## Maelezo

This plugin adds new skin to Elementor Page Builder Posts and Posts Archive widget.

You can design a loop item just like a single template and it would be used as a
skin so you can be able to create a post grid the way you like.

All you have to do is to create a Custom Grid Template and place the Post Item Widget(
placeholder) in your template made with sections and columns, and why not other 
widgets.

For a quick tutorial see Frequently Asked Questions!

For more details and demo check our official site https://dudaster.com/

Note: This plugin is an addon of Elementor Page Builder (https://wordpress.org/plugins/
elementor/) and will only work with Elementor Page Builder installed.

Also check [Elementor Custom Skin Pro](https://dudaster.com/ecs-pro/)!

You can expand your freedom in more ways than you can imagine. Check it out at https://

I loved this plugin. However, it recently stopped working and they have not updated
it in months. Now elementor offers their own loop functionality so I will switch
to that.

We need the people behind this plugin to really become active in the community. 
Been a while since an update happened. It’s an amazing plugin but can we trust using
it on the long-term?
