Using Archive post on the front page
3 replies · Started by Sam on December 9, 2020
Hey I am not the most experienced at building so apologies if this is a silly question
I am re-building my basic blog site
Structure
Front Page with 4 post archive summaries after a hero header
1) Last 6 created posts (hot of the press type of thing)
2) Random 6 post archives from a category - 1 section for each of main categories (so 3 in total)
Category page
3) Post archive
Post page
4) standard post page
Creating the category page blog archive is fine using the post setting in GP
Can I use GP for the 4 mini archives on the front page. Tried using WP show Post but cant figure out how to change front size etc
Hi there,
the WP Show Posts method is the simplest way to create that kind of layout.
The Pro version of WPSP has font size controls etc.
But if you want to set up the site using the free version, send us a link and tell us the changes you require we'll see if we can write up some CSS.
Thanks David - I thought it might, didn't what to the buy the pro version before checking that was the case
I will buy the pro version - this way I have the flexibility to change whilst my CSS knowledge builds
But thank you for your kind offer
Glad to be of help!
