    Hi, I’m a long time oceanwp user, I’m happy to see you’re back with a new project.
    I created a plugin for my custom post type with my custom taxonomy. I used the ‘single_template’ and ‘archive_template’ hooks to select my specific template when rendering my custom posts. Here the (maybe dumb) question: is it possible with your theme and elementor (free version) to style visually the templates? I know you can do it with elementor pro.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello @albazeus, glad to see you see and thanks for trying Olympus ??
    No questions are dumb, don’t worry ??
    For the archive page, it can be tricky but for the single page, yes you can use Elementor free version, if you don’t see the Edit with Elementor on your single CPT pages, try to go to Elementor > Settings and check if your CPT is on the Post Types options, if yes, check the box and tell me if it solves your issue?

    There’s that option there, but this is for creating new custom posts. I need to create a template with advanced custom fields, that will be used when the user create a custom post. I don’t know if it’s clear what I’m trying to say. For now I am editing archive-${my_cpt_slug}.php with a text editor but I am very slow.

    Hi, if you need to create advanced fields and you don’t really know how to do it, why you don’t try the Advanced Custom Fields plugin?
    It allows you to create any field you want and to easily place them. It could be a good solution.
