<p>This plugin is for developers who need easy to edit the complex layouts and insert different post tile blocks inside the layout,<br />
sidebars or page builders. By default, it has 3 pre-defined layouts; you can rewrite them in your theme or register custom layouts.<br />
Unfortunately the pre-defined layouts have no styles inside. (Because they will be overwritten in the theme 100% anyway).</p>
<h4>Template files</h4>
<p>To overwrite the pre-defined templates, you should create a folder with the name <code>“just-post-preview”</code> in the root<br />
of your theme and copy required templates from the <code>/wp-content/plugins/just-post-preview/layous/</code> folder.</p>
<p>File names format: <code>jpp_layout_{layout key}.php</code></p>
<p>You can find PHP comments on the top of the demo templates. They help your IDE to show you autocomplete boxes for available variables.</p>
<h4>Adding custom layout</h4>
<p>To add a custom layout, you need to add a new filter hook in your theme functions.php file:</p>
<pre><code>add_filter('jpp_post_preview_layouts', 'my_post_preview_layouts');
function my_post_preview_layouts($layouts){
    $layouts['my_layout_key'] = 'My custom layout';
    return $layouts;
}
</code></pre>
<p>After that hook you will need to create a template file in the <code>/path/to/theme/just-post-preview</code> folder with the name <code>jpp_layout_my_layout_key.php</code>.</p>
<h4>That’s all!</h4>
