Hello,

You can stretch the row and set the dimension that you want.
We have some settings for the rows and different stretch sizes: https://www.screencast.com/t/bsbB5P97A

Thank you!

Hello,

Normally, if Make My Photographer Website is a category, then the Posts Loop will display the posts from that category.
For the category template, if you have set a posts loop then will display all posts in this category or you can use Flex Block 1 and set the filter to “Category -Current category” => https://i.imgur.com/7P99qx0.png

Thank you!

Hi,

For changing the height and width edit the Big Grid Flex and in layout, you have the option “Image width (percent)”, “Image height (percent)” on each module from Big Grid => https://www.screencast.com/t/7cARFdZCw -> https://www.screencast.com/t/mJww3fVX

Thank you!

Hi GanaAdhikar,
First I suggest to try the flex block 1 and 2 -> https://i.imgur.com/HecGZeA.png, those have special option that allow you to create different layouts, after that you can simply save the shortcodes -> https://i.imgur.com/HMsArnD.jpg
I hope this will help you!

Hello @joema!

Yes, you can use the post limit and the offset features. Check the documentation:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/
If you have 2 flex blocks with the same settings and they are displaying the same posts, then you can use an offset and a limit for the flex blocks. For example: 1 block with the limit posts: 2 and the second one with the limit posts: 2 and offset: 2, if you would like the 3rd one then you set limit posts: 2 and offset 4, etc. They have many settings and you can use a filter.
In the tagdiv composer, you can delete and add any elements you need and change the settings to display and filter your articles as you want.

Thank you!

Hello @sarahp!

I’ve checked your website and I can see your header and menu. Please install and activate the Newsletter plugin from Newspaper-> Plugins. You can edit and add a flex block instead of block 4. Or if you need block 4, then you also need to have the Standard Pack plugin(not recommended).

Thank you!

Okay thank you. I was able to uncheck them. Apologies for the hassle, I do love the idea of Mega Menu, but I wish I had more flexibility with it. At any rate, thanks for the help.

Hello @dc1!

For the moment, the only solution will be to set a custom link to a page -> https://i.imgur.com/2Qql0Yu.png on that page you can set the loop or flex element and filter it after the CTP

We’re sorry for the inconvenience!

Thank you for understanding!

Hello @edragon!

The best option is to use the TagDiv Composer, which is easier and more customizable to create a block in your sidebar. You can use flex blocks instead.

Thank you!

Hello Mauri!

There are no filters for that element. Try to use a flex block instead: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/

Thank you!

I recently had similar issues and found a solution to the problem.

Flex box elements using AJAX to pull in posts were causing major issues with database queries.

I changed to the post loop for the main content area, and removed any blocks using ajax from the footer.

All performance stats on the site dropped by 50% pretty much right away.

Our site has about 100,000 posts and around 500,000 unique visitors per month.

For anyone else having these issues:
Don’t use any blocks / elements with ajax to pull in post data unless you absolutely have to.

Looks like the flex block using ajax was absolutely the problem.

Hello @romi!

Please make sure you have the Standard Pack plugin installed and activated. Although, I recommend you to use the new flex blocks because they can be customized as you like.

Thank you!

Hi Bettina,

Thanks but you send me a screen shot of the image adjustment in flex blocks, which require I link to posts on our site. I need this image to link to an external website, so I cannot use flex blocks or other TagDiv blocks.

So I am trying to adjust the image in an image + text element, which does not have the same image adjustment options.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Kaitlin

Hello @Maurafarah!

Make sure you use the latest update of the theme and the TagDiv Composer. You can use the posts loop element or flex block element: https://forum.tagdiv.com/posts-loop/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/

Thank you!

Hello @zelda!

A more elegant method is to override the child theme. You need to take all the code of the flex block 2 from 4386 to 6268 lines, make the changes, and change the word “add” to “update”: https://prnt.sc/sbzdlfUovced

Thank you!

Hello @Zelda!

You need to add the new thumbnail size for the flex block too. Edit the td-composer\legacy\Newspaper\includes\td_config.php file and add your new thumbnail size after 4976 line name => variable.

Thank you!

Hello @kjogedartclub !

In order to reduce the space there, please choose to add a new element above the flex or grid called “Title”. Delete the custom title from the block. Every element has a CSS tab where you can change the margin, padding, and apply 0 or a negative margin: https://prnt.sc/njsQ7dD71kA-

Thank you!

How do I change the spacing between my Title element and my Grid block and Flex block? I think there are too much space from my title (Seneste Nyheder) and down to the Big Grid and from the title (Flere Nyheder) to the Flex Block

Take a look here: https://www.kdc-dart.dk/

TIA

Update: I found that for some reason the Flex Block 1 default settings for the Review and Author settings were “undefined” and when I set them, it didn’t seem to save properly, so I deleted and adding again, and that seems to fix, so maybe when originally created it didn’t save something. Maybe this will be helpful in diagnosing the issue for others.

Hello Kaitlin!

You can adjust the picture there: https://prnt.sc/VjoVzQFySHie. Please check the guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ Ideally, the texts should have the same length, so this issue won’t affect the other article/post to display nicely.

Thank you!

Hello,

So my organisation publishes in academic journals as well as on our site and I’m having an issue highlighting these external links in a nice way (it’s not an RSS feed issue as discussed here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/grid-with-external-links-content/).

I’ve read on the forum that there’s no way to get external links into blocks, but ideally we’d like the external links to look similar to the way we display self-published research. So for example our self published list looks like this: https://snipboard.io/ponHFM.jpg, using FlexBlock 1.

I’ve tried to sort of recreate it using “image plus text” but I can’t find image alignment options so it looks like of wonky, like this: https://snipboard.io/6ixoyb.jpg.

Are there any ways to get external links to display nicely within the theme? Or any way I can wrangle the image feature to look kind of like the blocks?

Thanks,
Kaitlin

Hello @poldino!

If you want to modify the file of the flex block 1, then you can integrate it in a child theme. If you want to change the link of the read more button: https://prnt.sc/51ACEAF76kD5, then all your posts will have the same link. If you need it differently, then this will require custom work which is not covered by the support team.

Thank you!

Ok.
Which element / module can I use to pull in the latest posts using a different style of pagination?
I am currently using Flex Block 1 and i dont see an option for non-ajax pagination
