I have followed everyhing in the theme options and blog layout, but I cannot make it work…:(
On a test page (link below), I have a first color section to display a picture, then a second color section containing only a Blog Posts, works fine, all featured pictures of the specified category are well displayed.
When I click a picture, I would like to open the corresponding post ‘at the same place’. I mean: how to create a ‘blog’ page as a copy of the test page, so keeping the first color section (and main menu), but in place of the Blog Posts having the post content itself ? No right menu, no ‘blog’ style, just display the post .
Thanks for help.
Hi Luc!
I’m not entirely sure I understand what you mean but you can select not to show the sidebar in the blogpost itself in the righthand menu. If you want higher flexibility in designing your blog post you can try to use the Advanced Layer Builder for the post. Please provide us with screenshots or a more detailed explanation if I misunderstood your intentions.
Regards,
RikardRikard, this is exactly what I want to do: use the Advanced Layer Builder for the post. But it’s not working !
I have created a page to display blog list with their feature images (with a Blog Posts element), that works fine, all my posts are displayed by their corresponding feature image; then when I click a picture the post is opened in a usual blog page (using single.php): that blog page has a menu, a right sidebar, sharing tools, leaving comment tool … I don’t want this, I would like to use a special page to display a post content. So this is exactly what you suggest, and this is what I did !
I have followed everything (http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/have-a-different-single-page-blog-layout/), but my special page ‘Blog’ is not called, however in theme options evertything is correct. I can see that single.php is always called.
Below are links in private.Hi!
The advance layout builder are now enabled for posts. You can copy the layout of the blog overview page plus the single post content. Note that using the advance layout builder for post will remove all default elements such as featured image, post meta info, social share section etc. You need to start from scratch. If you expect to have the same single post layout as your current blog overview page, I’m afraid that’s not possible without major modification on the single.php file.
Cheers!
IsmaelIsmael,
Ok, that means I can make a post template with advanced layout builder, yes I know this and it works perfectly.
But think now that in the template, I have a color section (for example) with a blue logo inside, and under that color section the post itself (inside a Text element). Then I use that template to create 100 posts, good. Now tomorrow I want to change the blue logo color in red, that means I have to change manually the 100 posts !
So in Enfold theme options, the “Blog Style” parameter in Blog Layout section is for what use ? And in Theme Layout section, the “And where do you want to display the Blog?” parameter is for what use ? According to your own post http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/have-a-different-single-page-blog-layout, something is not correct between that post and your answer.
So please if I can ask again: how to create a page template with the advanced layout builder to display posts by categories (I want a different page template for each post category) ? That’s necessary stuff for anybody ! I would have think that a powerful theme like Enfold would have a clean way to do that rather that doing PHP coding ! And if not possible, can you tell me how to change single.php to act as template-builder.php ?
Thanks.
Hey!
It sounds like what your wanting to do is create a page template so you can use it on a bunch of pages and then edit the template itself and have all pages update at the same time. You can see how to do that here, https://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates.
For posts though I do not see an easy way of going about that. There may be a plugin out there that offers this kind of functionality but I do not know of any that I can recommend.
Regards,
ElliottThanks for your answers,
But something is really incredible: I’m sure I’m not the only WordPress user that would like to display all its posts on a special designed page !
I have with Enfold a powerful page editor, but all my posts cannot be individually be displayed on a same custom page. Ok for the blog list element, that’s fine, but when I click one post of that blog list I would have to always get the same design for all my posts, that’s look so obvious. I know I can use page editor to design a post itself, but that design should be applied to all my post and especially existing posts, it’s a impossible work when having 100 existing posts ..
And if a day a user inputs a post and change some settings inside, the result will be awful.Having a page model designed with page editor on which all posts could be displayed seems to me so obvious and necessary.Or maybe I did not understand something in Enfold ..:(
Hi!
You can use our template feature to create a template from a specific page and then load that template for post. We do not have any feature for automatically updating a bunch of posts though. If you want every post to look the same then you’ll need to customize the single.php file. It would be best to hire a freelancer to help you out if you need to do some advanced customization to it.
Best regards,
Elliott
