I would like to add featured/top posts at the bottom of single post page.
Is it possible?
Should I create child theme for this?
If yes, how do I add featured posts in specific style to a template?
Shortcode? PHP code?
Hello,
Unfortunately our theme does not support featured posts. You can however create a featured category and add your posts to it, then add a block in visual composer on the specific post you want it displayed. You can activate visual composer on posts from the plugin settings: http://screencast.com/t/V4d9MhrFxr
if you do not want to do this for every post in particular, you can edit the theme files and edit the specific post template you use and add a function to the file called do_shorctode. This will add a specific block you set to it on every post that uses that particular template you edit. They can be used in the child theme as well.
For example you can create your block in visual composer on a dummy page and get the shortcode for it: http://screencast.com/t/02ccgJ2Q8mN then get the shortcode for the block in classic mode/text mode
Then you can edit the post template from the files: http://screencast.com/t/FBgdVg39o
example: <?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_3 category_id="2"][/vc_column][/vc_row]');?>
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Thanks, it did help.
