Have you seen Elementor?
Our flagship product, Layers has been acquired by the team at Elementor.
With a powerful, fast page builder, Elementor is the best way to get your site online with as little effort as possible.
The Services post type is great for showcasing any single structure of related content. Services are displayed using the Services page template, which is a full-width template that lists each service using the layout selected in the page editor. Single services are displayed with a unique sidebar that provides a table of contents to all other services posts in the same category. View your theme’s demo for an example of this layout.
Service excerpts can also be displayed on your Home Page or any Widgetized Page by using the Content Widget.
Services may be displayed on the Widget-Driven Home Layout or any Widgetized page using the Content Widget. This displays posts in a column layout. Details on widget setup and options are outlined in the Configure Your Widgets article. Add Services
