Features

Page Templates

Full Width
Displays the page at full width, hiding the sidebar.

Newsletter Archive
Adds the option to upload newsletters. An accordion list of the newsletter list and a latest edition download button can be shown using shortcodes.

Question + Answer
Adds the option to create question and answer entries displayed in an accordion format on the frontend.

Sitemap
Displays a list of all the published pages, posts, events and podcasts on your site. Events and podcasts are shown if the appropriate plugins are installed.

Style Formats

Classic Editor
Style formats are available in the classic content editor for posts and pages with the following options:

  • Solid button
  • Outlined button
  • Numbered grid list

Block Editor (WordPress 5.0)
The new WordPress 5.0 block editor doesn’t support style formats, but you can achieve the same style/format with these blocks:

  • Button: add a button block
  • Numbered grid list: add an ordered list block and in the block settings, enter the class “grid” under Advanced > Additional CSS Class

Newsletter list

Use the following shortcode to display the list of newsletters on any page using the “Newsletter Archive” template:

[newsletter_archive]

Latest newsletter button

Use the following shortcode to create a button to download the latest newsletter:

[latest_newsletter_button]

Use the “text” attribute to add text before the button:

[latest_newsletter_button text="Download the latest edition:"]

Same page linking

To create a link on the same page, use the following shortcode to create the target in the appropriate place, typically before the section or headline you want to link to:

[anchor_target id="anchor-name"]

Then create a link for the target using the shortcode’s id as the href value with a pound sign. The link should look like the following:

<a href="#anchor-name">Link text</a>

Changelog

BUG NOTE: custom colors set in the Customizer revert to default colors on theme updates. As a workaround, open the Customizer and resave the custom colors. This has been fixed in version 1.29 so the custom colors shouldn’t revert on the next update.
