5 replies · Started by Vishvendra on October 26, 2020
Just want to change the default look of category archive pages. I can do that using Elementor but it slows the speed. So, basically in need of you guys provide me with some way out using Gutenberg.
Thanks. :)
Hi there,
You will need to create a static page basically and use WP Show Posts:
https://docs.wpshowposts.com/article/use-static-pages-as-category-archives/
The category archives inherit the blog settings in the customizer:

Or you can make them different from the main blog page with this filter:

Thanks for the reply.
Okay please clear somethings for me,
Do I need to install WPshowposts plugin for the first option.
The category inherit archive so what I need to de there, uncheck it.
I'm a bit overwhelmed by the filters, :(
The filter can be used without WP Show Posts but you will need WPSP to display posts in a static page.
Okay, will try it. If everything goes smooth I'll mark it as resolved. Thank you.
No problem :)
