[Support request] Last Post Always as a dynamic page header

[Halil]

Hi there,

I tried to understand many explanations but I am confused. How is it possible to make “the last blog post” page header?

Another question is, how can put some lines or arrows between blog titles in “Recent Posts” widgets? Blog posts’ title appears too close to each other, I wanno put some sort of lines (very light) between posts’ name or put some small arrows (something like that) to the beginning of post names.

Same thing is needed for categories widget too, if possible. I think those requires some css code but I dont known how to do it.

any help will be highly appreciated. thank you.

Hi there,

You can try using Tom’s WP Show Posts: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-show-posts/
Then add the shortcode into the page header content.

Try this CSS for widget list:

.widget ul li {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;
}

Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

I’ll try that show posts plugin.

What kind of css code should I wrote to put a seperation line between post names? Or would u propose another recent post widgets?

[Leo]

Hmm did you try my CSS above?

[Halil]

sorry, my mistake, I got it wrong ! yes that code put a solid line between “names” in all widgets. thank you.

teach me to catch a fish! how can I make it soooo light so that it’s barely visible? or can I also put a arrow at the beginning of names in addition to lines?

thanks again.

[Halil]

or how to increase space between names ?

[Leo]

Looks like you figured out the color.

Try this for the arrow:

.widget ul li:before {
    content: "\00BB";
}

and this for space:

.widget ul li {
    padding-bottom: 10px;
}

[Halil]

thanks, that worked.

[Leo]

No problem!
