I can’t stop praising WordPress when it comes to the conveniences it provides. While the approach it takes on things might not suit everyone, every time, for the most part its solutions to common issues are good enough. Once such example is images, and the creation of custom sizes from the originally uploaded one.

A few days ago we released our first premium business directory theme for WordPress. Listee is an one-stop-theme perfect for any kind of online business directories and listings.
Listee is built around WP Job Manager, the most popular job listing plugin, built by the creators of WordPress itself. We have reworked some of the plugin’s functionality, through the theme, to allow you to create an awesome business directory, instead of the default job listing that comes with the plugin. All that while retaining all the features the plugin provides, including front-end user submissions.
Under the hood Listee is fully compatible with the WordPress customizer, and integrates all theme options there. Colors, typography, layout, and many more are there to help you tailor your business listing site, just the way you need it. Additionally Listee is fully responsive, making sure that the ever increasing mobile user base will have the best possible experience when using your site. It is also compatible with the ever so popular Elementor page builder to allow you to create stunning landing pages with zero coding.

One of the greatest things about WordPress, is undoubtedly its customizability. Not only it provides various APIs to make our lives easier by abstracting and hiding complex code and processes, but also allows us to intervene and modify its default behavior. It also gives us the ability to provide the same level of customizability in our own code. If you’re regularly reading tutorials about WordPress or you’re tinkering with PHP, chances are you’ve come across and interacted with hooks.
Gutenberg comes with a set of core libraries which are necessary for any kind of custom block development. Namely those libraries are:
To use them you need to include them as external script requirements to your final build by registering and enqueueing them, similarly to how you’d include any kind of script or style within WordPress.
