The question: The parent theme draws a thin line above each footer section (protection toolkit, helpline, copyright). A child theme that doesn't want those lines has to override them — should the divider stay a default that every site turns off, or default to nothing and be turned on only when a site actually wants it?

The question: The live editor moves actual front-end DOM nodes when you drag something. But nesting a column needs an inner .fw-row that doesn't exist in the rendered page yet — the corrector only creates it at render/save time. So when I drop a column into another column, do we hand-build that inner-row DOM inside the editor frame, or do we re-render?

The question: The first time I put a column inside a column, the frontend came out broken — the content truncated and a literal [/column][/row] showed up as text on the page. Why does nesting the same element blow up, and how do we render a column-inside-a-column without WordPress choking?

The question: I want a page-builder column to be able to contain other columns. Do we add a dedicated "Inner Row" element you drag into a column (like Elementor's inner section or WPBakery's inner row), or do we just let a column accept columns directly and build the row ourselves? And how deep should nesting go?

The question: Can we make the Off-Canvas header mode more flexible? Right now it only displays the menu. Can it display Snippets — I want the ability to add shortcodes or custom info in that panel. Perhaps a select where the user chooses default menu or snippet, and for snippet a dropdown of snippets?

The question: Posts now has 20-plus card designs. The markup only ever outputs the chosen design, but does the CSS? Should every page with a Posts block load all designs' styles, or only the one in use — and if only one, how do we wire that without a list to maintain as designs keep growing?

The question: Now that the basic color-picker shows the Color Presets as swatches, should we just use it for every color in Theme Settings and drop the preset picker? Those colors go into the dynamic stylesheet, not classes, anyway — so what's the preset picker even for?

The question: I want a shortcode to ship lots of visual designs — and to keep adding more — without the view file turning into an ever-growing pile of conditionals. How should "which design renders" be structured so a new design is cheap and safe to add?

The question: The testimonial rating stars showed up as tofu (□□□□□) on a live site. Do we enqueue Font Awesome so the fa-star glyphs resolve, or render the stars some other way that doesn't depend on a webfont being present?

The question: UnysonPlus is a fresh restart of Unyson. The rich typography control shipped as typography-v2 while the original typography was a weaker, older implementation. Do we upgrade typography-v2 in place, or promote it to the clean typography name and scrap the -v2 suffix?
