Change category of posts that are fetched

[Sandberg]

Hi,

I’m wondering how we can change what category of our posts is fetched. We will have one hub page with all of our posts and then break it down into different categories.

On our site, the main hub page is for all sports articles and it’s working fine, but we want to have separate pages that only shows articles with e.g. basketball, football and tennis articles.

I noticed that if we go into the category, it automatically shows these articles only but we need to change the content around the articles for each category as well as the URL structure so it doesnt include /category.

So the question is how we can change what posts the “posts” element fetches to insert it into other pages.

Thank you for the help!

Hello @Sandberg,

Thanks for writing to us.

By default if you insert the “Post” element it would list the recent posts since on the Looper Provider default settings is recent posts so it would list the 5 recent posts. In order to change the get the different post you can change the Looper provides settings to Query builder or Query String to list different posts. Please have a look at the given screenshot below.

In case you have not seen the Looper doc please have a look at it.
