Hi,
I’m new to Enfold and this is my first request for support. A few questions about managing blog posts in Enfold …
On my blog page, I have it set up with Grid Layout, so it’s showing the 3-column grid and then a right sidebar. That’s what I want.
1) I would like it to work so that when someone clicks on one of the Categories on the right, the page will show just the posts in that category.
2) By default, the posts listed on the main blog page are all my posts, in date order. Is there a way for me to indicate specific posts to show up on that blog page? (For example, maybe selected best posts.) In my previous theme, they had something called Sticky posts, which allowed me to tell which posts I wanted to feature on the main blog page.
3) When you go to an actual blog post, by default it places the Featured Image right at the top. I don’t want to show the Featured Image there. How can I disable/turn that off?
Thanks in advance for your help. :)Hi mitchelljay!
1. That’s how it’s currently working so I’m not sure I understand. Take a screenshot and highlight what your seeing on your screen.
2. You can create a new category called “featured” or something similar and set the blog posts element to display only posts assigned to that category.
3. When you set the featured image there will be a small checkbox beneath it for disabling it on the single post view.
Best regards,
ElliottThanks. In regards to question, I think I see what’s happening. if you click on one of the Categories in the right sidebar, which has, say, 2 posts in it, it will sort the page to include those two posts. But it also shows posts that have been labeled as sticky posts. So, is there a way to make it so that the sticky posts only show up the main blog page, when you first land on it. Or, is the way to do that what you suggest in answer to question 2: get rid of sticky posts, make a Featured posts category, assign the posts I want to show up on the main blog page as Featured. How do I indicate that that page should open with Featured posts. Will that happen automatically?
Hi!
I would just set them to regular instead of sticky. Or you could try adding this to your child theme functions.php file.
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'enfold_customization_ignore_sticky'); function enfold_customization_ignore_sticky($query) { $query->set('ignore_sticky_posts', true); }Cheers!
Elliott
