AnWP Post Grid and Post Carousel Slider for Elementor Premium is an add-on for AnWP Post Grid. The base plugin and Elementor must also be installed and active. Premium adds eight post widgets and five capabilities, while the base plugin’s eight widgets remain available. Premium widgets use the same post selection options as the base widgets and follow Elementor breakpoints.

Eight additional post layouts

• Hex Grid: Arrange posts in interlocking tiles with responsive columns, load more, pagination, and a header category filter.
• News Ticker: Show headlines as a continuous marquee or slide one post at a time sideways or upward.
• Card Slider: Display post cards in a carousel with hover effects and autoplay.
• Hero Slider: Present posts in a full-width slider with a Ken Burns effect and post navigation.
• Mosaic Slider: Mix tall cards with stacked pairs in a sliding mosaic with three styles.
• Scale Grid: Enlarge the post under the pointer and show its excerpt while other posts remain grayscale.
• Simple Ratio Grid: Set cards to a chosen picture aspect ratio, with load more and pagination.
• Parallax Grid: Use cards with 3D tilt that follows the pointer, plus a moving highlight and shadow.

Five added functions

• Header Category Filter: Add category tabs above Simple Grid, Light Grid, Classic Grid, Classic Blog, Hex Grid, or Simple Ratio Grid. Visitors can switch categories without a page reload; tabs that do not fit appear in a “more” menu.
• Advanced Pagination: Add page numbers, previous and next buttons, ellipses, and custom labels to the four base grid widgets and Hex Grid.
• Custom Taxonomy: Filter any of the 16 widgets by terms from a custom taxonomy and show those terms in place of the category label.
• Taxonomy Redirects: Redirect a category or tag archive to a chosen page with a 301 redirect.
• Widget Blocks: Design a block in Elementor and place it in a sidebar or footer widget area.

Post selection and responsive options

Premium widgets share the base plugin’s post selection options, including categories, tags, authors, and related posts. Their layout settings follow Elementor breakpoints, including custom widths and extra device breakpoints such as Laptop and Tablet Extra. The base widgets include Simple Grid, Light Grid, Classic Grid, Classic Blog, Hero Block, Simple Slider, Classic Slider, and Flex Slider.

Requirements and setup

The plugin requires WordPress 5.3 or newer, PHP 7.4 or newer, and Elementor 3.5.0 or newer. Install and activate Elementor and AnWP Post Grid, then install and activate Premium alongside the base plugin. In the Elementor editor, search for “anwp” and add a widget to the page.
