Hi again, I am trying to do something like this page: https://fotoeduterapia.com/cursos-y-talleres/ or this one: https://www.instituto8.org/formacion/
I have been trying with columns + insert image and paragraph block but is not easy. I also tried with media+ text block but I can`t get a unified size for each box. I wonder if there is any plugin or tool that helps to do this as simple as possible.
Thank you in advance,September 17, 2019 at 7:36 am #1011549DavidStaffCustomer SupportHi there,
will the ‘image boxes’ link to a post or page ? Like your blog would?
September 17, 2019 at 7:47 am #1011568EvaYes, the will link to a page. It will not link a blog.
September 17, 2019 at 7:55 am #1011696DavidStaffCustomer SupportYou could use the WP Show Posts plugin:
Which would allow you to create a post grid for your pages which will display the Pages featured image and the excerpt.
To add the Excerpt Field to your Pages Editor ( like Posts ) – add this PHP Snippet.
add_post_type_support( 'page', 'excerpt' );
How to add PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/
September 17, 2019 at 8:32 am #1011727EvaWhat I need is not an excerpt but a “title” of the page linked to the image.
I have not ever worked with PHP and don’t know where to add it. I don’t understand the link you send me. I guess it will take me some time of searching, is a new universe. Thanks!
September 17, 2019 at 8:37 am #1011730LeoStaffCustomer SupportWP Show Posts as David suggested should be the way to go.
You have the option to show the title only.
As for adding PHP, the article David provided explained 3 methods of adding it. Code Snippets would be the easiest if you aren’t using a child theme already.
September 18, 2019 at 4:17 am #1012398EvaI have a child theme already, I have add the the shortcode directly in the page and it worked.
What I get now is this http://tinyurl.com/y2myy7me but the image icons are very small although I specify 2000px. I am trying to do something like this: https://fotoeduterapia.com/cursos-y-talleres/
Thank you in advance por your help!
September 18, 2019 at 4:23 am #1012400DavidStaffCustomer SupportThe images are small because the columns are narrow.
And the columns are narrow because the width of your content container is also narrow.How are you building that page is it using the normal editor or a pagebuilder?
September 18, 2019 at 4:33 am #1012408EvaNormal editor and generatepress, I am not using any pagebuilder
September 18, 2019 at 5:45 am #1012445DavidStaffCustomer SupportOK so the content width can be set in two ways:
1. Cusomizer > Layout > Container > Container Width – this applies to the entire site.
2. The Layout Element > Content > Container Width – this can be applied to specific pages using Display Rules:https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-element-overview/#content-1
September 18, 2019 at 7:25 am #1012533EvaI have changed the content width to the maximum (2000px) ans still the same thing… :S
September 18, 2019 at 7:40 am #1012544DavidStaffCustomer SupportAre you using the Layout Element anywhere ?
September 18, 2019 at 8:17 am #1012707EvaYes I am using layout content everywhere in the webpage…
September 18, 2019 at 8:39 am #1012727DavidStaffCustomer SupportIf you’re setting the Content Width in the Layout Element. Then you will need to:
1. Edit the current Layout Element and on the Display Rules tab > Exclude the page with the WP Show Posts shortcode. Do this for any page you want to be wider.
2. Optional – create a new Layout Element that you apply to the wider pages.
September 19, 2019 at 4:50 am #1013417EvaI finally solved the problem!! THe thing is that I copied the shortcut inside a block or column inside the page. That is why it didn’t work. Now I am trying to change the fonts typography and the size but I can`t do it in the free version. I don’t see the typography option in the pro version either.
Can you recommend me any other plugin? I need it to be simple because I am not very good at web design. I would love to do something similar to this:

Thank you in advance for your help, regrets from Spain,
