Blog format for Category Page

  • Blog format for Category Page

    Posted 11 years 1 month ago
    • I hope this is a simple issue and I'm just not finding the right button.

      I like the default blog page format. It shows one Leading post and then 12 other posts in 4 columns. I found how to set this on the Default Setting page / Content / Blog View.

      What I would like is to build a page or template that can give me that same layout but use it for when I select a category of posts. I can select a category but the results come up in the regular "list" format. On my Theme Override pages I've tried adjusting the Blog View setting but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

      And on a somewhat related note, Can anyone explain in the "assignments" section what the Template Page Types are. They seem like templates and I would like to make use of them. When I create a page my only choices on the side dropdown menu for page attributes are DEFAULT and CONTACT FORM.

      Thanks!

    • Thanks so much for the response. I have just started building the site. It is full of temp pics and text but it should show you want you need to see.

      This is how the main Blog page (Articles) presents:
      http://lancelecompte.com/rocket02/?page_id=20

      This is how a Category of the Blog Page presents:
      http://lancelecompte.com/rocket02/?cat=40

      I would like the Category page to have the same format (1 leading article followed by smaller articles)

      Thanks!

    • ah okay this is a WordPress site. Please post your topics in the correct forum.

In this case the word press Metropolis forum would be that forum. www.rockettheme.com/forum/wordpress-theme-metropolis
