2. Dynamic Elements

The power of posts lies in their dynamism, and this is achieved by using dynamic elements. These elements bring a level of versatility and customization that is otherwise impossible to attain, and mastering them can truly elevate your website design.

When designing a post, one can add a new, empty block to the top. To explain how dynamic elements work, consider the image element as an example. Upon selecting the image settings, you would typically find a silver icon where you'd usually upload the image. Interestingly, this icon also appears in video elements, countdowns, counters, ratings, and a few other features. It indicates a dynamic element that you can use not just in blogging but in assets too.

Once you select it, you can use it to add the featured image for the post, choosing between custom or original images. The custom option allows access to functions like filters, mask, and color overlays. You can apply hover effects, link it, and have the usual settings for styling, animation effects, and even scroll effects. It's this versatility that makes dynamic elements incredibly powerful.

Similar to image elements, dynamic elements can also be applied to text, exponentially increasing its utility. Simply bring in the text element, go to the typography settings and select the silver icon. From here, options such as custom text, post title, and more are at your disposal, and you can style them like you would do normally.

To give it a personalized touch, you can change the color, add another text element, or even include an excerpt under the title. You can adjust the text height, change the color, and do more to make it visually appealing.

Another exciting aspect of dynamic elements is that they can pull the date on which a post was published. All these dynamic content pieces are pulled directly from the post, making the process seamless.

In essence, with dynamic elements, you can build a global block serving as a template for every post, making your content unique, engaging, and visually appealing. Dynamic elements offer a layer of customization that can truly make your posts stand out and ensure a more personalized and effective web design.
