As someone new to WordPress, you may not know how to display a post. Luckily, there are ways of accomplishing this goal.
One solution would be to use a plugin with more features and options; however, this may add more bloat to your website and may not work well with other themes and plugins.
Custom post types
Custom post types are an effective way to enhance and organize WordPress content, as they draw visitors in quickly. Plus, they provide extra functionalities such as custom fields and taxonomies; creating them using CPT UI or ACF plugins makes the task easy!
ACF also features many useful features, including field groups, front-end filters and custom metaboxes. Furthermore, you can display your custom post type’s name and description directly in its page’s URL slug/title combinations.
ACF plugins offer another feature to save both time and money: creating custom templates for custom post types that you define yourself. These can then be used for archive pages, single pages or any other section of your website – with edits being easily made using Elementor – enabling you to design sites to meet client specifications without the hassles and difficulties associated with coding a website yourself. This reduces coding reliance and speeds up processes allowing faster site deployment for you and your clients alike!
Featured images
A featured image is an eye-catching way to represent the content, mood or theme of a post or page. When used properly, they can grab visitors’ attention, unify the look of your website, improve SEO rankings and add value for visitors; but unoptimized featured images may cause major headaches!
Featured images appear in the widget area of your WordPress website and must be properly sized in order to avoid cropping or blurring, while providing a concise description for SEO purposes.
Size requirements for featured images depend on your theme layout. For blog modules with full-width layouts, the image should at least fill one column width; otherwise please consult with documentation for your theme to determine specific dimensions.
Posts carousel
Post carousels provide you with a way to showcase your posts as a slideshow with images, titles, and excerpts appearing seamlessly as the carousels scroll forward. You can select how many posts to show, whether or not to display the featured image, as well as order (by ID, Menu Item Number, Author’s Last Name or Date or Random Order).
Under the General tab of your Posts Carousel widget, you can adjust its movement direction, pause on hover, infinite loop length and adaptive height settings. Furthermore, title display can be enabled/disabled as well as limited/full content display options – while adding a Read More button per post for each post in your carousel.

In addition, you can change their Padding, Image Padding Border Type Radius Box Shadow Hover Animation Settings HT Mega Plugin Post Carousel is an amazing Elementor Addon which enables you to create stunning post carousels without writing a single line of code!
Forms
Forms are an indispensable feature of every website, whether they be contact forms, feedback forms, lead generation tools or booking management systems.

Furthermore, multi-step forms may present additional integration challenges.
