Need Assistance with Flex Block Category Filter

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi. I need help getting a flex block to show only one category. If I select “all categories” (the default option) it displays a post as expected. But if I select a specific category, it says “no posts” and will not display any posts, even though we do have posts with the specific category assigned. Can you explain what we are doing wrong and how to get the block to display posts from a specific category?

I am including a link to screenshots showing the filter settings and the resulting display that is rendered when “all categories” is selected in the category filter and also attached screenshots showing the filter settings and resulting display when we select “travel” in the category filter. We have also included a screenshot of the posts page to show that there are posts with the “travel” category assigned.

Thanks in advance for your help working this out.

Hi,
What you should check is the offset from the blocks. When an offset is set, this will skip that number of articles – https://prnt.sc/f1ngsuJAHQPR. If you have a number set and you do not want any offset to apply to that block, just remove the number and let the field be empty. For more details you can check our guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ https://prnt.sc/Ewxgk6ZSvnvk

That was indeed the issue. Apparently, the Downtown Pro template sets that to 25 by default. Thank you so much for your help!
