What Nova Adds
Aurora’s Customizer settings apply globally. When you set a single post layout, it applies to every post on your site. Nova changes that. With Nova installed, you can choose a different layout for a specific post, show the sidebar only on a particular category, or give one author’s page a different design from everyone else’s.
Nova will ship with 400 additional layout templates across headers, footers, single posts, archives, and author pages, expanding your layout options beyond what Aurora includes out of the box.
Requirements
- The official Aurora theme must be active. Nova will deactivate automatically if Aurora is not the active theme.
- WordPress 6.0 or higher.
- PHP 8.0 or higher.
Pricing
Nova is a subscription plugin available for $29 per year. The subscription covers updates and continued compatibility with new versions of Aurora and WordPress.
What’s in Nova
- Additional layout templates across all template regions, targeting 400 total at launch
- Per-post layout overrides: set a different single post layout, header, footer, or sidebar visibility on any individual post
