 * We have a client who has custom post blocks on their home page with a very specific
   layout. We use Flexible Posts Widget to do that, but the plugin appears to be
   abandoned which is why we’re looking at Flex Posts now.
 * Because Flex Posts has a template files, I was able to modify one of them to 
   give our client the layout they want. However, as soon as we do a plugin update
   for Flex Posts, those changes will be overwritten, and we’d like to avoid that.
 * Is it possible to create a copy of your template file(s) and store them in the
   theme folder so we can make layout modifications?
 * thanks!

 * Hi, it’s not documented yet, but yes, you can copy the template files in `flex-
   posts/public` directory into your theme/child theme directory, and then you can
   freely modify the files.
