NEW Features in BoldGrid’s Post and Page Builder Version 1.8

You may have noticed that there was an update available for Post and Page Builder. This update not only fixes a few bugs, but brings a whole new set of exciting updates to make editing your website even easier. Today, we’ll go over each of the new features released in this new update, so let’s jump right into it.

Backgrounds to Columns and Rows

Now with Post and Page Builder, you can add backgrounds to columns and rows. This brings a whole new way to add images and colors behind your text and images. You can now be be more creative on your layouts and styles and we can’t wait to see the beautiful websites that you create with this new feature.

Components and Widgets

We heard the request for the ability to add widgets and components to blocks. We’ve now built this directly into the Post and Page builder. It’s super simple to add ‘Recent Posts’, ‘RSS ‘, ‘Blockquotes’, Video, and all of the other native widgets and components.

Design and Style of Text

Formatting text can be hard, but when you want to add style and design to your text, it’s frustrating to have to learn HTML or CSS styling to apply different styles. We set out to solve this issue and completely rethought the way you design and style your text. We gave you complete control, making Post and Page builder stand above other editors for this feature alone.

Layout

Time is the most valuable resource anyone has. We believe that you shouldn’t have to spend time dragging around blocks and adding new columns to get a specific look for your website. We added a new layout component where you can just simply click the layout you’re looking for and you’re all set to start adding your images and text! It’s seriously that easy!

Connect Key

We’ve made it even easier to manage and add your connect key by adding a new menu option in the WordPress Settings tab. Go to Settings and click the “BoldGrid Connect” tab and you’re on your way to adding the premium features of BoldGrid.
