How it behaves
It still works when things are switched off
Two columns of postcards drift in opposite directions beside the invitation; the pointer steers them, a click holds a column, a pause button stops both, and they stand still off screen.
- Motion off or reduced motion
- It shows its final state at once; anything a visitor can press or drag still works.
- JavaScript off
- All content stays visible and readable; controls the script adds are hidden.
- Plugin missing or older
- It pastes as plain WordPress blocks, in reading order, without the designed layout.
Questions
Postcard Reels: common questions
What is Postcard Reels for?
The close of a travel, tour or hospitality page, where one invitation to book should lead and the places themselves sit behind it. Typical uses: tour operator home page close, retreat or trip booking band, hotel or guesthouse call to action and photography workshop sign-up.
Does Postcard Reels need a plugin?
Yes. Designed Patterns come with a subscription, which includes the Pattern Paste plugin that runs them; Postcard Reels arrived in plugin 0.41.0. 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 Postcard Reels?
As pasted it has 9 images, 1 heading, 11 text lines and 2 buttons, 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 Postcard Reels 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.
