Hi
I am creating pages using the news template amongst others. When the demo is installed i can see the big grid on the top of the page. Looking at the filter i see it is pulling from all categories. I change the filter to pull only items with one of the ‘real’ categories from my site and nothing shows. Is there something i am missing? I am only testing the site so i have not activated the licence yet. Does that have any bearings? I also deinstalled the demo and again the same behaviour. In short regardless of what category filter i use (including all categories when no demo installed) The big grid does not appear. I inspect the source and i can see the div placeholder but no javascript saying how many items have been filtered… (which is visible when in demo mode)
I have the latest newspaper theme and visual composer downloaded from your site.
Thanks
Amir
Hello Amir,
Most likely, you do not have posts in those categories. A block is meant to show posts, not categories. If you filter a specific category, the block will look for posts that have the specified category tag.
If there are no posts within that category, the block will not have anything to display. Please make sure you have posts to display. Try a different filter like the latest posts of all categories so that the block will grab all posts in your site and see if they appear.
Thank you!
Hi
Thanks for your response. Sorry if i was not clear. I meant when i choose a category i do not see any posts from that category showing. And there are posts in the categories that i choose…
Ah i figured it. It was to do with sort order… Thanks!
