What’s new in Timeline for Elementor 1.0
Version 1.0 · May 2, 2023

What it does
Some content makes more sense in order: a company history, a project's milestones, a news story as it unfolds, or a personal journey. A plain blog list doesn't show that flow very well. This plugin turns your posts into a vertical timeline so visitors can follow events from one point to the next. Because it works as an Elementor widget, you build the timeline the same way you build the rest of your pages, by dragging it into place and adjusting its settings.
The widget can draw from regular posts or from custom post types, so it fits sites that store events, projects or case studies separately from the blog. Sticky posts stay highlighted within the timeline, and you can place more than one timeline on the same page. You pick from two layouts, set colors to match your branding and add animation effects. Timelines are responsive and retina ready, and the plugin includes .po/.mo files for translation. Elementor is required.
Best for
- Businesses presenting company history or project milestones
- Bloggers and journalists telling stories in chronological order
- Historians and educators organizing events by date
