Hi,
I have some kind of a dictionary on my website. I want to place a “Posts” grid on my homepage that will show different pages randomly (thumbnail + title, no extra meta). Unfortunately, I have made all these pages as ‘pages’ and not ‘posts’, and I also have different type of pages, so I can’t really set the grid to show the dictionary entries alone (without it showing pages of different parent-page). Is there any way to set the grid to show only a specific parent page? that specific grid will only be on the homepage, there will be no other grids of this kind on the website (i.e. other grid showing other pages of a different parent page), so if its possible to “lock” the pages grid to only show a specific parent page, it is fine by me.

Thanks!

Hi, Catherine!

I’m sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

There is no built-in way to do this currently. However, with some custom PHP code snippets, you can achieve it. Here’s a sample code for reference:

add_filter( 'kadence_blocks_pro_posts_grid_query_args', 'override_post_grid_order' );
function override_post_grid_order( $args ) {
  if ( 'EVENTS_CPT_SLUG' === $args['post_type'] ) {
    $args['meta_key'] = 'ACF_FIELD_META_KEY';
    $args['orderby'] = 'VALUE_HERE';
    $args['order'] = 'DESC';
  }
  return $args;
}

Please note that you should substitute the following accordingly:

• EVENTS_CPT_SLUG
• ACF_FIELD_META_KEY
• VALUE_HERE

If you aren’t familiar with custom codes, we recommend looking for a developer that can implement this for you.

Lastly, you may also create a feature request on this page for built-in options in querying posts depending on custom fields. However, we cannot give an estimated date for when this will be implemented.

I hope this helps, and let us know if we can assist you further.

Kind regards,
Karla

Hi everybody,

for a website, with about 10 posts for events per year, I want to create a Post Grid/Carousel that only displays the category “Event” chronologically.

But the date referred to should not be the publication of the post, but the date of the event. For this I have defined an ACF field (date picker).

How could I then show only events that are in the future or those that have already passed?

I would be infinitely grateful for your help. Thanks in advance and many greetings
Catherine

Hi there!

The pagination option is available for the Post Grid/Carousel block which is included in the Kadence Blocks Pro add-on. If you are using the “Posts” block, the option isn’t available.

Please let us know if we can help you further with this.

Kind regards,
Karla

Thanks Karla

I think the advanced query loop would be the solution, it’s great that’s under development. Two big features that would come in really useful would be the option to display the posts as a carousel (unless the advanced slider could be used within the query loop. Perhaps adding the post template inside the slider, I will have to try that). And also the option to choose a taxonomy as the source instead of a post, so that you could display a grid of categories. Also, if it’s not already there the option to choose related posts on the filter so that you could use the advanced loop block within an element and then use that to display at the bottom of a blog post for example.

Hi there!

Yes, it is a workaround since there is no built-in option to change it yet.

If you have the Kadence Blocks Pro addon, you can use the Dynamic Content option and build your own post-grid loop template using the Query Loop block of Gutenberg.

There is a block that is being worked on called, the “Advanced Query” block but there is still no estimated date for when that will be released.

“Could even add the ability to loop through taxonomies too!”

Could you describe this in more detail? The Post Grid/Carousel block already has the option to filter posts using taxonomy – https://share.getcloudapp.com/Kou92wwA.

On the other hand, if you want a grid view of taxonomies, there is an existing feature request for it. You may add your vote here – https://www.kadencewp.com/kadence-blocks/feature-requests/taxonomy-block/.

Please let us know if we can help you further with this.

For new support topics, please create a new one.

Kind regards,
Karla

Karla, this seems awfully hacky, no? Ideally we need a Kadence rework of the Query Loop block which could replace the post grid/carousel. Could even add the ability to loop through taxonomies too! Is this on the roadmap at all?

Hi Chito,

Thanks for getting back on this. However, this is not what I am looking to achieve. With the post/grid carousel, there is no option to add author image/gravatar.

I just want to move the post meta in the “posts” block to below the content. See the screenshot of what Im looking to achieve. https://share.getcloudapp.com/8LuqKeYz

The code in the previous message works for the archived posts. Is there anyway to alter this code to include the “posts” block?

Thanks for your help.

Hi there,

Thanks for writing.

There’s a premium block (Post Grid/Carousel) that will help you achieve it. Here’s a screenshot: https://share.getcloudapp.com/JrupBvBL

You will need the Kadence Blocks Pro plugin to be able to use that block.

I hope this helps, and let us know how we can help further.

Kind regards,
Chito

Hi, @likeforall28!

I’m sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Please note that the Post Grid/Carousel block is a block included with the Kadence Blocks Pro add-on – https://www.kadencewp.com/kadence-blocks/documentation/pro-addon/kadence-blocks-post-grid-carousel-block/.

Kindly double-check if you have the Kadence Blocks Pro add-on installed and activated already on your website. Here’s our documentation post – https://www.kadencewp.com/help-center/docs/kadence-blocks/kadence-blocks-pro-plugin/.

If we can help you further, let us know.

Hi there.

I really like the image zoom feature on the Portfolio block, but I would like the title below the image not as an overlay. (Similar to the post grid block)

Is there a way to do that at all?

Hi, Mike!

I’m sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Could you confirm what block you’re using to show posts on a non-archive page?

If you’re using the Post Grid/Carousel block, there is a workaround but it will require custom CSS code:

1. Add a custom class “use-element” to the Post Grid/Carousel block https://share.getcloudapp.com/L1u90O6n

2. Add this custom CSS to Customizer > Additional CSS:

.site .use-element .kt-blocks-post-grid-item-inner-wrap {
   display: none;
} 

The CSS will hide the default content of the Post Grid/Block in the front end. We will hide it since we are going to use a Hooked Element to display the layout you want.

3. Duplicate the Element that you used in the Loop Item template.

4. Change the Placement of this element to “Custom Hook”, and put kadence_blocks_post_loop_end – https://share.getcloudapp.com/WnuDQl6L

5. Change the Display settings to “Show On” > Single Pages > Individually > Select Items > select the page where you would like to use the Post Grid/Carousel block. This is important, if you will not set it to this, then the Element will be displayed to all Post Grid blocks on your website.

I hope this helps. Please let us know how we can help you further.

Kind regards,
Karla

The issue of broken Post Grid/Carousel block when selecting Individual posts has been fixed with the Kadence Blocks Pro version 1.7.28.

If we can assist anyone with the pro blocks, you may send a ticket on this page.

Hi there,

On this post, the table of contents is set up to have an orange list color and an orange box shadow. Also, Post Grid Carousel is supposed to have a box shadow (like further down the page where I have a post grid block linking to my Southern Utah post). When I’m in edit mode it’s all correct, or if I look at things on the same browser where I’m logged into WordPress. But if I look via a different browser or on my cell phone, these things aren’t happening. It’s only on this one post. When I first published it, these things were correct. They’ve since stopped working I guess.

Also on my home page, Post Grid Carousel is not showing up as a carousel, it’s a grid. Again this is only if I look on a browser where I’m not logged into WordPress.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Claire

Hi

Just to be clearer, I am using a page with the “Post / Grid Carousel” and have enabled the settings as follows:

Select Posts Type: Recipes
Display Filter: enabled

However, I can see from this post that the filter will only actually filter the posts that are visible on the page – it’s not an actual category button as such. So that query is solved…

However, here is another questions:

How do I show all posts from the Custom Post Archive (Recipes) using the infinite scroll technique? At the moment, it seems you have to set “Number of items” but I want all Recipes to show as I scroll down the page. If that is not possible with the Post Grid Carousel, what’s the best way to show a customised archive page (where infinite scroll should work)?

Hey there, my team is also having this issue with the post grid carousel, our workaround for now on live pages, is to duplicate it after we get the error, and then hit select posts on the duplicated block – which then loads the post list. Make our update, remove the corrupted block and update the page.

Hopefully, a solution/fix is released soon. 🙂

Hi, Brian!

I’m sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

The spacing between the header & footer and the content area is the top and bottom content spacing. You will see the global value for it in Customizer > General > Layout > Content Top & Bottom Spacing.

On the other hand, there are options to only disable that for posts or pages only. Watch this screen recording – https://share.getcloudapp.com/yAuJ1nJd.

Also, if you want to disable it for a specific post only, you can go to the Page/Post Settings – https://www.kadencewp.com/kadence-theme/knowledge-base/customize-settings/how-to-setup-page-post-settings/.

Regarding the space between the content and sidebar – this is a default from our theme’s styles. There is no option to adjust it. You can add custom CSS in Customizer > Additional CSS to adjust it:

@media screen and (min-width: 1025px) {
.has-sidebar .content-container {grid-gap: 20px;}
}

I hope this helps, and let us know if we can assist you further.

Karla

Hi there,

Every time I try to add or edit a Post Grid Carousel block, I get an error that says “this block has encountered an error and cannot be previewed”. Screenshot attached. What I’m doing is clicking to choose posts “individually” instead of by “query”. The popup box comes up, loads for awhile, then never brings up any posts to pick from and instead glitches out and gives me this error message. I have tried this on multiple different posts and I also waited a few days in case it was just a weird fluke last week, but it’s still happening.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Claire

Another issue with the Grid / Carousel and Post Taxonomy block, when selecting taxonomy tags, not all tags are showing up, only 11 of them even though I have 19 tags registered/created.
