Search Results for 'blog'

Hi, I apologize, I don’t speak Italian so I’ll have to use a translator to read and reply. It might not be accurate.

Do you have a link to your site? Is it possible to create a temporary login so I can take a quick look?

Which method are you using to display your blog?

There is the first method –

Settings > Reading ….then set the Posts page to the page you created as your Blog.

The second method is to set the page as the blog page from the Template section in the editor. That of course depends on which version you’re using.

Translated from above –

Ciao, mi scuso, non parlo italiano, quindi dovrò utilizzare un traduttore per leggere e rispondere. Potrebbe non essere preciso.

Hai un link al tuo sito? È possibile creare un accesso temporaneo in modo che possa dare un’occhiata veloce?

Quale metodo stai utilizzando per visualizzare il tuo blog?

C’è il primo metodo:

Impostazioni > Lettura … quindi imposta la pagina dei post alla pagina che hai creato come il tuo blog.

Il secondo metodo è impostare la pagina come pagina del blog dalla sezione Template nell’editor. Naturalmente, questo dipende dalla versione che stai utilizzando.

Hi,

First off, Awesome Job on the design! Looks very good.

(The link you posted didn’t work, so I made a couple guesses until I figured out what it was – http://rockingurteens.com/ )

For the homepage, the code is designed to show the Blog and the Widgets together if that part of the theme is activated. It’s been a few years since I created this feature in the theme and I can’t remember if there is a quick way to do what you’ve mentioned. I’m sure it exists, but it might take a while to come up with the code for something like that.

The only quick option that I can think of is to simply hide those widgets from displaying when the site is being viewed on any of those pages (other than the Home page).

Here is what you can add to your CSS to hide it.

.home.paged .front-page-1,
.home.paged .front-page-2,
.home.paged .front-page-3,
.home.paged .front-page-4,
.home.paged .home-mid,
.home.paged .home-mid-wide {
    display: none;
}

I would also experiment with adding something like this if the Blog Title shows up behind the logo/header area –

.front-page .site-container .site-inner {
    margin-top: 80px;
}

Sometime in the future, the Aspire Theme will be fully upgraded to use Gutenberg for the Homepage just like my newer themes. This will be much better in every way.

In your admin go to the Customiser page, then click Homepage Settings. Set your Homepage Displays to “Static Page” and then set the Posts page to whichever page your Blog is located on. That should do it.

For this version (since it’s still based on Widgets for the Homepage) it shouldn’t matter what you set the “Homepage” to since it is designed to automatically show the Front page widgets through the front_page.php template. However, this will change in the very near future as this theme will be completely redeveloped to fully use Gutenberg to setup the Homepage Content.

I just did a test on a local install to make sure it’s working with the latest version of WordPress and Genesis and everything looks good.

Let me know if this works.

If not, let me know if you need me to login and take a quick look.

Hi Jack,

Which version of Genesis are you running? If you’re using the latest version (and also the latest version of Aspire) then the Blog page is set up a bit different. Now it’s recommended to create your Blog Page, title it, and then set it as your Posts page on the “Settings > Reading” page.

Once you go to Settings > Reading in your Admin. “Look for “Your homepage displays” then set it to “A static page”, and finally set your “Posts page” to the Blog page you just created.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi,

Are you using any of the Front Page widgets? If so, take a look at this link – https://appfinite.com/tutorials/how-to-setup-the-home-and-blog-page/ They should automatically show up on the homepage once you activate them.

You can set the “Front page displays” to “Your latest posts“ on the Reading > Settings page in your admin. Then whenever you add content inside a Front Page widget they will show up on the Homepage automatically. This means you won’t need to create a “Page” for your Homepage as the Front Page template will display as your homepage.

If you would like for me to login for you and activate this just let me know. All I would need is a temporary login.

I tested the demo content download link and it seems to be working. Are you referring to the Dropbox link from here? – https://appfinite.com/theme-setup/aspire-theme-setup/#ihp

I don’t think I’ve done that before, but I saw this tutorial after doing a quick search – https://wpsites.net/web-design/make-a-gridcolumn-styled-blog-page-in-genesis/

For the blank Blog page, set your Homepage Displays to a Static Page, and then set your Posts page to the page you want your Blog Posts to appear. As you already know, once you add homepage widgets, the front page template will automatically show up as the home page. This is the way it’s going to be from now on due to the new Genesis 3.0/WP.

A lot has changed since the new Genesis 3.0 has been released, so there will be more updates to this theme (and others) to make sure everything is up to date and working perfectly.

Hey @dreamingspires…

I think what you are looking for can be found here: https://appfinite.com/topic/blog-remove-author-and-show-excerpt/#post-22066

If you’re referring to the Blog/Sidebar that shows up at the bottom, you can deactivate that by going to Customize > Front Page Content Settings and then you can turn off the setting from there.

Let me know if that helps

What did your homepage look like before you installed the plugin? Were you using Homepage widgets? Or was the Homepage showing your Blog Posts?

If you want to add the white background back in here – https://www.gbpersonaltraining.com/blog/ add this to the code I posted above –

.entry {
        box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
	-moz-box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
	-webkit-box-shadow: 0 3px 6px rgba(0,0,0, .2);
	background: #fff;
	margin: 0 3px 40px;
	padding: 40px 20px 0;
}

This will add a white background just like you have on the other site.

You can remove the box-shadow lines if you don’t need them.

Let me know if that helps, or if you’re referring to something different.
