? Typical Use Case of this Plugin
You are building a big site with lots of different templates across various template libraries of different plugins. Now the “Builder Template Categories” plugin helps you organize those templates better and more efficiently. For example you have a template category “Landing Pages”. This category is now visible in Elementor’s “My Templates”, as well as in the Theme “GeneratePress” and its “Elements” Module, as well as in “PopBox for Elementor” plugin and also in “Pods” plugin’s “Templates”.
So in every one of those libraries you can now filter and list all parts of templates for this specific post type that belong to your “Landing Pages” category.
Please note: The categories are global but when filtering only those items are listed that are connected to the specific post type. See the FAQ for more info on that
