Hello Support Team.

I want a Blog page with Sidebar (http://mnsnext.com/next-blog/). The sidebar is to be appeared in the Blog’s home page only (not anywhere else in the website). The blog page includes dynamic posts from the categories named “Featured”, “Events” and “Entrepreneur Resources”.

Currently I have been able to display the post from these categories but the there is limitations i.e. a single post should be marked with two categories minimum and should be within in a date from a month. I don’t know why it is so. I have done this by exploring the X theme forum. I want latest three posts from each category to be displayed.

Can you please help me to do so.

Thank You.

Hi there,

Seems like you’re using third party plugin to display posts on home page. Regretfully, we cannot provide support for third party plugins or scripts as our support policy in the sidebar states due to the fact that there is simply no way to account for all of the potential variables at play when using another developer’s plugin or script. Because of this, any questions you have regarding setup, integration, or troubleshooting any piece of functionality that is not native to X will need to be directed to the original developer.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello,

Thanks for your kind response.

I have not used any third party plugin but yes there are custom script. Now, I have removed all the custom script.

My requirement is that I want a Blog page with Sidebar (http://mnsnext.com/next-blog/). The sidebar is to be appeared in the Blog’s page only (not anywhere else in the website). This page is post page. I have posts in another pages and has filtered with categories to display in that pages. The blog page includes dynamic posts only from the categories named “Featured”, “Events” and “Entrepreneur Resources”.

I want each categories to be displayed in a row as displayed now. As there is three category so there should be three row. Currently it is displaying only one category post. I want latest three posts from each category to be displayed.

Some thing like attached but along with right sidebar also.

Can you please help me to do so.

Thank You.

Hello,

Thanks for your kind support.

The problem with recent post is that I am unable to show post meta that I want such as Post’s Author with link, Post’s Date with archive link and Category along with posted categories link. As done in http://mnsnext.com/next-blog/. I have created a test page for blog (http://mnsnext.com/blog-test/). But this is not give the feel of Blog page. There is missing information such as Post’s Author with link, Post’s Date with archive link and Category along with posted categories link.

I have created sidebar as suggested via the above link, Added widget to this page but sidebar is not displayed in this page.

So could you please look in to this matter.

Thank You.

Set your site layout to Content with Sidebar then in your Blog layout, use the global setting.

Thanks.

Hello,

This is affecting my whole website. I want sidebar to appear in the Blog page only.

Thank You.

Hi There,

After following Christian Advice you need to go page by page and click edit page on WordPress Top Admin Bar

Under the blue update button you will find:

Page Attributes > Page Templates > Select: Blank No Container Header Footer.

Hope it helps

Hello,

Thanks. My all the required pages are done as suggested. But what about posts? My other page’s posts get affected when I change the global layout option where as I want sidebar in the Blog page only. I didn’t find any such attributes for the posts.

Thank You.

Hello There,

Thanks for updating in!

1] By default the featured images were being displayed using the custom image dimension provided by X. If you want to display the full image instead in single blog post so that it will be full image and fullwidth, please insert this following code in your child theme’s functions.php file.

// Custom Featured Images
// Display the full images in single blog posts
// =============================================================================
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_featured_image' ) ) :
  function x_featured_image( $cropped = '' ) {

    $stack     = x_get_stack();
    $fullwidth = ( in_array( 'x-full-width-active', get_body_class() ) ) ? true : false;

    if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {

      if ( $cropped == 'cropped' ) {
        if ( $fullwidth ) {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry-cropped-fullwidth', NULL );
        } else {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry-cropped', NULL );
        }
      } else {
        if ( $fullwidth ) {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry-fullwidth', NULL );
        } else {
          $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'entry', NULL );
        }
      }

      if ( is_single() ) {
        $thumb = get_the_post_thumbnail( NULL, 'full', NULL );
      }

      switch ( is_singular() ) {
        case true:
          printf( '<div class="entry-thumb">%s</div>', $thumb );
          break;
        case false:
          printf( '<a href="%1$s" class="entry-thumb" title="%2$s">%3$s</a>',
            esc_url( get_permalink() ),
            esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Permalink to: "%s"', '__x__' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ) ),
            $thumb
          );
          break;
      }

    }

  }
endif;
