Hi – I can’t figure out how to customize my category pages outside of your templates. I would basically like my category pages to organize their content by the subcategories like my homepage does for my two top level categories using blocks. Is this possible?
HAVE: Homepage – Sailing & Travel Categories
WANT: Sailing – Life Aboard, Boat Projects & Gear categories
WANT: Travel – North America, South America, Caribbean and Europe categories
I can get the categories to display under the headline, but I can’t figure out how to organize the content by subcategories.
Thanks.
Hi,
The default category templates don’t have many settings, all of them are in the theme panel, for each category
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
The content will appear automatically in the top grid and the post loop below. Posts that are part of the respective category will be displayed sorted by default as latest. If I misunderstand or you have more questions, let me know.
Thanks
I have exactly the same problem here.
I would like to add image with links redirecting to subcategories instead of a list of posts like there is in a normal category page.
I created a custom page that has exactly what I want :
– a title
– a subtitle
– 3 pics with link redirecting to the subcat
– 5 most read articles
When I put it in the menu I see the page but the posts don’t have their main category showing in the breadcrumb nor they have the new page in it.
How can I get the category page like the page I designed ?
Thanks
@kgudahl, only thing I have found is to add a 301 redirect from the WP category page to your custom category page.
Not dangerous SEO wise but not a really clean option…
Hi,
@FlorentDevos A page won’t appear in the breadcrumbs as an actual category page would. But if you want specific elements to be displayed in the category pages, that is possible since you can build them with the composer. They can contain the elements you mention above.
You can create templates for each category and set them, for example start from a blank template and add only what you want in it – http://prntscr.com/nww5xs
If I misunderstand please let me know.
Thanks
