Changing the blog layout

Hi,

I need to change the blog pages layout: remove the sidebar, remove the category name on the top, change the way the featured image is displayed etc.

How can I edit this?

I copied the "content.php" file to my child theme folder and edited whatever needed in it and it worked.

Now I need to edit the "template-tags.php" file, copied it to my child theme /inc folder but whatever I change in that file doesn't seem to override the original.

Thanks for the help
Maurice

Hi Leo, thanks for your reply.

I can't link you to a page because it is on a local environment, however the sidebar options are not working for me. I am referring to the main blog list, the loop. I changed to no sidebar but this doesn't change anything, I keep seeing the sidebar.

I also want to move the image to a different location, floated left from the headline and excerpt, and have the "read more" in a new paragraph below the excerpt.

Thanks

That's weird. We haven't received any reports on that option not working. Any chance you can duplicate on a live server?

Are the featured image alignment options not working as well?

I created a menu item that draws a complete category from the blog posts. When I click the menu item I get a list of the posts in that category. That page is not defined as a page so I have no way to control its appearance.

Thanks

I will upload it to our staging server and send you s link soon.

Thanks.

Sounds good :)
