LOVE this! This is going to be a game changer for client hand-offs to make it easier for them to add new items without having to find something to duplicate or getting into saved templates! Great feature addition!
Concise and clear tutorial for the “how to”. It would be great to also see a quick explanation of the “why”, the purpose of the new feature. Jet Engine Components is the answer to what question?
Have I missed something? - I don't see the point of it, in Elementor you can use global widgets and/or saved templates which is much faster to use and edit than this, I use JetEngine all the time so I'll try it out and see... Love your tutorials though..!
With Elementor templates you can't separate layout from content though (only if you make a custom post type for every template). So with this you can make a template that has different content on different parts of the website and if you want to change the layout later you can do that from a central place.
Nice! As Bricks probably releases its components soon (Thomas gave a sneak peak a while back), this will likely have a temporary shelf life in the Bricks ecosystem. Having this in Gutenberg FSE themes seems very intriguing, in GeneratePress or vanilla Gutenberg.
I agree - in the Bricks ecosystem, this will likely be limited when the native components are released. For other tools not supporting them (like Elementor), it will add some much needed additional functionality. :)
Nice start anyway but hopefully Bricks will release native components in 2.0 so this will have limited appeal I think. For other builders like Elementor and possibly Gutenturd(?) this will be an absolute game changer.
THNX Paul! Love to "do some pretty cool things". Could you think about making a tutorial addressing the usercases for listings and components? And I wound ask the question, for now :) Thnks again for a great explanation
Not the same, as it's not controlled on a global level. You can create a template and add it with the template widget to embed it, or add a copy of the instance to change its content and styles
Excellent overview mate... I see a lot of potential with components when it matures. They probably could/should have added more features before going live.
So basically, they are doing much like Elementor did or does (I haven't touched Elementor in years), by way of putting out half-baked functionality and sitting back collecting feedback while their paying customers perform free beta testing for them? Elementor was notorious for this! Towards the end of this video (in the Bricks version) there is so much 'not' available and hacking, you HAVE to ask yourself why would they even make this available at this stage or even say it's compatible with Bricks! I'll pass on this full stop.. Advanced Themer's Nested Components is far superior and no need for hacking or gotchas in it's functionality.
I agree that there are quite a few bugs and limitations. However, I'm not sure I'd compare AT's nested components with JetEngine's Components. Aren't AT's nested components just like standard unsynced templates? Can you add an element/style in the future to the original template and have it populate on all elements already added to different pages?
How much money do you get from Bricks to make this demo with it, since it’t obvious it has a lot more features with Elementor? You are forbiden to publish videos with Elementor now?
@@FlaviusCalinTofan nothing. If this was paid in any way it would be disclosed at the beginning of the video as that is a legal requirement. As I don’t use Elementor for projects and haven’t in 2+ years, I’ll show the tools I actually use.

Great that Croco is adding this, this and Gutenbricks are really expanding the possibilities when it comes to components
Thanks Paul. Looking forward to trying this out with Elementor!

Great News! thanks Paul for the updates

Not surprised, you can create templates in Elementor and edit it if you want to adjust something.
Not the same, as it's not controlled on a global level. You can create a template and add it with the template widget to embed it, or add a copy of the instance to change its content and styles
Excellent overview mate... I see a lot of potential with components when it matures. They probably could/should have added more features before going live.
Or maybe actually make it compatible with Bricks like they say it is. This is nothing more than half working beta functionality.

MOVE ON TO THE NEXT SOLUTION IF THIS SOLUTION IS NOT SUITABLE FOR There are tons of possibilities on the net
just easiest copy and paste and modify or even better make global with elementor; I do not see the point in components ;-(
😂😂😂 I feel your frustration... I think this is mostly good for giving the client options...
feels quite unnecessary at this moment, when you can do these things by copy-paste! Why populate the website with some unnecessary things?
