Blog Styling Guidance

[marymmccauley]

Hello,

For our Blog’s /category/ pages, is it possible to edit the text under the main headline? Right now they say: BELOW YOU’LL FIND A LIST OF ALL POSTS THAT HAVE BEEN CATEGORIZED AS “CATEGORY” and we would like to insert: “We are happy to provide a full-service consultative approach. Whether you’re a client or not, we invite you to make use of our free knowledge resources to help guide you during your self-service solution implementation, and our specialists are just a phone call away!” How is this achievable?

Additionally, is it possible to enable a search function on blog pages? We also can’t recall how to display images on the main blog page, how can we enable them while controlling their preview size?

Hi Mary,

Thanks for writing in! To change the wordings on the category, please follow this post (https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/category-archive-url/50958/6?u=mldarshana). Make sure to check your current stack using on your site and implement accordingly. For example, if you’re using Renew stack, you need to copy the file under /x/framework/legacy/cranium/headers/views/renew/ into your child theme.

To add search functionality on your Blog page, you can enable sidebar for your Blog by head over to X/Pro -> Theme Options -> Blog area.

To use this Global Content Layout functionality, you also need to make sure that “Sidebar” is set under X/Pro -> Theme Options -> Layout and Design.

If that is set correctly, you can then add search widget into your sidebar, by head over to Appearance -> Widgets area.

Finally to set images to your blog posts, you need to upload an image for each of your blog post into the featured image section. Then it will display on your blog index and single posts as well.

Hope that helps.
