Filtering or just to list selected category (ies) in Posts, Posts Masonry, Posts Chess and Posts Tabs Elementor elements.
I can show all posts, or limit by post ID, but not by category/ies.

Great job, just one thing to be perfect. Post masonry to be a dynamic element, not just selected posts like right now.

Ok, I will think about improving that one also but without 100% positive answer that it will be done for those. Also I should tell you that by design it is much better to select one by one posts/products/categories (other masonry widgets on same basis) to make each item in the position user want to have it.

Yes, I understand. Maybe, just maybe, it would be beautiful, if we will have option to have both. The element is beautiful for blog intro pages, or header where news will be presented as they come out, and layouts are just nice.

Ok,
May I ask you,
1/ what do you think about our new Posts widgets (Chess/Timeline/Tabs) ?
2/ Did you compare them (pros and cons) to the ones by any extra plugins or Elementor Pro ?
3/ What are the widgets you would like also to have ?

1) Just Beautiful. From the first time I noticed them, I immediately said that will ditch UAE and EA plugins. That is why I wanted category/tags filter source you have implemented to use it on blog pages. I also still use the Blog Carousel widget that you plan to depreciate. I don't know why. It is a great widget.
2) Nothing to compare to bot native Elementor or EP widgets. Yours are way better and good looking in my opinion.
3) Ouch. You cough me unprepared on this one. I will let you know as soon as I found something in Pro or maybe UAE, EA plugins that I need and cannot accomplish with build in XStore widgets. It would be nice if for most needed uses we users would not need no extra plugins.

Keep up the good work.

Hello,
Thank you for your answers !
I could only give you few details about why Blog Carousel is going to become deprecated (in few words). It was wrote some time ago and was written with the code knowledge for that time. We are improving our skills all time and new widgets are written with new code optimizations and options we know users want to have.
Also I would like to ask you one more question if you allow ?
What are the critical zones of XStore you would like have improved or fully re-coded/re-done ?
Regards, Jack Richardson

Blog Carousel is good widget to have. Maybe think it over to rewrite it.
About other improvements, maybe some all around blog/news/magazine oriented enhancements. I know the theme is xSTORE and mostly commerce oriented, but it is pretty powerful and maybe a little touch on blog/categories and related staff for blog/magazine users would be fine.
