What comes with Spectra Pro?

Spectra is free and sufficient for most users. However, Spectra Pro is for power users who need advanced features for their web design requirements.

Spectra Pro comes with new blocks, new features for existing blocks from the free plugin, and some totally new features.

Hint:

We have focused more on adding advanced features to existing blocks because that’s what power users look for!

Let’s take a look at the new blocks first.

As you will proceed, you will realize that most of these features and blocks are available as separate plugins on WordPress, but Spectra Pro has those features built in.

New features in the Spectra plugin ✨

Dynamic Content Extension

Any typical content, let’s say static content, doesn’t change unless you update it manually and publish the page.

You will mostly see such static content on your contact page, homepage and so on. But have you noticed how your blog archive page automatically updates recent blogs whenever you publish new blogs?

Any website’s blog page is a good example of a page with dynamic content. But that’s too limited as a default feature.

What if you get to design a particular section using these dynamic powers?

Spectra Pro allows you to display text and images dynamically across your site with Spectra blocks!

You can spice up your website by showing images and text dynamically!

Add data from various sources like Current Post, Post Type, Archive Description, Archive Title, Archive Custom Field, Site Tagline, Site Title, and many more. Even shortcodes and custom fields work magically.

To display that data, Spectra Pro allows you a complete flexibility of choosing your own source field that you want to import and display.

Dynamic Content Extension

Spectra Pro keeps it seamless with easy updates and fallbacks for missing content.

Plus, you can unlink blocks effortlessly! No more static boredom!

Animations

Animations bring your Spectra blocks to life!

Enjoy free animations for free, or go pro for advanced control over delay, duration, and easing options.

Go to Advanced Settings on any Spectra block, and you will find animation options for free.

However, Spectra Pro brings advanced features to the same animations.

  • Animation Duration – It will help you make your animation effect appear slow or fast by setting the runtime.
  • Animation Delay – It will help you make your animation effect appear early or late by setting up a delay.
  • Animation Easing – Setting up different animation easing effects allows you to set a speed at specific intervals. There are 4 modes – Linear, Ease In, Ease Out, and Ease In Out.
  • Play Repeatedly on Scroll – Enabling this option lets your user see the same animation while scrolling. If disabled, the animation will just appear once.
