How to build a news page using the pagebuilder tool

Building a news page using a page builder tool like Elementor, Beaver Builder, or Divi Builder is a relatively straightforward process. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

Prerequisites:

  1. You have a website built using a Content Management System (CMS) like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal.
  2. You have installed and activated a page builder plugin (e.g., Elementor, Beaver Builder, or Divi Builder) on your website.
  3. You have a basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and WordPress.

Step 1: Create a new page

  1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to the "Pages" section.
  2. Click the "Add New" button to create a new page.
  3. Give your page a title, such as "News" or "Latest News".

Step 2: Choose a template or start from scratch

  1. In the page builder plugin, you'll see a variety of templates or a blank canvas.
  2. Choose a template that resembles a news page or start from scratch by selecting the "Blank Page" option.
  3. If you choose a template, you can customize it to fit your needs.

Step 3: Add a header and navigation

  1. In the page builder, add a header element (e.g., a navigation menu) to your page.
  2. Customize the header by adding your website's logo, navigation links, and other elements.

Step 4: Add a news section

  1. Add a section element (e.g., a container) to your page to create a news section.
  2. Customize the section by adding a title, background color, and padding.
  3. Add a grid or row element to create a layout for your news articles.

Step 5: Add news articles

  1. Add a column element to your grid or row to create a column for each news article.
  2. Customize the column by adding a title, text, and other elements (e.g., images, videos).
  3. Repeat this process for each news article you want to display.

Step 6: Add pagination

  1. Add a pagination element (e.g., a navigation menu) to your page to allow users to navigate between news articles.
  2. Customize the pagination by adding links to previous and next articles.

Step 7: Add a footer

  1. Add a footer element (e.g., a container) to your page to create a footer section.
  2. Customize the footer by adding your website's copyright information, social media links, and other elements.

Step 8: Customize and style
