    I have added the “blog posts” element to a page using ALB, in grid format, in 1/5 columns. If there is no “featured image” attached to a post, then the Fallback Image (Standard, Link, Quote, Gallery, Video, Image, Audio ) does not show up, and in turn collapses that element, if I place just one image as featured in one of the posts that shows, then they expand, if none…nothing.

    See screens following:

    Blog grid with collapsed thumbs is near bottom of page (http://goo.gl/bEhJKQ).

    Hi paulsutton,

    Yes, that is correct. If there is no featured image on an item then the container for the blog post gird element does not have anything to expand to. As far as I know this is intended but I’ll tag Kriesi for the ‘official’ word on it.

    Regards,

    It would make sense that it was intended if the “fallback image” degraded gracefully. Instead I get a collapsed area that still displays the stylings of that container.

    Hey,

    You can add this on your custom.css or Quick CSS:

    .avia-content-slider.avia-content-grid-active .slide-image {
min-height: 111px;
}

    This will force the placeholder to show even without the featured image.

    Regards,
    Ismael

    Thank Ismael, that did it. Probably a good chunk of css to add in a future update.

    Hey Unfortunately, since the width and height of the image will change when on different devices setting a fixed height wont really work. My best recommendation would be to create and upload a custom “dummy” image that you use if you dont want to display a feature image
