Creating a magazine-like hero to display latest posts

Hi there,

You will need a plugin like WP Show Posts and Header Elements:
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-show-posts
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/header-element-overview/

It will require some custom CSS to duplicate that look though.

Let me know if this helps :)

Thanks Leo! I'm not technical at all though and I don't know how to write CSS :/

I'm just looking to do something simple like the hero that this theme has: http://theme-sphere.com/smart-mag/demos/trendy/

Do you know if there is a way to copy the CSS that makes it work? Or are there maybe any other resources that you could point me to?

Thanks in advance Leo

I just heard from Tom that he will upload a magazine style site to the Site Library today :)

I'll post here again when it's up.

F5, F5, F5 ... ;-)

Not yet available for importing but you can see the preview here:

Thanks Leo,

I have read through the posts from this site. It looks interessting, but should be difficult to convert an existing site with many posts to this.

It would be very nice, if there where a documentation, how to get only the 4 featured posts on top of the homepage, to a different site, e.g. to Marketer.

It might be easier to import this one when it's available.

Marketer isn't very hard to replicate :)

I think here is a misunderstanding.

I meant that it would be nice to know, how to get only the 4 featured posts on top of the Dispatch homepage, to a different site, e.g. to Marketer.

This would be a cool mix between blog and magazine.

We will see what we can do :)

That would be nice, but I mean this in general.

I often think it would be nice, to take a specific section from one site to another site.

I would love to read more documentation how to do this. Similar to your documentation with the Page Hero Examples.

Thanks for the suggestions :)
