columns blog-home/archive/woocommerce-shop

hello everybody,
thanks again for this beautiful theme and its great support. (i recently prolonged my license until 2020)!
i have perhaps an easy to solve problem, but dont know which would be the best way to do it.
on my homepage (i.e. the blogpage) i want to display one column of latest posts (and two sidebars), on the archive pages two columns (and one sidebar.)
i configured GP to display one column of posts and added the following code-snippet:
add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns','tu_portfolio_columns' );
function tu_portfolio_columns( $columns ) {
if ( is_archive() ) {
return 50;
}
return $count;
}it worked fine, until i added a woocommerce shop. now on the shop-page the woocommerce columns would only display 50% wide. it seems, that is_archive also affects the shop_page.
is there a way have different settings for displaying columns between archives (2 columns) / blog-homepage (1 column) and the woocommerce shop-page (1 column and three products in a row, which can be configured easily and seperately through customizer)?
and my second question: because i am using two columns for archives: i would need to display the double amount of posts for the archive pages (or only half the posts on home page.) how can i achieve this?
any help is appreciated.
thanks, horst
Hi there,
Thanks for renewing!
Try this as your function:
add_filter( 'generate_blog_columns', function( $columns ) {
if ( function_exists( 'is_shop' ) && is_shop() ) {
return $columns;
}
if ( is_archive() ) {
return 50;
}
return $columns;
} );For your second question, try this:
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', function( $query ) {
if ( ! $query->is_main_query() || is_admin() ) {
return;
}
if ( $query->is_archive ) {
$query->set( 'posts_per_page', 20 );
}
}, 1 );You can adjust the posts_per_page to whatever.
Let me know if that helps or not :)
thanks tom for your fast reply!
problem number one is solved! thanks!
for the second problem -> the number of posts:
with your code snippet i am getting a white screen...
i also tried another code from the support forum before:
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'posts_on_page', 1);
function posts_on_page($query){
if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() && ! is_admin() ) {
$query->set( 'posts_per_page', 12 );
}
if ( $query->is_page( 'archiv' ) ) {
$query->set( 'posts_per_page', 24 );
}
}no white screen with it, but it displays also 24 instead of 12 post on my home/blogpage. (btw: i configured wordpress to display 12 posts, but with the code-snippet this number has also no effect...)
thanks again for your help!

Strange - I just made an adjustment to my code, can you give it another shot?
thanks tom, the new code works perfectly!
i have a small other problem (on a different site running GP as well) obviously because of the migration from the local machine to the live-server: there are two links of images referring to localhost (in the header), but i cant find where to change them.
should i open a new support ticket?
thanks for you help!
Gonna take a blind guess here...check mobile header logo and navigation logo:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/mobile-header/
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/navigation-logo/
If not new topic please :)
thanks again tom & leo,
eventhough there where no entries in the mobile header with navigation logo (no image selected) i enabled it, disabled it, set a new image (from the server), deleted it.
after that: and no more localhost entries in the code.
thanks a million, and what a great support.
all problems solved.
best, horst
Glad we could help :)
