Hello @Southview92 !

Unfortunately, you can’t have two different posts on a single template. But you can add any post with a flex block, for example, and when you click on the article title, it will lead you to the single template of that article with its content.

Thank you!

are there any plans to do this. Lots of themes do have this where you can have the main article and then underneath you have another article. at the moment i have this which looks very bad. i am using the flox but it does not show the paragraph spaces.

on another note are you going to fix this where the flex shows the paragraph spaces instead of it all jumbled together. see here https://www.in2town.co.uk/chester-news/chester-hoole-pupils-enjoy-cycling-proficiency-success/

Hello @southview92 !

The flex block can show only the excerpt. Another workaround there could be to use a module template that can be built custom and displayed with the help of an element called Flex Block Builder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/modules-builder-newspaper-theme/. Add an inline text in your custom module to display the paragraph like this: https://app.screencast.com/FdiRIpFNwZL9t
Also, you can try to add new paragraphs to your excerpts in posts and display them in flex blocks: https://app.screencast.com/zWp2SUrlS1Zbv

I hope that helps you!

Thank you!
