[Support request] Managing homepage design

[Alper]

I’m using the Info theme from the site library, but I couldn’t find how to set which content to publish on the homepage. Currently, the last published content come out 10 times on the homepage. Since I could not choose the categories to be published, I could not write the names. How can I manage the homepage design?

Hi there,

Can you start with this first?

Let me know 🙂

[Alper]

I was not using Elementor, I installed the plugin.
But with Elementor, I can’t manage the page. I need to create a new homepage 🙁

I was not using Elementor, I installed the plugin.

The INFO template doesn’t require Elementor, and Leo’s instructions don’t include anything related to Elementor.

Hi Ying,
It may seem very simple to you because you know how to use the theme. Are you aware that you are not sharing information openly enough? If this page that Leo shared isn’t Elementor, what is? I need to edit the homepage, but you are sharing information like riddles.

That’s the query loop block from GenereateBlocks plugin:
https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/query-loop-overview/

It allows you to build your own post loops.

I’m not able to find the Query Loop Block.

In GenerateBlocks plugin there is only image and send me to documentation.
How can I reach query loop block to change homepage?

Hi there,

Info is built using the core WordPress Block Editor.
And some of the Blocks used on that site are added by the GenerateBlocks Plugin.

Begin by editing the page.
Then to help navigate the page, open the List View.
Then select a Query Loop Block, and it its sidebar Settings > Parameters you can set the query params for it.

See here, where i go through those 3 steps:

Hello,
I think something is missing in my dashboard.
When I tried to edit my homepage https://prnt.sc/AZi5Zv5VyR1p
I see this page https://prnt.sc/wEpnhHyHWqNF
So, I can’t use Query Loop Block.
Do I need any plugin to use it?

[David]

Ok, so what you’re seeing is the Classic Editor, which WordPress replaced with the Block Editor a few years back now.
Go to Plugins, do you have a Plugin called Classic Editor or Disable Gutenberg installed ?

[Alper]

I installed Disable Gutenberg and solved my problem.
Thank you.

[David]

Glad to hear that
