How to make an archive page for post categories

Hi folks,
I use GP Premium and GP Blocks Pro. I am not exactly a coding or styling wizard. Please kindly keep this in my when answering 😅
I want to create several archive pages which use the same layout as my blog page (I habe mave it with the help of one of Leo’s YouTube Videos). However, I have absolutely no clue how to make an archive page and thereafter how to limit the displayed blog posts to a specific blog category.
Could someone kindly help me.
Many thanks
Klaus
Hi Klaus,
Not 100% sure if I understand but sounds like the block element content template is what you are after?

You can create a template for each category if needed.
Take a look at this video as well:

Hi Leo,
Now I am confused. I have already watched this video and it doesn’t seem to help me. The video you suggest is about how to assign certain design to a blog page as a function of the blog category.
I need help to make an archive page for a specific category. Let say I have three categories: A, B, C. I want to put menu items A,B and C into a menu and by clicking on A, I want a page to appear which presents only blog post with the category A.
Hope this explains it a bit better.
Cheers..

Oh shit… how embarrassing. I think I just found the answer:
Using the url my-url.de/category/category-name/ will do the job….
Request can be closed
Many thanks

Yup - WordPress creates post category archives automatically.
