Hi there,

I have been looking at design layouts for blog posts and found this…

https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/should-you-use-cdn/

Is this something I can easily replicate in X?

Ie. Larger text in opening paragraph and max body width say at 50%, but only for blog posts.

Can it be done?

Thank you.

Hi There,

You can built your Blog posts using Cornerstone and you can for sure built it like that.

You can use padding to contain the text just in the middle or you can divide your section in 1/5 + 3/ 5 + 1/5 and hae your content in the middle.

After you find your ideal format you can save it as Cornerstone Template and you can use this template to all your blog posts.

Hope that helps,

Joao

So once created. How do I pull in my blog post. I mean a single blog entry, not the blog landing page.

Wouldn’t that have to be the single.php page?

Hello There,

The Cornerstone template is only good for creating individual posts. If you want to edit something and then apply it to all your single blog post, you need to edit your single.php template. Please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

As this is all custom development, regretfully we won’t be able to assist further. Custom development is outside the scope of our support. We’re happy to provide advice and get you started in the right direction, but you would still be responsible for the implementation.

For more assistance, you might want to contact someone who caters X setup and customization needs. Please see Custom Development.

Thank you for your understanding.

Where would I find the ‘renew’ single.php file?

Also, If I do amend single.php, could you let me know styles that would allow me to achieve 1/5 + 3/ 5 + 1/5 layout?

thank you.

Hello There,

Since you are using renew, you can to copy the _content.php from wp-content/themes/x/framework/views/renew/ and paste it over to wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/renew/.

When you want to apply a custom columns, you should be using these html code:

<div class="x-container">
  <div class="x-column x-sm x-1-5">
    // add your content here
  </div>

   <div class="x-column x-sm x-3-5">
    // add your content here
   </div>

   <div class="x-column x-sm x-1-5">
    // add your content here
   </div>
</div>

And again as I’ve said before, since this is all custom development, regretfully we won’t be able to assist further. Custom development is outside the scope of our support. We’re happy to provide advice and get you started in the right direction, but you would still be responsible for the implementation.

Thank you for your understanding.

thank you. Much appreciated.

Is there a help page showing the layouts grids? For example 1/5 + 3/ 5 + 1/5

Also, how do I make the page full width? Any help pages on this greatly appreciated.

[Jade]

Hi there,

Since that layout grid is a custom one, we do not have a help page that shows and example of its usage.

To make the page full width, set the page template under page settings to Blank – No Container | Header, Footer.

Hope this helps.
