Using the generated shortcode, you will be able to embed your document library into any "Shortcode" element of page builders, website builders, or theme's advanced editors.

These integrations include:

* Elementor
* DIVI by elegantthemes
* WPBakery page builder
* Visual Composer
* Flatsome theme
* Enfold theme's advanced editor
* Oxygen builder&#x20;

Note: With version 3, you can now easily adjust your document layouts and styles by clicking the Edit button and modifying the content directly. There's no need to create a new shortcode.
{% endhint %}
