How it works/Settings

This article explains the end-to-end Rezicraft workflow and the Pro Settings page.

How Rezicraft works — the big picture

Templates Gallery  →  Use Template  →  Draft Resume  →  Gutenberg Editor  →  Publish  →  Public URL
                                                                                          ↓
                                                                              Share / PDF / Print / Email (Pro)


  1. Browse templates at Rezicraft → Templates
  2. Use Template to create a draft with sample content
  3. Edit your content in the Gutenberg block editor
  4. Publish to enable a public resume URL
  5. Share the link, or use Pro tools (PDF, print, email)

What happens under the hood

  • Each resume is a WordPress custom post (rezicraft_resume)
  • Template choice, color palette, font, and headshot settings are stored as post metadata
  • Public pages use a dedicated resume template, not your theme’s default post layout
  • Your resume content stays in your WordPress database on your domain

The block editor experience

Rezicraft does not use a separate resume app. You edit in the same Gutenberg editor used for WordPress posts and pages. The editor canvas is styled with your template CSS so the editing view closely matches the published resume.

You can use standard blocks: headings, paragraphs, lists, columns, groups, and images (for headshots on Pro).

Settings page (Pro only)

Rezicraft → Settings appears only when the Pro package is installed. Free users manage resumes through Templates and the block editor; there is no Settings submenu on the free build.

Advanced options

Email Resume — Enable Email to Recruiter on the Resumes list. When enabled, each published resume shows an action that opens your email app with a professional message and a link to your live resume.

Download settings

Enable PDF download — Shows a Download PDF button on public resume pages. The button uses your browser’s print-to-PDF flow with print-optimized CSS.

Print is available automatically on Pro (no separate toggle) — a Print button appears on public resume pages when Pro is active.

Background colors

Customize the look of public resume pages and the editor canvas:

SettingWhat it controlsDefault
Page backgroundColor around the resume document#e8ecf1 when unset
Resume background“Paper” color inside the documentFollows selected color palette when unset

Leave either field empty to use the default behavior.

License

The Settings page shows whether your Pro license is active and links to Manage License on Freemius for activation, upgrades, or deactivation.

Saving settings

After changing any option on the Settings page, click Save. PDF and email features respect these toggles immediately on the front end and admin list.
