Hello,
My Blog layout is configure to : 2 posts, with First Post Full Width option enabled.
My problem is,
When there are to two posts with a different size in the content (One is Long and the other is Short),
The Short post from the two, has a spare white spaces to match the Long Post.
How can i remove those pare white spaces? this is very ugly..
Hi there,
Have you considered using the Excerpt? https://docs.generatepress.com/article/blog-overview/#blog-content
Masonry would be another option: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-columns-in-the-blog/
Hey Leo,
I tried before the Masonry option,
But i really want the First post to be full width, and i cant get this with the Masonry option enabled...
Try the beta version here: https://generatepress.com/gp-premium-1-5-alphabeta/
It should give you exactly what you are looking for.
Let me know.
Hey Leo,
It seems that this is what i need,
But i prefer to wait for the stable version of the plugin :).
By the way,
Is there any release date yet?
Best Regards,
Ohad
No release date yet but soon.
It's pretty stable as we are already on beta 3 :)
Thank you Leo
No problem!
Hey Leo,
I successfully update my GP theme to v1.5.5,
And still have those spare white spaces..
I don't want to use the "Masonry" option,
Because then the columns are very narrow.
And by the way,
Even if i set the limit, to only 2 columns.
When Masonry option enabled, eventually 3 columns will be displayed..
Is this how it's supposed to work?
Thanks,
Ohad
Not sure what you mean? Can you link me to the page?
Of cures Leo,
Here it is: Link
You can see When there are to two posts with a different size in the content (One is Long and the other is Short),
The Short post from the two, has a spare white spaces to match the Long Post.
Unfortunately that's how columns work - all the blocks are same size.
Maybe you are looking for the masonry option?
i've tried the Masonry option,
but then the columns are very narrow...
Hmm the width of the columns shouldn't change?
The difference between columns and masonry is the length of the blocks.
Yes, and by the way,
Even if i set the limit, to only 2 columns.
When Masonry option enabled, eventually 3 columns will be displayed..
Is this how it’s supposed to work?
