Hi,
Can you please watch this very short video and give me instructions if what I am asking is possible?
Hello!
A workaround there could be to use a flex block 1 there with limit 1 for the big block and use a filter. And in the second part you can add another flex blocks. The offset value can help you with multiple blocks with the same feature. For example, the first block can not have an offset, but the second block can have an offset of 1, or how many posts display the first block, and they are showing the next latest, for example, and not the same post. Documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/ ; You can use this option: https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles/, so you won’t see double posts anymore.
Check the settings of a flex block here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
You can also create custom modules. More info here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/modules-builder-newspaper-theme/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-builder-flex-loop-builder/

Thank you!
Unfortunately, the “Flex Box 1” is not going to be an option for us.
Is there not a way to split a Big grid so one article space can work independently?
Is there a way to get the Big Grid Flex 1 element to show only one article instead of 2?
What about the “Sort Order” settings shown in the screen shot? Link here:https://wilsoncoun1stg.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Screenshot-2025-03-31-at-2.42.23 PM.png
See where it says most popular 7 days?
How is this turned on? Is an additional plugin needed? If so, where do I get the plugin?
Hello!
It’s already written there how to activate that option. You must activate it in the Newspaper -> Theme panel -> Block Settings -> 7 Days Post Sorting. More info here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/
Thank you!
Hi Bettina,
I tested the Popular Sort feature. Can you please watch this short video demonstrating the questions I have? There seems to be some inconsistency.

Hello!
Make sure there is no offset on the block (General tab): https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/. Leave the field empty with no space or value.
To test if everything is set as it should on your website, you can access the article and check if the post view counter is increasing. Ensure you have the single post view shortcode in the single cloud template. Those options are based on the post views from WordPress. Unfortunately, if this is not working, something is not activated for post views or is interfering there. Unfortunately, we can not collect the views before all the options are active if the post views haven’t worked.

I do not recommend Jetpack. I recommend WP Rocket as a well-optimized cache plugin, but Jetpack is a need for that option. I think this is the right plugin: https://app.screencast.com/KQcrrxBmDXpnA, which has a stats module.
Thank you!
