What it does
Elementor handles page design well, but showing blog posts in varied, flexible layouts usually takes more than the default tools offer. This plugin fills that gap with widgets made for content display. You can build post archives and listings with Smart Posts List and Smart Posts Tiles, pick from nine tile layouts, and turn tiles into a slider. A Text Ticker scrolls headlines or updates, and a Video Playlist widget collects YouTube or Vimeo videos in one place. It requires Elementor to run.
Control over which posts appear comes from custom WP Query support, including meta queries, date queries and taxonomy filters. The widgets also work with custom post types, so the same tools suit portfolios, directories or other custom content as well as standard posts. Styling is handled through Elementor's own style controls. Smaller touches help too: estimated reading time, publication dates, linking a list title to a custom URL, opening post links in a new tab, and transcriptions for individual videos in a playlist.
Best for
- Blogs and personal publishing sites built with Elementor
- News portals that need tickers and post grids
- Content sites using custom post types or video
Features
Two widgets for building post archives and listings, each with multiple layout options, plus estimated reading time shown for each post.
Choose from nine tile styles to present posts, and switch static tiles into a slider when you want the content to move.
Filter which posts appear using meta queries, date queries and taxonomy filters, giving you precise control over each widget's content.
Display any custom post type in the widgets, which makes the plugin useful for sites whose content goes beyond regular blog posts.
Scroll latest news or updates in a ticker, and pull third-party content into it through RSS feeds for a running news line.
Build playlists from YouTube or Vimeo videos, show publication dates, and add transcriptions for individual videos in the list.
Adjust the look of every widget with Elementor's standard style settings so the layouts match the rest of your site design.

Questions about JetBlog
Does JetBlog work without Elementor?
No. JetBlog is built as a set of Elementor widgets and requires the Elementor plugin. All of its layouts and style settings are managed inside the Elementor editor.
Can I show content other than regular blog posts?
Yes. The widgets are compatible with custom post types, and custom WP Query support lets you filter by meta, date and taxonomy, so you can display products, portfolio items or any other custom content you have registered.
Which video sources does the Video Playlist widget support?
The widget builds playlists from YouTube or Vimeo videos. It can show the publication date for each video and supports adding a transcription to individual videos in the playlist.
Can the ticker display news from other websites?
Yes. The Text Ticker widget can fetch third-party content through RSS feeds, so you can scroll headlines from outside sources alongside or instead of your own posts.

The code of JetBlog is licensed under the GPL, so anyone may use, change and share it. GPL Feast is a paid service: a plan or a single purchase gives you the download and automatic updates. The developer's own support, licence key and online services are not included.
