    Hello

    I am using Enfold > Avia Layout Builder > Blog > Grid Layout
    I am trying to find a way that allows the blog to have the image on the left, and the excerpt on the right.
    And have an Excerpt of more than 50 words.
    The closest setting I can get to this is with ‘Magazine’. But this only allows a short excerpt.

    Any quick css fix for this?

    Hi darranreadman!

    It sounds like your wanting to use the single author small preview pic blog style.

    Send us a link to your page and take a screenshot highlighting the changes your wanting to make and we’ll take a look.

    Cheers!

    Hey!

    You’ll need to contact the plugin author if your wanting to add pagination to the plugin.

    If your wanting to get our blog posts shortcode to mimic that look then use the single author small preview pic style and add this to your custom CSS.

    .small-preview { width: auto !important; height: auto !important; }

    Regards,

    Hi Eliott.

    This is better. I would prefer to have the images slightly wider (4×3).
    Only other issue is I was hoping to have a large image article at the top and the smaller image articles below.
    But if I add a second Blog Element, or the Magazine Element, it seems to stop the pagination below.
    Any way to change this?

    Thanks
    Darran

    Hi Eliott

    Sorry, my bad regarding the pagination. It actually works fine.
    I used Magazine for the top article, set on 1 post only.
    And set the blog to pull the second post.

    But is there a way to widen the image a little to a 4×3 width? After using the following;
    .small-preview { width: auto !important; height: auto !important; }

    Many thanks

    Hi!

    Try editing line 118 in the functions.php file.

    $avia_config['imgSize']['square'] 		 	    = array('width'=>180, 'height'=>180);		                 // small image for blogs

    You may need to regenerate the thumbnails, https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/.
