Hi there,

I’ve looked through as many posts as I can but have yet to find an answer. Is it possible to integrate “the grid” into the x theme blog. The official documentation states to exchange this line of code in archive.php:

if ( have_posts() ):
while ( have_posts() ): the_post();

// some code from your theme
// …
// …

endwhile;
endif;

TO THIS
The_Grid(‘My Grid Name’, true); // where true is for template mode

I haven’t for the life of me been able to get this to work with x theme as I think the architecture if fundamentally different. I think it would be an awesome feature to have to completely integrate the plugin into x theme to make the search functions really pop!! I’m sure it’s an easy fix. Any help will be appreciated!

Hey Phil,

You can find the loop in _index.php located in wp-content\themes\x\framework\views\global. To override it, copy the file in the same folder structure in your child theme like wp-content\themes\x-child\framework\views\global.

Implementing this is beyond the scope of our support though. You might want to contact our trusted partners who caters X setup and customization needs. Please see https://community.theme.co/custom-development/

Thank you for understanding.

Hey Christian,

Thanks for your response! I managed to find that file easily which was great. I had a look through the documentation the grid supplies and their suggestion to incorporate this feature does not work in X-theme. I see many users are having the same issue and cannot get support from the grid as they do not have a license… I believe it may be an easy fix! However, I am not a experienced developer so have no idea where to begin really. I also don’t want to pay for a full custom service if it really is a few lines of code change that could be incorporated.

I’d love to see X-theme help out with this one (if possible). I’m sure many users would be extremely grateful! It would be amazing to have the ability to customize our search and category pages with this beautiful tool! Any help/suggestions would be (hugely) appreciated 🙂

Hey there,

Regretfully, this particular customization request is outside the scope of our support as this is not related to an issue with the theme and instead has to do with your customization of it. As such, you will need to investigate this particular issue on your own or seek help from a developer should you not feel comfortable making these changes yourself. If you have any further questions about the theme, we are more than happy to provide you with assistance on these inquiries.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks Christian,

No problem. I’ll get digging and see what I can find.

I too would like to use The Grid as template for my search results and archive. Could be very handy in the future to figure it out and post tutorial about how to implement it with X | The Theme for Search results etc.

Hi there!

What you want to do is being called “using the grid as a template” by the grid team. they even documented how to do it. you can find the info by following this link –> http://theme-one.com/docs/the-grid/#!/grid_as_template

[Fotkyzadarmo]

Alejandro that is exactly what OP posted here. That does not help as X theme is different. Did you try it or do you know how to do it?

Thank you for your understanding.
