Hi,
I need to create some posts like “4 Greatest…”,”Top 5 Things…”, etc.
So I want to insert a block in my post. The block would show fx. 4 posts inline horizontal: A small image, the post headline and a small excerpt for each of the 4 posts. And when you then click on them, you are taken to that post – when has already been written and published on my site.
But how do I do that?
I am using a cloud template and Composer.
I have tried with short code, but that only show the code as text.
Hope you understand what I am trying to do.
Cheers,
Hi,
If you are using a shortcode please set it in a column text or text with title element in code/text zone – https://imgur.com/DSSni9j
Also, if you want to set blocks with articles inline inside your post content you can check this guide: How to insert a block inside the content of a post
Thank you!
But from what I understand and can see, this is done on a template level. I would have to change my cloud template, right?
What about all the posts where I don’t want to have inline blocks/content then?
Will it not look wrong then?
Is there not a way to add a block to a post, just like I add an image or table?
Hi,
If you want to have this inline blocks/content then you can duplicate the single post template and set on the duplicate the inline blocks/content and this will be manually set per articles were you want to use it.
If you want you can also past the shortcode code directly in a post and us ethe shortcode or text mode.
Thank you!
Well, that is what’s not working!
I would rather use the shortcode option. But when I paste it into a post, it only show the code as text – it does not render the code to a block.
Hi,
Please try like this:
