SOLVED How to Assign Override to Wordpress Home Page (Latest Posts)

    • Hi All,

      I feel like this has probably been answered somewhere else before, but for the life of me, I haven't been able to find it.

      I'm trying to assign a Gantry override to Wordpress' Home Page (I'm going with latest posts instead of a static page.). I need the default theme to be what you see once you've clicked into a post, which means I need an override for the actual blog feed itself. I've tried adding a menu item that points to the base url, and assigning the override to that, but that hasn't worked for some reason.

      I need the home page to be the most recent blog posts, so I cannot switch it to a static page unfortunately.

      Anyone know how to assign an override to the Home page when it's set to latest posts?

      Any help would be super appreciated.

      Thanks!

    • Hi Damir,

      Is there a way for me to securely message you the details? I've created an Administrator user for you to use, but I'd prefer not to post it publicly.

      Thanks!

    • Hi Damir,

      Sorry for getting back to you so much later. I got pulled off the project for awhile, and am just getting back to it.

      I've looked back through the setup, and realized that there is a 'Template Page Types' section in gantry that you can assign overrides to. One of which was 'home page'. Before I had been trying to assign the override by creating a custom menu item with the link to the home page and trying to assign the override to that. By switching to the 'home page' template page type, I was able to get the override to effect the home page while it was set to latest posts.

      Again, thank you so much for your willingness to review this for me, and my apologies for getting back to you so late.

      Thank you!
