Hi,

Is there a way to edit the skin of blog posts in the blog-page? (I´d like the “Kampala” skin, as shown in The Grid plugin)

Also, how do I change background color in the Blog?

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! The kampala skin is good for The Grid plugin only. The blog has a different structure with the grid items. The blog has no skin in it. You can customize it with custom css only. If you want to change the background color, please go to the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Layout & Design > Background Options. Please update the background pattern and background image. You can remove it after that. And to apply the background color, simply select your desired color using the color picker.

Hope this helps.

Thank you!

Then I just have a question; why create a dedicated post page at all when I just as easily can create a normal page with a Grid element displaying latest posts? Is there a good reason for this or is it just a wordpress practicality or something?

Not all users want to use a plugin to display blog posts and are happy using X’s blog design. Also, it is a standard for themes to have a blog template.

Thanks.
