Hi, I used the same CSS to do a 3×3 grid as well. It works, but I have these white dots next to each photo, like bullet points. How can I get rid of that.

Great plugin by the way!

Ah, I didn’t think about that!

Turns out it’s jetpack, ruining my life.

Thanks so much!!!

Thanks soooo much for responding so fast! My website is iamallmelanin.party/blog

1. So I actually want the blog page to be my home page. When I set Front page to Static Page and Choose “Blog” AND enable page content, I get a homepage with my sidebars and footers but no blog page content…not sure what I’m doing wrong here…

2. Worked perfectly! Thanks! But now my blog page is not the same…there are no posts on it, and the header is not showing, despite it being enabled, and the grid format is gone, despite that being enabled as well.

4. Can’t test it since no posts are showing up on my blog page.

5. I’m not using a child theme, should I be???

Thanks! You guys have the best support team.

I also meant to add, under BLOG, that I don’t have any categories, and for now I don’t want any.

Is it possible to delete the “uncategorized” category? Or delete that page? For some reason the “uncategorized” category page comes up in google search results, and because it’s not listed under the PAGES tab in my dashboard I don’t know how to get rid of it.

Hallelujah!

Ok we can end this thread now.

THANK YOU

Soooo I uploaded a test photo and the header photo is working, but now I can’t get the page titles to go away… I have THEME OPTIONS > PAGE TITLE > SHOW THE PAGE TITLE BY DEFAULT set to “off.”

When I go to the Blog page and set SHOW PAGE TITLE to HIDE, the whole header photo goes away. If I turn it to SHOW; PLACE BEHIND HEADER, then the page title is visible. If I set it to DEFAULT, then again the header goes away. For all pages, the only way I’ve gotten the header photo to show is if SHOW PAGE TITLE is set to SHOW.

I even went to THEME OPTIONS > PAGE TITLE > COLOR and set it to #00ffffff in an effort to hide it through transparency….no luck there. Can you tell me the CSS to hide the page title for all pages? Or each page individually? Or where I can find that info?

Thanks a lot.

OK got it, thanks!

Hm kinda – so now there’s a blank red rectangle on the blog page, which is good, but still not my featured image. Is there another place I’m supposed to upload the header image for the blog?

Is it the same header as the home page? If so, then yes, you have solved my problem.

Hey Kevin,

Maybe there are some settings on my computer that I need to fix. I actually recall having a similar issue with a different site I have, and it turns out my viewing settings for a particular browser was the culprit. I’ll check that. In the meantime, that last part of my problem was the header photo not showing on the blog page. I have a featured photo set, but as you can see there’s nothing but the menu.

1) On the blog page here https://iamallmelanin.party/blog/ for some reason there is no image showing. On the homepage for example, there is large red rectangle where I can put a header photo. On the blog page, even though I have set a featured image, there is no image, only the menu. What can I do to fix that?

What should I do to fix this?

I just want it to look *exactly* like the demo site (it’s a very nice demo). When I remove the “width: 100%” the blog is centered in the middle of the page, but it’s not full-width. I searched the forum to find out how to make the blog page full-width with the sidebar, which is where I got that CSS from.

If you look at the BLOG-GRID-2 on the Pinnacle demo site, the blog page is full-width, has a sidebar smaller than the default size, and has blog excerpts larger than the default size. What are those dimensions? How can I get my blog site to be the same specifications?

Also thanks so much for being patient with me with this issue.

Hi Kevin,

This is what I have:

.sidebar {
  font-size: 11px;
  width: 250px;
}

.container {
  width: 100%;
}

Hi Kevin,

Sorry, I didn’t realize that I had to enable “Latest Blog Posts” for the homepage template in the Theme Options Panel. So that’s sorted.

There are 2 other minor issues I’m having:

1) On the blog page here https://iamallmelanin.party/blog/ for some reason there is no image showing. On the homepage for example, there is large red rectangle where I can put a header photo. On the blog page, even though I have set a featured image, there is no image, only the menu. What can I do to fix that?

2) Also on the blog page, my dimensions are not really what I want. What I want is exactly like the Pinnacle Blog-Grid Example here https://themes.kadencethemes.com/pinnacle/blog-grid-example/ – on your demo, the size of the post excerpts are a bit larger than mine, and your sidebar is smaller. I searched the forum and found a post explaining how to make the blog page full width, but that didn’t make it look exactly like the demo. I also edited the sidebar width with some CSS, but that only made it less wide, as opposed to the demo where it’s less wide AND the text is smaller.

Basically I want my blog page (and therefore my homepage also) to look exactly like the Pinnacle theme demo.

Thanks so much for help, I really appreciate it. This the second theme I’ve used from you guys, they are great!

Excellent support! Worked for me too!

Thanks!!!!!

Sorry another question, is it possible to change the text above the “Submit your request for quote” button?

If you go to my shop, add something to your cart, and the proceed to checkout, on the screen where it asks for your billing details, at the very bottom is the submit button, and slightly above that to the left is some text saying “Request for Quote.” I don’t see that field in labels, and I’ve also changed every label already.

How can I edit that?

Thanks a lot.
