hi there
I left a message on the forums and Simion told me to come here.
Just a quick question.
I want the excepts to show under the heading as in this image.

Basically the closest I get is this –

Can you help me customise block 2 to include the image and excerpt under the heading?

thanks in advance,
Harry

Hello Harry!

I recommend you to use a flex block for this and you have some settings in the Layout tab from where you can choose to show or not excerpts, image, date, author,etc.
Please check the guides step by step here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ and here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/excerpts-introduction/

Thank you!

i tried the flex boxes, didnt help much.
They don’t let you move the title above the image, or add excerpts to 2nd module.

thanks anyway

Hello Harry!

You can achieve something like this: https://www.screencast.com/t/LNgffR5jbp
Every block can be a flex block or you can display how many posts you want in a flex block.

Thank you!
