ADD HTML WIDGET BENEATH FEATURED IMAGE IN POSTS IN SPECIFIC CATEGORY

SAMPLE POST: https://tonylaubach.net/chase-log-june-21-2023/

Greetings! I am hoping to get some pointers with this awesome theme. I am hoping to add a HTML widget that will contain a table filled with information, most of that drawn from custom meta fields, beneath the featured image of posts in a certain category. The example link above shows one such post, with a note (SPACE RESERVED FOR CHASE STATS) where I would like this widget to go.

For this example, the post category would be the parent category, ‘Storm Chase Logs’ where this HTML widget would only show up.

My question, how can I add this to the template for these posts? I have tried multiple coding options, but I feel like I am over-complicating things. I am hoping for an easy solution. And I feel like there is one, but I am just too ‘newb’ to find it.

Thank you in advance 🙂 Really excited to utilize this theme! Appreciate ya!

Hello,

For what you want to achieve, I recommend using Cloud templates -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/design-post-pages-using-cloud-library-templates/ after you can set your HTML code in the single post template using RAW HTML element and assign this template for the categories you want to have it in Theme Panel -> Categories -> https://i.imgur.com/oT72YcT.png and for the rest of the posts, you can set globally the template without this widget https://i.imgur.com/g88CK9u.png

Thank you!

Awesome, thank you. That’s a good start. Are their in-depth tutorials on how to use this? For instance, somewhere I can go to learn how to change the space between rows/columns? Basically a detailed “how-to” guide so I can make tweaks to fit the vision I am trying to make?

Hello,

Please check this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/different-logo-in-categorypage/; the same steps are for duplicating any template.
Also, for rows please check those guides > https://tagdiv.com/flexibility-rows-columns-newspaper-theme/

Thank you!
