Pre design post output

Hello,
I’ve searched your forum, website, and plugin page, but I cannot find how to start designing the published post.
When I create a form, it looks great, but when I fill in the form, post an entry, and look at the published article, it looks like a bulleted list.
But I wanted the output to look like the designed form.
Can you help me, or where can I find the design information?
Ultimately, I want the complete form even if the fields are not filled with information.

Yes and I’m looking for how to edit outpost source code, I’d be happy for someone to say how it’s done.

Hello @joorkataa

Thanks for reaching out.

Basically, it depends on the theme how it will show the submitted posts. If you want to change it, you can achieve it with custom CSS. If you write the CSS we do recommend writing it on the theme’s style.css or Appearance-> Customize-> Additional CSS like this: http://prntscr.com/lpbl02.

Hi Tasfia,

Thanks for your advice, but do you have more information? Your link to http://prntscr.com/lpbl02 does not work. But I think that this is the hard way to do it.
I have searched youtube for more information and found this link; https://youtu.be/LcYT8U10EzI.
Maybe this is the way to go?

When you use Divi you can use Dynamic Content. (Without the need for ACF.)

Hello @paulcobben

Thanks for writing back to us.

You can use a page builder to create a post, in a sense that WPUF works with a shortcode. When you create a post form, the WPUF generates the shortcode for the post form. So while creating a page with the builder you can just paste the shortcut anywhere you want to load the post form.

Hello @tasfiamohtasim,

The functionality that you describe is exactly how I used this plugin.
But this is not my question.
My question is when I filled in the form, and look at the published post, it’s a bulleted list instead of a designed page.

What I have tried next:
Now I use the divi theme builder where I can design a template and assign it to a specific category where the posts are that are filled in from the form.
But when I use the custom fields (by adding a text field and select dynamic content) it works. When I use all the custom fields from the form and save the template and look at the published post again, I get the error “There has been a critical error on this website.” Maybe there’s a limit on custom fields in a divi child theme.

I solved it as done above, but did some research with the DIVI team and there’s probably an issue with a multi-select field from the WPUF. I will create a new post here with a better description.
