Hello,
I have set as home page the latest posts but I don’t know how to set a grid in the home page as I have for the category page.
You can see at the following link my category configuration and the screenshot of the category page.
I’d like to have the same thing in my home page but I don’t know how to

Hi,

Using Visual composer – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ you can create your own pages with the elements and the structure you want, and then set a static page as the homepage – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ Here is a tutorial about the blocks used to create your pages – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/ to help you understand their functionality. For example you could create a page with a big grid on top – https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/ and latest articles below – https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates-2/ if you would like to keep the blog look.

Thanks

Yes thanks,
of course is possible to build it through a static page, but as it is possible to automatize a grid in the category page i thought it was possible to make the same in the home page used as lastest post.
This should be a nice improvement for the next update

thanks anyway

Hi,

Well there is a way actually in that case. You could use a do_shortcode to insert a block or big grid in your blog page. First get the shortcode for the element you want – https://www.screencast.com/t/sjVAkPkp4eChttps://www.screencast.com/t/2DeamXzFMKT1 then insert it in the index.php file located in the theme folder – https://www.screencast.com/t/jnuloZiEtqg with this result – https://www.screencast.com/t/NO3pj4kbwdCd
This is the code used

<?php echo do_shortcode ('your shortcode here'); ?>

Thanks
