. This will not affect your Post Content. The template is fully editable using the tagDiv Composer, only thing you can affect is the Post Content position, like moving it above one element or something similar: https://www.screencast.com/t/Pk2mtfND ;
Even the post content is an element so you can arrange them the way you want: https://www.screencast.com/t/n5krspyqJ
I hope this was more clear.
Thank you !
Hi Vlad,
Thank you for explaining, but we haven’t got an answer to our main question, maybe because I am unable to explain clearly. How to edit the post content? Should we use the Gutenberg or WP Bakery Editor to edit the content of the post (a post that is based on a cloud template)?
Or should we add the element “post content” inside the template and add in our content there?
We need to know the standard way so that we can have better optimization.
Thanks!
Hello !
Sorry for missunderstanding !
Posts can be edited by going into Posts – Edit post as you can see it here: https://www.screencast.com/t/nfSJwm8m You can use Gutenberg / Classic Editor. I personally wouldn’t recommend using wp bakery but you can do it.
Thank you !
I have created cloud post template and edited it ok as I desired using TagDiv Composer. I then created a new post and selected my cloud template. Problem is that any content added to that new post using the Gutenberg editor does not show up in the post, no matter what I add I only see the header (also an edited cloud template used in the cloud post template) and the footer, nothing else! Why is this happening?
