Marketer Theme setup
6 replies · Started by marcus on March 29, 2021
Hello, I changed my theme to the marketer theme and wanted to copy the layout of this site. https://nogluten.com/
I can't figure out how to get the blog title in the pictures, and how to get the layout of the containers the same way.
Thanks.
Marcus
Hi Marcus,
The page you've linked is a static page with the Cards option from WP Show Posts pro:
https://demos.wpshowposts.com/cards/
You will be able to achieve something similar with GP Premium 2.0 (currently in beta 1):

See a quick demo here:

Let me know if this helps :)
Hi Leo,
I would like to test the possibility of doing something similar to WP Show Post using GP Premium 2.0.
I assume it's through the Content Template Element but I can't figure out how to apply a filter to select only a few posts in the template (as does WP Show Posts for example using categories.
Can you give hint ou maybe explain it in a future video?
By the way, thank you so much for the videos. They have helped me a lot to learn how to use the new features of the theme.
Hi Jose,
You'll be able to choose a specific location for the content template in Display rules > Location.

Let me know :)
Hi Leo, thank you so much. This should help me greatly
Hi,
It may be easier to explain what I want with an example:
A site has pages with the category "movies" and "sports".
A page (static) has the title "what to do on a rainy day".
On the page "what to do on a rainy day" should appear the list of pages with the category "movies".
My question is whether I can do this with Content Template Element (GPP 2) or it's only possible with WP Show Posts shortcodes (which doesn't have the design possibilities of generateblocks...)
Thanks
Hi there,
for a static page you would need to use WP Show Posts.
Or alternatively use a Block Element to Hook in your own content before / after the Category archive.
