Hi,
I have created a category “Featured” for displaying in the “Big_Grid_3” block at the top of our homepage. The issue is that the article is also categorized in other sections. The block below the Big_Grid_3 is displaying these other categories. The problem is that I have duplicate posts on our homepage. Is there a better way to handle this?

Hello,
There are multiple ways to avoid duplication in our themes depending on the sorting options you choose for your blocks. The easier one is to simply activate this option: https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles/
Thank you!
What a great feature!
Is there a way to do the same on a post, with a sidebar widget? Right now, the post below, shows the same post in the widget.

Hi,
The unique articles feature will work for pages, not posts. The block widgets in the sidebars can be customized in terms of the content they display. The categories can be filtered, posts sorted etc

I have hidden the “Big_Grid_3” on mobile devices, this seems to be an issue with the unique articles. The featured articles are not being displayed in the block below “Big_Grid_3”.
Hi,
The block should display posts based on the filter set to it. I see that the block below the big grid displays post from the category IDs you entered in the filter

Only posts from those categories will be displayed in the block.
Thanks
I added the Featured category (44), but no luck. These items are still hidden on a mobile device.
Hi,
Let’s make things more clear for a better understanding. The theme creates a Featured category automatically
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/
If you want to display posts from the featured category in a block or grid, simply choose it in the category filter
– https://www.screencast.com/t/4cvioezrVA
Post will be displayed from this category, and sorted by the chosen method

If you use category IDs in the filter, posts will be displayed from all those categories, again based on the sorting used.
There is a featured sorting option that displays only featured posts from the desired categories for example
