Hi,
I’ve installed a premade website (Downtown Magazine Pro) and am trying to connect categories to the sections you have on the home page.
I removed all the posts and created posts named 1-6 so that I could see where the posts showed up on ‘All Categories’, but this has confused me more.
As you can tell, I’m confused right now ?
I’ve created a screenshot so that my explanation below makes more sense.

Some of the sections seem to be showing things correctly, but not all of them, and I can’t see in the settings why that is.
BREAKING NEWS
I see this is in two sections, but for some reason the top section shows 4 posts ago, and then the main bottom section shows them from the most recent first.
Is there a way to have the first section show the most recent, then that second section show from the next one? So the top section would be post 6, then the next section would start with post 5?
MARKETING
This seems to start on post 4, which is 3 posts ago. How can I get this to show from the most recent post?
TECHNOLOGY
This shows 2 posts from the most recent, then 3 posts from the most recent. Is it possible to have the bottom row start from post 4, so it continues as a full section.
Hello @joema!
Yes, you can use the post limit and the offset features. Check the documentation:
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/
If you have 2 flex blocks with the same settings and they are displaying the same posts, then you can use an offset and a limit for the flex blocks. For example: 1 block with the limit posts: 2 and the second one with the limit posts: 2 and offset: 2, if you would like the 3rd one then you set limit posts: 2 and offset 4, etc. They have many settings and you can use a filter.
In the tagdiv composer, you can delete and add any elements you need and change the settings to display and filter your articles as you want.
Thank you!
Thank you, and happy that what I wrote made sense, as I was confusing myself 🙂
