Questions ## Studio Chronicle: common questions What is Studio Chronicle for? Suits an about or history page, where a company's milestones read better one year at a time than as one long scrolling list. Typical uses: company history page, studio anniversary story, charity milestones timeline and family business heritage. Does Studio Chronicle need a plugin? Yes. Designed Patterns come with a subscription, which includes the Pattern Paste plugin that runs them; Studio Chronicle arrived in plugin 0.37.2. Without the plugin, or on an older version, it pastes as plain WordPress blocks: the content reads in order, without the designed layout. What can I edit in Studio Chronicle? As pasted it has 5 headings and 16 text lines, 12 of them optional and removable. The items are a repeatable set: the item controls add one or remove the last. The layout stays protected while you edit. Unlock layout, in the section’s settings, lets you insert, move and remove any block. Will Studio Chronicle match my theme? Choose Designed to keep its own palette and type, or Use my theme to let it follow your theme’s colours and fonts. Either works in any block theme on WordPress 7.0 or later. Choose Use my theme in the preview above to see it follow a theme before you copy. Can the motion be switched off? Yes. Turn off Animate changes in the section settings, and visitors who ask their device for reduced motion get the same: the section shows its final state at once and anything they can press or drag still works. With JavaScript off, all content stays visible.
