Hi there,
I was wondering if I'm able to create featured posts on my homepage with similar style to this site. One big one on the left and 4 smaller ones on the right. If the styling can be consistent with my site, like including author name and category, that will be great.
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
simplest way is to create 2 x WPSP lists.
One for the large featured post.
and one for the other 4 featured posts set to display as 2 columns.
Then use a Column Block to add the two lists to the page.
I notice you're using Pagination on 2 of your lists on your home page. We recommend against using pagination when other lists are displayed - you will notice navigation from the longer list also effects the smaller list.
Hi David, Thank You!
I managed to create them by assigning different tags. How can I align the height so both the right and left columns are the same?
Also, how can I create a line that goes across the heading like this site? Like how they have a line across "Top Picks"
Thanks!
Not simple.
Select the left hand column and in the Settings sidebar > Advanced > Additional CSS class add:
forced-height
then add this CSS to your site:
@media(min-width: 769px) {
.forced-height > div,
.forced-height .wp-show-posts,
.forced-height .wp-show-posts-single.post {
height: 100%;
}
.forced-height .wp-show-posts-inner {
height: calc(100% - 1.8em);
}
}
Hi David, Thank You!
You're welcome
