Hello, I've been wrecking my brain trying to figure out why the blog content layout is not allowing me to make any changes. I have a blog in a category attached to my primary menu and Im utilizing generate blocks. Can you please help me figure out what Im doing wrong? Id really like to have my blog show in a category on my primary menu with just the blog title, featured image, and a small excerpt.

Hi there,

can you share a link to the page where i can see the issue ?

I'm not sure I understand your question, are you trying to add this single post as the Buying guide menu item's sub-menu?

Hi ying, I want my blog layout to look just like this layout on this website https://mensgardening.com/gardening/. How can I get that done with generate press do I use elements and the block editor? When I try to use blog content layout it doesnt seem to work what am I doing wrong?

I want to change my single post to the category archive? How do I do that? Is it done with elements? Can you walk me through how its done?

When you click on buying guides in my primary menu I want it to look like the category archive and not the entire post. Im not even sure how you got to my category archive. Excuse my ignorance Im trying to figure it all out and its a little confusing.

The buying guides menu item is linked to the single post, can you go to appearance > menus, and check what's the setting for that menu item?

Maybe take a screenshot and upload it to https://postimages.org/ and share the link with us.

That solved that simple problem I had to link it to categories. Thank you!

That's it? Lol let me know if there's anything else I can help with, sorry for the misunderstanding!

Ying, how do I add my latest post to a two column grid to display at the bottom of my homepage and resize each grid to fit perfectly in the center inside of a container? Should I use elements to do it with the block editor? Whats the best way to do it?

You homepage is a static page, you don't need a block element for that.

You can add a query loop block from GenerateBlocks directly to the homepage editor.

Wow, thank you so much, Ying that was precisely what I needed!
