Site: https://biomassrules.com/wp
I set the blog up the way it’s explained in The Guide by not selecting anything in the “Reading” section of WordPress. Then on the “Bio-Blog” page I set it so that it says “page with posts”. There are 20 blog posts already on the new site (same as in the current site: https://biomassrules.com/blog/).
Why aren’t the blog posts showing up with the new design? I tried copying/pasting one just to have a new one & it didn’t show up on the “Bio-Blog” page either. Not sure what I’m doing wrong but any help would be appreciated!
That is strange indeed.
Try creating a new test page, set the template to page with posts, leave everything else as default, and see if the posts show on that page.
When you go to Admin > Pages > “Bio-Blog” > Quick Edit >
Do you get Template : = “Page with posts” showing?
Regards!
@user I do see that it says “Page with posts” showing up when I click on Quick Edit
@scrambler I created a test page & followed your instructions. The blog posts showed up afterwards. So I deleted the “Bio-Blog” page & then created a new “Bio-Blog” page. Now the blog posts are showing up. Gremlins are hard at work!Next question: How do I get bullet points to show up on the “Recent Posts” on the right-hand sidebar? I chose the “Square Bullet List” in the Weaver Xtreme Sidebars & Layouts. But they aren’t showing up???
How do I hide the header images on the individual blog posts? I have them hidden on the “Bio-Blog” page & on all of the other pages (besides the homepage) of this site. Don’t see a universal way to hide them. Unless I have to go in and hide each one individually before I publish each & every blog post???
You have the UL Bullets turned off somewhere. Don’t know where.
As an interim measure, try inserting this CSS code and see if it will turn them on again in the meantime:
.wp-block-latest-posts.wp-block-latest-posts__list { padding-left: 0; }If still not working, please try:
.wp-block-latest-posts.wp-block-latest-posts__list { list-style-type: square; padding-left: 0; }Finally, checking Admin > Appearance > Weaver Xtreme Admin >
Main Options > Sidebars & Layout > Individual Widgets >
Widget List Bullet: ????? What is showing there?Regards.
To hide the header image on all single post pages add the rule below to the Theme Global custom CSS rule box
.single #header-image {display:none;}
@scrabler That CSS worked to hide the header. Thanks!
@user Tried both of those CSS’s & they did not do anything. Square is what I have selected (though I have tried the Circle option, too) & it still does not work. Any other suggestions?It is strange the block does not have that option, but I cant find it.
The CSS that will restore the bullet and to put in the Theme Global Custom CSS rule box is
.wp-block-latest-posts.wp-block-latest-posts__list{list-style:circle;}
@scrambler That worked! Thx!
Is there a way to make those links open in new tabs? Same question for the links on the blog page?
For the recent post in the sidebar, nothing we can do if not an option, as it requires a change in HTML. No CSS solution…
What other links are you referring to exactly?
@scrambler Can the links on the Bio-Blog page open in new tabs?
Links you add yourself can be made to do that with the HTML @user gave you.
Links generated by the theme cant unless there is s theme option to do that
FYI, after searching WP, it seems the Link Whisper plugin may be able to do what want.
“the JS script that plugin adds to your site changes all LCP links by adding
target="_blank"to all<a>elements….” See comment linkI have never used or tested that plugin, and so cannot comment on it’s behavior or other issues.
I’d suggest you do a backup of your DB before testing it, or better still, test it on a TEST SITE first.
Regards!
