This week we have Mor Cohen on from Washington State in America and she's with us because she has a new course that she's launching called "The GeneratePress and Elementor Design Course". This course is designed for people like me, and when I say that it's unlikely that you need this course as much as I do because I have the design skills of a peanut! I can see what makes a design good, and I can appreciate a good design, but I cannot seem to be able to make a good design. That stuff is hard, or so I thought. Mor thinks otherwise!

Daren Morreale was having a problem trying to get some triangles in a layout to line up in Elementor. He decided that media queries were not the way to go and so he shows us what it is that he…

In this episode of the WP Builds podcast we get to talk to a very generous man! He's called Barna Buxbaum and he's the man behind the wildly popular template pack for the Elementor Page Builder called Katka. I'm always astonished by how people produce amazing things in the WordPress space and then just give them away for nothing! How cool is that? Barna's Katka is a huge library of over 170 (yes 170!) design elements that you simply download and drag and drop into your page designs. There's something for everyone, from 'Calls to Action' to 'Testimonials', 'Pricing Tables' to 'FAQs'.

The Elementor folk are thinking about the future and how the product is going to evolve over the coming year. The obvious question is how Elementor is going to align with Gutenberg which is now only a few months away. Are Gutenberg and Elementor in opposition or are they going to work in harmony together? What are the plans to introduce an Elementor Theme Builder, and will it be a new product, or an upgrade to the Pro version of the current product? Also, what’s going on in the longer term?

Well, this is going to be a nice treat for all of you folk that like a Page Builder, especially if that Page builder is called Elementor! Elementor has been growing in popularity during 2017 and has established itself as a solid platform with a reputation for being easy to use with a very generous free version. Ben joins us in Part 1 to tell us about how Elementor got to be where it is today. Who worked on it, how did they decide what to include and what to leave out. Well worth a listen.

Today we are joined by Doug Belchamber for a chat about the development of page builders. Naturally, we’re huge Beaver Builder fans so this episode is very much inspired by the Alpha release of "Beaver Themer".
