[Support request] I want to add a footer to my blog posts with category and comment count.

[Emmanuel]

So i’m trying to add a footer to my blog posts as visible on blog.asana.com.
I’m also using the asana layout as a platform to mimic for now on 🙂

I like how the footer is separated from the core of the post with a bar and how the comments are displayed with an icon.
Can i do it in GP ? I’m sure i will have to add some PHP. I’ve managed to add the category and comment to the bottom of the div but going further seems hard.

On a side note i can’t seems to show the blog post picture anymore. I messed up with the show excerpt or full content but even when i switch to full content que image doesnt show anymore..
Also can i show the image of the post in the excerpt mode ?

Cheers

Hi there,

The site you linked isn’t using GP. Can you double check?

I think footer widgets would work to replicate the footer blog.asana.com

The max number is 5 which seems to be what you need:

Pictures should definitely show in full content mode. If you want them to show in the excerpt, you can consider using the more tag or a plugin:
