Hello, can you write something more about this new option?
Hello @mediax!
For example, add a flex block in a post, go to the filter tab of the element’s settings, and from the dropdown category filter, you can choose between: Single – More from author, Single – Related by category, Single – Related from tags.
So, for example, “Related from tags” is displaying articles/posts that have the same tags as the one you are currently viewing. You can also select Related and sort it as Random, for example.
Please keep in mind that in order for the flex block to work, it must be placed in a post template.
You can build a sidebar with the TagDiv Composer. Steps:
1. Insert one new row (or delete an existing one).
2. Divide into two columns (2/3 + 1/3).
3. You can add whatever element you want into the second column and consider it a sidebar.
If you do not mean this, then please let me know exactly, with more information (screenshots or videos), what you need to achieve there, so I can help you efficiently.
Thank you!

Hello @mediax!
For flex blocks, there are some special filters for single template. Read all about it here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hi,
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/Big Grid Flex and set the filter to “Category -Current category” => https://i.imgur.com/7P99qx0.png and this is why the block will display posts for each category.
Thank you!
Hello.
Is it possible to dynamically get the category for a flex block? I want to save a flex block layout as a template, then have the filter category selected automatically, either based on the page name, or a custom field.
I know I can do it manually, add flex block on each page and select the proper category, but since there are going to be many pages, having the selection automatic would speed up the process a lot
HI,
I’m trying to set my first post block on the left (resources.news), I’d like to see a specific post but it seems impossible; I set the filters but in reality they don’t seem to work. Could you give us some help?
Hi,
I think you are referring to all the possibilities of how a flex block can look, unfortunately, it is not like that because the possibilities are far too many.
But if you want, you can take from the cloud the flex blocks you like the most – https://i.imgur.com/ZFqRTeL.png – https://i.imgur.com/BYblsoH.jpg
Thank you!
Hi,
What are you referring to I think it is a page of date/archives – https://i.imgur.com/s1YpMh3.png
This is a special template, what you can do is use a posts loop or a flex block.
Thank you!
is there a way , somewhere to see all Flex Blocks ? not from the editor.
Hello,
You can import a blank template and design it with tagdiv composer as you want with Flex Block and posts loop blocks.
Thank you!
Hello!
The default blog page can’t be customized with the TagDiv Composer. You need to create a new page called home, edit it with the TagDiv Composer and there you can add posts loop or flex blocks in order to display your posts.
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria, would it be possible to post from multiple Category filters on one Element, for example from Flex block 1 and so on?. Thanks
Hello
I have a question please, I have newspaper theme in English and WPML translation to French and German.
The homepage blocks on the English version – all work correctly.
The homepage Flex Block 1 on the translated versions of the homepage do not show any posts when you choose a category filter. I tried removing the blocks and adding again – does not help.
Can you please help me understand what to look for to be able to show posts filtered by category in Flex Block 1 in the translated versions of the homepage please?
Many thanks!
Hello,
If you using the Flex Block or Big Grid Flex in the layout is the option “Show date” and you can choose to hide => https://www.screencast.com/t/6UPXQbiTO2
You can remove the Single Post Date from the template, select with tagDiv Composer and with a right-click you can delete => https://i.imgur.com/GNzcGmJ.jpg , or selecting the element and with drag & drop place into the deleting red zone from the bottom right of the page => https://i.imgur.com/vkQVCjn.jpg this change will be apply to all posts that use that template.
Thank you!
Hi,
Our theme is based on thumbs, so regardless of the image size chosen, it will be a thumb. What I can recommend is to go for the thumb which represents full image size – https://i.imgur.com/qoCm7dU.png – https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hello,
If you are referring to changing the limit posts for Big Grid Flex, then, unfortunately, you can’t do it.
Some blocks have this grid layout, others no -> https://i.imgur.com/TbKLIzW.png
Thank you!
Hello,
Is there a way to ensure the thumbnails in Flex Blocks resize the featured post image instead of cropping them?
Hello Patrick,
You can set the layout of the row in three columns, and you can set on each column a width -> https://prnt.sc/KIATcBeyFqQV. The cumulate % need to be 100% in each row and inner row.
You can find more details here

Thank you!
Hi everyone, I set my row on three columns of equal size, when I go to place the two blocks (central and on the right) I have no margin problem, but when I go to insert the customized Flex Block, it aligns to left to full width and I can’t detach it slightly from the margins like the other blocks, can you tell me how I can do it? I made a copy of the block below, and saw that it sticks out regardless of the margins above the line, so I guess it’s some wrong setting of the blocc. I hope I was clear, thanks! I await some help.
Please guide me how to do this:
If you use cloud templates, then there is a workaround:
Delete the custom title of that block, add an “inline text” element, and there you can have a title and also some text.
Where am I supposed to go and edit the flex block to delete the custom title and add an inline text element.
Hello,
These are the paths => wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/td_config.php => https://i.imgur.com/bQpMgSf.png and this for flex block 1wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/modules/td_module_flex_1.php
Also, please check this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-change-the-size-of-thumbs-on-moduleblock/
Thank you!
Hello @central!
Flex block is not a template. A flex block is a block. Read more about it here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hello,
Yes, you need to use a custom code css to hide the first module.
For example for Big Grid Flex 9, you can display 5 posts, but you need to hide two modules .
You can use this code for big grid flex 9 .td_block_big_grid_flex_9 .td_module_flex_6
{
display: none;
}
Please set this code in the theme panel > custom code> advance css > phone section and will be applied only on a mobile or if you want to apply also on a desktop only in custom code -> custom css.
Thank you!
