Hi,

looks like Offset posts is not working for Posts loop in mobile template (not mobile theme) for Newspaper (I have only tried it there). The feature is working fine on the front page but for different type of block.

Is that a known issue or am I doing something wrong?

Just to add a bit more context.

I have 3 Posts Loop modules on the same page. Each of them have a Limit post number set to 4. First module has the Offset posts field empty. The second module has it set to 5 and the third module has it set to 9. However they all show the same 4 articles.

Newspaper version 10.4; Prebuilt Website: Gadget Pro; Mobile Theme and AMP are not installed; WP version 5.7.2; PHP: 7.4.18

Hello,

Unfortunately, you can use only one Posts Loop on the page (not more), if add more elements “Posts Loop” then these will inherit the settings made for the last “Posts Loop” element.
So, you can try to use flex block, when you can set the offset or a Big Grid Flex.

Thank you!

Thanks Anamaria,

The reason I was using Posts Loop is that it is for a Category page and the Posts Loop selects the correct category for the articles. Is that also possible for flex blocks / big grid flex?

Hello !

Yes, and from the filtering options you can make that the flex will only pull content from the category that it is in: https://www.screencast.com/t/DnUwmsANV3r
