    I am using the Enfold Child Theme, and I can’t get the blog page to show properly using the masonry display. A friend sort of fixed the problem, and she had this to say:

    “It appears that it is NOT your hosting, but something going wrong with Enfold. I have managed a work-around that honestly is good enough, but if you want to dig deeper you can put in a support ticket with Kriesi.
    I created a new page called Musings and put your blog posts there. Every time you add a new post, it will appear on that page just like it’s supposed to.
    The setting I had to change was in the Enfold Child – pointing the blog setting to nothing. When I tell it to point a page (ANY page), it tries to grab some cached thing. I’m sure there’s a way to stop that, but it’s going to take more investigation than I have time.
    My work-around was to just have a new page with a regular ol’ link to it in the menu.
    Looks good now! And the preview and update work like they’re supposed to. ”

    So I made a new post and posted it. The masonry display is again not working, and now the featured image won’t work. It seems like this theme keeps breaking bit by bit.
    Can you help? If I can’t get you to help, I’m going to have return this theme, having wasted literally days and days trying to make it work.

    The page in question is https://margaretsloan.com/musings/

    So my friend has been working on this, and this is what she says.

    In your Child theme, do not select a page for your blog. For some reason, that’s what’s breaking your site. I’m going to look at it closer with my tech support when I have time.
    Do not change the Musings page away from the Blog Posts widget. It’s what is collecting your posts as you create them. You can add a title, image, or slider, but leave the Blog Posts there. The masonry widget is not working.
    Create your posts as normal and they will appear on the Musings Page.

    The other thing that is happening is that when you click on the “blog” breadcrumb, it goes to some page that no longer exists, or maybe never even did exist.

    Please help!

    Hi there. Did you ever get the admin login I sent you? It feels like it just went into a black hole. My Enfold Child theme is still not working for me.
    Thank you,
    Margaret

    Hi,

    Thank you for sharing the credentials.

    Adding a test post appears on the blog page

    Clicking on the blog in breadcrumbs takes me to the blog page https://margaretsloan.com/category/musings/

    What exactly is the issue here?

    Best regards,
    Vinay
