    UPDATE:

    Further to the author answer to my original review, I change my review to 3 stars, and will leave a few remarks that if will be implemented, I’ll consider changing to 5 stars.

    Dear @solwininfotech, I beleive I understand why I was so dissapointed. You see, if I choose a template from your sets of templates, I’d expect it to be immediately designed as shown in the template’s thumbnail, giving me the possibilty to change the initial settings, but I really expected to see my blog designed as the templates is showing. And it wasn’t at all.

    Personally, I used the timeline template and was dissapointed to see how it shows on my site. So after your comment, I’ve installed the plugin under a new clean WP installation just to see it showing the same as in my first attempt. So I went through the guide you’ve send me to but as it was too long, I went back to investigate my site with Chrome’s dev tools. Then I’ve figured out that as my background is white, I might not see the template. Changing Blog Posts Template Color under Standard Settings did the trick!

    Then I chose another template and the same issue all over. I have to go and set all settings to look as the template thumbnail shows.

    PLEASE!!! When a user chooses a template, make the setting to automatically change, or at least have a button somewhere to implement the thumbnail’s colors. This would have saved me a lot of time.

    Actually, I’m so happy with the timeline template, that I might consider purchasing the PRO version. But PLEASE, you have to make those changes.

    +++ Original review with 1 star only +++
    I’m writing this with hard feelings. I’m sure the author of this plugin invested his time and resources to make it work, but unfortunately I couldn’t make it work for me.

    I was using the free version to check it out. Any (free) template I was trying resolved in a posts page with no design at all. As if the plugin’s CSS is not loading.

    So I’ve tried to change a theme. And another. And another. same result for all.
    So I’ve tried to deactivate some plugins I thought might conflict with it (though in the support section the author says there are no conflicts with other plugins/themes). No change in the result.
    So… I thought maybe it’s be

    I have no cache installed (it’s my dev environment). All plugins and themese are updated. Also running WP 4.9, which is the current last version of WordPress.

    Sorry, but I can’t recommend this plugin. I’ll go looking for another one.

    Dear @wpkiller,

    We noted your suggestion with blog designer plugin. That feature we already providing in our PRO version plugin, but looking like that same feature highly required in our free version plugin as well.

    Please check this screenshot – https://prnt.sc/he3j0l and you will get an idea about new option we have added with the version 1.8.4.1.

    Kindly, please check this new option and enjoy your newly design blog page.

    Thanks

    That’s the way to go!
    But… unfortunately, it does not work for me. Back to square one with only text and no css whatsoever.
