How to create an ADDITIONAL Most Popular Page + Text Only Category Page

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi Team,

I’m nearing completion of the site to launch this weekend, but noticed that even though I mention
a most popular section on my homepage, I have nowhere to link to as it’s not really a category.

(1) I have the category layout that I would want to reuse since it’s fully 100% ready.
How do I get that to show as /most-popular/ so I can simply change the filter?

I’ve read the manual front to back, but I can’t say I recall if it was mentioned or how, or how to find it.

(2) Similarly, I want to build a text only version of the categories as an extra option for people to navigate.
So I’ll have /category/tech/ and something like /text-only/category/tech/
/category/tech/ might show 12 articles with photos. (3 columns, 4 rows)
/text-only/category/tech/ would show 100 articles without photos (2 columns, 25 rows)

Only (1) is launch critical.

How do I go about this?

Hello Chris!

1. The category templates can be assigned only to the categories. You can’t assign the category template to a regular page. What you can do instead is replicate and rebuild the layout on that regular page.

2. Please provide more information about your issue, such as screenshots or videos, so I can understand your issue or what you need to achieve in order to help you efficiently.

Thank you!

Thanks Bettina,

I’ll rebuild that page first since I’m launching tomorrow.
For the second issue I’ll provide additional details early next week.

Have a good weekend
