    I'm having several issues with a custom post query and the creation of a posts grid widget. I duplicated the "Article Grid Style One" widget and edited the fields (changed the default color options and button text) however they are not changing on the front end. Also my custom post type of agent is not displaying even though I have pulled it in the posts list as the sample on the widget creator.

    I am working on local environment however I included screenshots showing exactly what is going on so you can see. Happy to send additional information. 

    I'm also curious as to why my custom post would not populate in the posts list query on the front end? The custom post is set up correctly and there are existing posts that I pulled into the posts list in the widget creator.

    I determined the issues with the features not changing on the frontend..partially was because of the externally linked CSS file that was copied over when the widget was duplicated and partially because the database was apparently just caching the data. Once I deleted the features and re-added them they updated. 

    However the posts query still is missing one of my custom post type but every other elementor posts widget outside Unlimited displays it so it appears to be a bug? All the pre-made widgets with posts query in unlimited are missing the custom post type as well as the ones I have created.

    Still having issues with the Custom Posts Query in any of the UE widgets...custom post types are missing from the dropdown despite showing in any other elementor widget. I see there was a bug related to this in the past two versions in the changelog and it doesn't appear to have been resolved. I have the same issue across multiple sites using the plugin. If there are more than 2 custom posts types they do not display.

    Sorry I had to push my local version to live to provide to my client so it overwrote the username I provided you a few days ago. 

    I see the custom posts in the dropdown now however when I updated my posts carousel has stopped displaying (here it is on the live site where the plugin has not yet been updated: http://newbranchrea.mysites.io) I have updated on my local version and it has now disappeared. It won't even let me re-add the widget in the updated version. I see the widget in the navigator but I cannot click on it directly in the editor window either. 


    Here is a temp link to the local version with the updated plugin http://1ef768c8.ngrok.io/
