Content block -BLOG- doesn’t show blog image

    I’ve built up a series of blogs with an image on each blog. When I make a page where all the blogs can be displayed in date order and use BLOG to add to my content block, it will show all of the blogs in the correct order (with “continue reading at the bottom) but it won’t display the images from each blog. This page shows how I want the blogs to display, with each blog’s specific image next to the text. I’ve tried a number of settings but nothing seems to keep the image. I don’t have a lot of experience with Gutenberg but this seems pretty straightforward to keep the image. What setting will include the image with the first paragraph?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Sounds like what you’ve done is set the Featured image. For images on the page itself you must insert them into the page. Then click the image and left align it–or not.

    I inserted the images from the media into the page next to the text and aligned the image left. No featured image. There must be some contribution from WP that manages inserting “blog” into a content block. I dont know how to control settings for that process.

    OK, then if you have not yet set the Featured image, do so now. It is found on the same page you are editting, bottom right-hand corner.

    Thank you! I’ve not seen this information anywhere! There must be a “blog” insert into Gutenberg content block documentation somewhere but I couldn’t find anything. I’ll try this!

    Rob,
    I can’t thank you enough for your help! It was that simple, add it as the Featured Image. You have excellent knowledge about Gutenberg blocks!

    I’m not sure why there isn’t any information about posts when transitioning to Gutenberg blocks. It would be helpful to have a flow chart of how dated posts or “blogs” (as they are called when using them in blocks) are organized and managed as group features on a page. There must be other attributes for these special pages. It would be even neater if there was the ability to use icons in a sidebar next to the blog titles.
    Thanks, Matoca
