Blog posts on front page, blog entries in category page
10 replies · Started by Miguel on January 14, 2017
I don't know if this is a "setting" or where I may be missing the option(s). I want my front blog page to have the list of my posts. My menu bar links to categories so if someone clicks on Fitness category, I'd like the page to display my posts in columns with only the picture and title.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hmmm... I think the Post Grid plugin may be what I was looking for. Unless, of course, someone can recommend a different p/i?
Hi Miguel,
Tom's WP Show Posts plugin is basically designed to achieve requests like yours without coding. I would recommend checking it out :)

Let us know if this is helpful.
Hey Leo,
Yup that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! :)
Quick question (if you don't mind): the titles under the images are too big. Which option controls the size?
Thanks again.
There will be font size options in Pro version soon :)
For now we can use some CSS:
.wp-show-posts .wp-show-posts-entry-title {
font-size: 28px;
line-height: 1.5em;
}
Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/
Let me know if this works.
Yes, that fixes the size issue. Thanks for your help!
Any way to strip the "heading" all together? With some of my longer text, it breaks into 2 lines and too much vertical spacing. Plain text would be much better.
Thanks again. :)
Not quite sure what you mean? like you don't want the titles to show at all?
No, I want the titles to show. Here's what I'm talking about:

Added one line to the code above. Let me know if it works.
Thanks Leo. That's what I was looking for. Very much appreciate your help.
You're welcome!
