Change Existing Site to Generatepress
8 replies · Started by David on April 12, 2017
I have an existing site with hundreds of posts, how would I setup Generatepress so that I don't need to modify each post one by one?
Hi David,
I'm not quite sure what you meant?
What are you trying to edit in each post?
Let me know.
As long as your posts don't have any previous theme functionality (shortcodes etc..), then there should be no issues switching themes.
@Leo
I mean is there a way to bulk edit or set the default template, so I don't need to Disable Elements, Sidebar Layout, Footer Widget settings, without having to do it on each post one by one.
Yup for sure.
I assume you only want these changes to single posts and not site wide?
If so what elements are you wanting to hide using Disable Elements metabox?
Single Post Sidebar Layout can be adjusted in Customizer > Layout > Sidebars.
As for footer widgets, are you trying to hide a specific widget or all of them?
A link to your site might help as well. Thanks!

On this site, I would like to disable Top Bar, Header, and Featured Image / Page Header site wide

I assume you are currently using disable elements for site header and top bar on that page already since I don't see them?
Top bar should be disabled automatically if no widgets are added. Site header can be removed using this CSS:
.site-header {
display: none;
}

Looks like the page header is only in the front page created with Elementor?
The featured images can be disabled using the customizer as well:
On the main blog page: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adjusting-the-featured-images/
On single post: Customizer > Layout > Page Header > Single Post Header Location > Hide
Let me know.
Thanks, all good.
Glad I could help!
