    Hi Kailas,

    I couldn’t check your site due to authentication required which I don’t have any idea what username and password are.

    Could you check that?

    Thank you.

    Hi Kailas,

    Thank, checked it and previous discussion.

    The posts order will not work with the given code. Because it was meant to group posts by category. And ordering will effect only for categories and not posts. This also means you will get duplicate posts if you set your post to have more than one category.

    Multiple order query isn’t possible in wordpress at the same time (eg. taxonomy order query (categories) + posts order query)

    Thanks!

    I’m running into the same issue that everyone here has, and am glad I discovered this thread. I want to use Ethos’ Filterable Index feature. However, I want my blog home page to default to all posts in chronological order, newest to oldest. Then, if readers want to filter by topic, they can click and do so. Seems to me like this should be the standard default of this feature that would make the most sense to everyone. Is an update with a revision to this feature coming soon?

    Hi Grant,

    What you’re describing sounds like the default functionality. At first, all posts are shown chronologically. But if you select a topic, the view is limited to posts in that topic. (http://theme.co/x/demo/ethos/1/)

    If you’re looking for something else, you could explore some of the custom code in this thread. For now, we don’t have plans to alter this functionality in a future release.

    Hello and thank you all for the information. I agree with the suggestions to the filter and I’m glad to read that some will be implemented in the next X version.

    I’m new to wp and am still trying to understand how to properly use the theme. I’m much more backward than the rest of you who have already designed very beautiful and functional sites. So mine would be an insignificant concern compared, but since I have not found it anywhere else, I didn’t want to open a new post (probably everyone, except me, knows the answer).

    I am using the child theme for Ethos1 and I wonder, once the user starts navigating pages, posts and galleries within the site, how can he/she return to the front page? I think I’ve seen all kbases tutorials and videos. I can not figure out how to do so in Settings > Reading or menu… How do I offer the option of returning? Or doesn’t it probably make any sense at all?

    Thanks in advance for your reply. Greetings from Argentina.

    PD: Sorry, I found the little home icon in the breadcrumb, I haven’t recognized it before. That would be enough except for the fact that it’s probably too small and a bit confusing for my target… Where can I edit it? Thanks again.

    Hi Tangauta,

    No worries! We’re here to help you out as long as it’s within the scope of our support 🙂

    Regarding your question, You can always add a custom button at each end of post / page if you need a visual “return to home” but that is already available when you click your logo (if it’s already placed on the website). To better assist you though, may I please have your website’s URL so we can inspect it?

    Cheers!

    Hello Support 🙂 Thanks for your reply. I have not yet uploaded any contents on my site (tangauta.net), I’m still learning wp and X simultaneously. And it’s a good thing I’m new to all these issues because my future users will be mainly our current readers who have been reading our monthly print magazine for the past 20 years. So I’m afraid it will take some time for them to understand the home icon in the breadcrumbs or the link on the logo. As for your suggestion, to be honest, I would prefer that this option was more visible at the top of each page. (You’ll see I’ve just added a home link on the footer menu but I have really no idea how it happened.) Hopefully the little home in the breadcrumb could grow… Thanks again.

    Hi Tangauta,

    Thanks for the information! I just remembered that on the navigation bar, there’s usually a “home” button once you have set up the page and the menu, so since the navbar is usually on the most visible side of the page then I guess that can serve the purpose of going back to home. (as shown here: http://theme.co/x/demo/icon/2/) What do you think?

    Regarding the breadcrumb, you can also adjust the size of that too with the help of the custom css 🙂

    Oh! Thank you Support, got it! I adjusted the icon via custom css as you suggested. That’s exactly what I wanted, just a little bigger was enough. Thank you! Greetings from Argentina.

    PD: I’ll be back soon I guess… I have already new questions. 😛

    Thanks for your reply. I ended up adding an “All” category, added it to every post and added it to the filterable index category list, so the default view are the “All” posts in chronological order. However, when I do that, the page number navigation disappears from the bottom and you can’t go beyond the first page. Is that supposed to happen? I’d like to have both the filterable index active and the page number nav active.

    Hi Grant,

    Page navigation is disabled by default if you will use filterable index. Filterable index loops with categories, and paging only applies to posts loop and not category loops.

    Thank you.
