Style Blog Page

Hi

In docs you are showing to design the blog page in cornerstone.

But for some reason I dont find the way how to edit the blog site in cornerstone. I can see the site in cornerstone also I dont see the link in pages where it redirects me to “edit this page with conerstone”. It’s the only page in my Wordpress pages that does not have this link. Is there something I need to turn on to be able to create the blog design in cornerstone?

thank you!

Hello @bigdreams,

Thanks for writing to us.

To make the page a blog post page, follow these steps

  1. Go to the WordPress dashboard → Settings → Reading .
  2. Under Your homepage displays , select “A static page (select below)” .
  3. In the Posts page dropdown, select your Blog page .
  4. Go to the WordPress ->Cornerstone->Theme Options->Blog
    Set the Style and Layout from here.

Please note that if you set any page as your Blog page, you will not be able to edit it using the Cornerstone builder, since it is an archive page and cannot be edited directly in Cornerstone.

Alternatively, since you have the Pro theme, you can go to Cornerstone → click the plus icon → Blank → Archive Layout → Create .

Then:

  • Enter a title for the Archive Layout.
  • Go to the Template icon.
  • Select Themeco → Archive Layout .
  • Click Add to import the blog template or design it using the Cornerstone element.
  • Go to the Settings tab.
  • Open Assignment → Conditions .
  • Set the condition to assign the layout to the Blog page: Blog is being viewed.

This will render the layout according to your design, and that is how you can edit the Blog page layout using the Cornerstone Layout Builder in Pro. Please remember that the Layout Builder is only available in the Pro theme, not in the X theme.


Hope it helps
Thanks
