How to edit blog page

Hello @hansbeen,

Thank you for using support forum for asking the query.

Did you try by adding post from Admin Panel > Posts > Add New and add the title, content and featured image?

And can you check if you’ve customized the blog page or not?

That does not work.
I have customized the blog page with the editor, because it contained a whole lot of example stuff. But I see no way or option to edit the blog page itself with a snippet or a featured image on the blog page, which was very easy in older themes without the editor

I have managed to add the featured image trough the “blog home” template by adding a block “featured image”. Still searching for a way to add a excerpt of the text.
in older themes (tw17) you could do that by simply adding a “read-more” in the text of the post, but that doesn’t seem tot work in tw24?

After a long search I found a way to sgow anexcerpt on the blog page, by customizing the “blog home” template with a “query loop” block.
Is there a manual or some instructions about this complicated template customizing?

Hey @hansbeen, You can find more details on the query loop documentation page.

In general, the query loop will have a ‘Post template’ block inside, which will be used to show each single post inside the loop. You can customize the post template bock with multiple blocks inside it, such as Title, Excerpt, Featured image, etc.
