December 8, 2015 at 11:29 am #12803ivanbayrossSpectatorHi, Our development website is running in WordPress 4.3.1. We are using the LMS theme. On our blog page, via the VC back-end editor we added the Post Masonry Grid. But our posts on the blog page are not coming in a masonry grid layout, it is being displayed one below the other. How do we make our blog layout using the masonry grid? URL to our blog: http://dmtm.ivanbayross.com/blog/ Any help will be appreciated. Thanks and Regards,December 9, 2015 at 5:35 am #12905Anshuman SahuKeymasterPlease note that the blog template will not show your any content that you have added on the page .It will just show all the posts there . IF you want to show your post grid in blog page then change the template of that page to other templates like "No title" or " Default template " . refer : http://prntscr.com/9c0pk1December 12, 2015 at 7:42 am #13581BAMParticipantMy blog template only shows a couple posts at a time. How do I get this Post Masonry Grid template I like how it looks. It do not see this template under page attributes. I have around 100 posts and I am wondering also if there are any other layouts. For example by category etc.December 12, 2015 at 8:28 am #13589BAMParticipantI figured out this is a setting to use Page Builder. However I noticed when using page builder and then viewing source of page none of the blog posts listed content actually show up so it can be indexed and read by search engines. I sure hope there is a way to change this. If so please tell me how. Otherwise how is this going to be good for SEO and are all page builder pages going to sacrifice the content being read properly by search engines? Also I noticed if I use a feature image it puts the feature image in the post too. This looks odd if I already have an image in the post. Is there a way to not allow image to also show up at the beginning of the post.December 12, 2015 at 9:52 am #13602MrVibeKeymaster@Bam : In the post grid block, there is a setting called "Total number of Blocks in Grid" When you view the page source, the "Number of blocks" will appear in source. The ones which are dynamically loaded will not appear because there is no scroll in view source. p.s : It is always recommended to create you own topic, to avoid confusion.December 12, 2015 at 10:03 am #13608BAMParticipantThanksDecember 14, 2015 at 9:07 am #13786BAMParticipant@ivanbayross how did you get the red READ NOW buttons in your Masonry layout for blog. I like that look..!December 16, 2015 at 7:59 am #14138Anshuman SahuKeymasterUse the visual composer post grid element for that and you can style that button .December 21, 2015 at 10:58 am #14916ivanbayrossSpectatorHi Alex, We have some issues with Masonry layout:
- After changing the blog layout to a Masonry grid layout, the posts load 15 / 20 seconds after the page is loaded completely. Is there a way to load the first 5 posts when the page is loading without the time gab? When there is a time gap it looks like there is no content on the page. The loading image is also not noticeable.
- Apparently our blog masonry grid does not work on a MAC. Here is the link to our blog - DMTM Blog Link.
December 21, 2015 at 12:50 pm #14943ivanbayrossSpectatorFurther to my above post. When I am logged in via the WP Admin and I check the Blog main home page, I can see the blog posts displayed in a Masonry layout. But when I am viewing the site as a normal site visitor (without logging in a Admin) I can't see any blog posts displayed in a Masonry layout. Any help will be appreciated.December 22, 2015 at 11:10 am #15105ivanbayrossSpectatorFurther to my above reply, currently we have changed the layout of the blog back to the default layout. Click here for the test page with Masonry layout. The reason why masonry did not work was because of the cache plugin. Now when the cache plugin is deactivated the masonry is working but it takes 1-2 minutes for the blog post to display in masonry format. How can we avoid the delay in displaying the post in the Masonry layout. Any help will be appreciated.December 22, 2015 at 2:07 pm #15148Anshuman SahuKeymasterWell this is dependent on your server and php response .
