<p>We created Stream Manager with news editors in mind.  Admins wanted the latest headlines to show up on the front page automatically, but didn’t want to give up the flexibility of pinning a major story in a featured spot or pushing a smaller item down below the fold.</p>
<p>Stream Manager provides a simple interface for curating feeds of new posts from the WordPress Admin.  New posts show up automatically at the top of a stream, but content can easily be added, removed, or repositioned on the page via the stream editor.  Admins also have the option of pinning a post, which will lock it in its current position regardless of new content.</p>
<p>Stream Manager is designed to work with Twig templating plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/timber-library/" rel="ugc">Timber</a>, as detailed in the installation instructions.

GenerateBlocks

Great, really great product by an amazing team.

A small number of blocks (what is it 4?) that cover almost any need when it comes to layouts.

Light, straight forward with tons of options and zero bloat. Insanely good.

Combined with GeneratePress Premium theme by the same team ... powerfull solution for wotking with dynamic data too.

I use it in all my websites. It is super flexible and easy to use to build complex designs.


The best collection of blocks

A small collection of lightweight WordPress blocks that can accomplish nearly anything.
