    Hi there, I’m evaluating Enfold and ALB for a project and I am searching for something which should be possible but I can’t figure out.

    I’m trying to create a multi column grid like magazine layout, but with no dates and page order ordering, not date. I’ve tried every combo of blog, magazine, portfolio grid, and masonry but can’t get a layout as desired. I want my content source to be pages, pulling the featured image.

    Can you tell me if there’s a way I can override a layout, or modify layouts to create a custom element. Portfolio grid is close to what I need but only supports things in the portfoio CPT. I want to pull from regular pages. As a suggestion, each one of the above content elements would be much more powerful if they all had abitliy to order and turn off date elements.

    Thanks you, beautiful work, I’m just stuck trying to create a simple grid array from pages.

    Hey Bryan,

    Could you please attach a mockup of what you’re trying to achieve? And can you show us what you’ve got so far?

    Best regards,
    Victoria

    Hi Victoria,
    Thanks for your help.
    The Magazine content element comes closest to what I’m wanting to accomplish in it’s simplest form.
    [img] | Page Title
    [img] | Page Title
    [img] | Page Title
    However, I would like no date (I know how to css display:none) but also option to control ordering, not fixed at date ordering.
    I’ve attached the dropbox link. Showing default Magazine element.
    I’m trying build a simple content grid from pages and have it ordered be page order. So I tried all of the content elements had some sort of restriction that prevented the ability to create something as basic as I’m trying to do.
    My suggested fix for Magazine would be option for ordering (date,page up/down, alpha), as well as toggle for date.
    Along the same lines, I also wanted to create a bullet list of page titles. no image, no date, page / or alpha ordering. Couldn’t do that with a content element. Close with magazine element, but not quite. Thanks.

    Hi,

    Just add this code in the functions.php file so that you can select the “Page” post type.

    add_theme_support('avia_template_builder_custom_post_type_grid');
    

    The layout might look a bit different because the “Page” post type may not support other features that the “Portfolio” post type does.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
