In homepage, where is the block1, block2, etc.. there is a way to shown a page and not a category of post?

And in the big slider?

Thank you 🙂

To make this possible first you have to make a page and name it “Homepage”

After you do that then you have to go in WP settings,reading and on the top where it say “Front page displays” you will choose the page you made called “Homepage”

Now with all that out the way you only have to go in to pages and look for that page you made called “Homepage” and click on the edit botton and in there it will show you how to build a home page with blocks 1,2,3,4 etc…

To learn how go to this link https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/

and then look for “Home Page and Templates” and it will teach you all you need to know…

Ok sorry, probably i’ve missed something in my previous post.

I have already an homepage, already filled with block and everything I need.

What I’m asking for is: there is a way to show a page instead of a post inside the blocks?

I don’t think so. Most of these modules are setup to show “posts” (articles, news, etc.) as on a normal newspaper or magazine website, and not “pages” which are more often where you would have info such as “about us” or “privacy policy.”

However, some people have created custom modules, and there might be a way to load “pages” vs posts in a module, however most of the modifiers such as ‘by date’ or ‘latest’ don’t apply to pages, as they do with posts, where often things are listed in a numerical order you have to specify in each page you create.

There is actually a built-in way. See my answer here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/is-it-possible-to-show-pages-in-blocks/

Chris’s point about numerical order to help filter your pages is probably better than the date published one, if the block picks that up. (And the author trick would only apply if you generally exclude author functionality from your pages, as we happen to do on our site. Also, I just tested the block author filter and it seems to only lists those with Administrator role…)
