Hi,

I'm looking for a plugin or css code to achieve a similar layout as this site: https://tinyurl.com/4unzkxtr

If you scroll down on the homepage you can see how they have got their posts displayed within boxes with thumbnails.

Could you possibly recommend a plugin or solution?

Hi there,

A plugin like WP Show Posts would be what you need:

Hi,

I think I've used this in the past and had issues customising it.

Do you have any idea where I can get started with css to customise like the site above?

Thank you

Hi Dax,

Is this for a site's default post list page or are you trying to add a "Latest post" listing on a page?

If it's for your site's default post list pages like Blog index page or Archive pages, I think the best way to do this is through the new GP Premium 2.0 Block Element content template.

If it's a "latest post" listing to be added to a static page:

Ideally, you'd want to start with something close enough to how the site's post looks.

Leo's recommendation, WPSP Pro, has a style pretty close to it. (Overlay)

From there, can simply style the post list with CSS like applying border-radius and setting a :hover effect.
