    Hi,

    I have 3 questions regarding blog posts.

    1.
    In Blog-Layout I was activating author, number of comments, blog category and date of publishing. But on the blog page in blog post excerpt author and number of comments are not displayed. Is there a solution to display these?

    Blog post excerpt

    2.
    In this blog post comments are allowed, but there is no button or something to write a comment. In discussions also all necessary buttons are clicked (I think ;-) Please can you help me here?

    3.
    I understood that on a blog page I cannot have category filters like in a Portfolio. On a test page I was adding links to the defined categories of the blog posts in a text block and clicking these links is leading to the right result displaying all blog posts of this category. But the look is different, like this:

    Blog post category view

    By the way, here are the number of comments and the author (wrong font) displayed.

    Is there a way to let the category view look like the blog post view (first picture above) including photo, headers using the same font (except category), text excerpt, read more button, date, number of comments and author?

    Your assistance would be very much appreciated.

    Best regards,
    Tom

    Hey tom_on_wheels,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    1.) These elements will only be enabled or will only be visible in the single post page. If you want to adjust grid layout, you have to modify the shortcode templates in the enfold\config-templatebuilder\avia-shortcodes\postslider file directly.

    2.) Since you are using the Advance Layout Builder (ALB) for the post, you have to add the Comments element manually in the builder or the editor in order to display the discussions and the comment form.

    3.) You can add this filter in the functions.php file to adjust the layout of the archive or category pages.

    add_filter('avf_blog_style','avia_change_category_blog_layout', 10, 2);
function avia_change_category_blog_layout($layout, $context){
   if($context == 'archive') $layout = 'blog-grid';
   return $layout;
}

    If you have any additional questions at this time we kindly ask that you open them up in a separate thread. The longer threads get in the forum, they become more difficult to support as they tend to drift off topic and they also make it troublesome for users trying to search for solutions. Keeping threads relevant to their original inquiry ensures that we can keep better track of what has been resolved and that users can more effectively find answers to similar issues they might be experiencing.

    Thanks!

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Hi Ismael,

    thanks for the explanation regarding comments in ALB and for the insertion in our blog.

    Also thanks for the filter, it works.

    I will separate my questions in further support requests.

    Best regards,
    Tom
