    Hi,

    I am new to website design and having some troubles with setting up the blog page. Or even customizing it.

    The link to the page has been attached.

    Essentially what I am trying to do is create a grid layout, with equal sized images, small blurb of the blog entry, heading of the entry.

    I don’t want to show the date of the post or the author and I would also like to get rid of the blue “news” title under the images.

    Also when you click on the post, and when it opens in the new page (example page link in private attachment), how do I get rid of the post date in the link?

    Thank you!

    Sorry would you be able to also help me with the menu please

    I have created a drop down menu, but struggling to change the background colour to this: #008bce
    and I need the headings “Safety”, “Environment”, “Engineering” and “Support” changed to white and then #6d6e71 when hovered over.
    And the same with the smaller titles under the above four headings.

    Also could you please assist on how to change the colour of the bullet points (the small arrows)? I need them in white and then #6d6e71 when hovered over.

    Thanks!

    Hey!

    Try adding this code to the Quick CSS:

    #top .slide-meta .slide-meta-del,
#top .slide-meta .slide-meta-time,
#top .blog-categories{
    display: none !important;
}

    Cheers!

    Hi Josue

    Thanks for that.

    It removed the date and the “News” heading. But how do I add a preview of the blog post?

    And are you able to please help me with the menu drop down?
    I need to remove the grey rectangle hover and instead make the text grey when it’s hovered over.
    And make the triangle bullet points white when not hovered, and grey when hovered.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    that’s a basic WordPress feature, so refer to:

    How to Display Post Excerpts in WordPress Themes

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Excerpt

    For your menu go to Enfold->Advanced Styling and style your menu the way you want it.

    Best regards,
    Andy
