Change layout of blog page

Hi. Is it possible to change blog layout to match following?
Want to change to alternating layout
Image | content
Content | Image
...
Hi there,
Should be possible with some CSS. Any chance you can set up a page with your featured image aligned left or right, then link us to it?
Thanks!
Let me work on that for you and I will reply with admin access.
Added url to original post.
Hi there,
in Customizer > Layout > Blog can you:
1. Disable the Columns
2. Set the Featured Image ( archive ) to display above the title ?
Done
First we need to wrap our post content in a container so we can set it aside of the image.
1. Create a new Hook Element.
1.1 Add this to the Hook content:
<!-- open post content wrap -->
<div class="post-content-wrap">
Note - the editor will automatically add a closing </div> - delete it!
1.2 Select before_content hook
1.3 Set Priority to 20
1.4 Set the Display Rules to Blog and Post Archives.
2. Create a second Hook
2.1 Add this to the content:
</div>
<!-- close post content wrap -->
2.2 Select the after_content hook
2.3 Set display rules as above.
Now add this CSS to your Site:
@media(min-width: 769px) {
body:not(.single):not(.page) .inside-article {
display: flex;
}
body:not(.single):not(.page) .post-image {
margin: 0 20px 0 0;
}
body:not(.single):not(.page) .post:nth-child(even) .inside-article {
flex-direction: row-reverse;
}
body:not(.single):not(.page) .post:nth-child(even) .post-image {
margin: 0 0 0 20px;
}
}
Hey there,
I'm amazed how there seems to be an answer to almost every question I have on this forum, so thanks!
A thing that helped me with this kind of layout, as it makes it possible to distribute the "column" width evenly and therefore keep the design more balanced:
body:not(.single):not(.page) .inside-article {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
}
body:not(.single):not(.page) .post-image {
margin: 0 20px 0 0;
width: 45%;
}
body:not(.single):not(.page) .post-content-wrap {
width: 45%; /* if you keep the percentages even, the remaining % will build a gap/axis */
}
Glad to hear that!
