Hello support
Learning from
I assume I need to change the “Latest Posts” blocks to shortcode “<span style=”background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #4f4f4f; font-family: Inconsolata, Consolas, Monaco, ‘Lucida Console’, monospace; font-size: 14px;”>[ashe_blog]</span>”. But how to customize the layout? I’d like to see the picture (preview 150×150) and right beside it the title and the excerpt (35 words).
it should look like this
https://www.derfilzkeller.de/wordpress/gorwins/
but with a shortended excerpt. But it looks like this

thanks in advance
March 26, 2022 at 4:50 pm #68432Hi Kurt,
At first, thank you for choosing our theme and service.
You are using WordPress provided post widget, with the theme it has some conflicts and we are on the way to fixing this, before we recommend using theme shortcodes to display posts on any page.
To display all latest post use:
[ashe_blog]
To select specific categories in the blog feed shortcode, you just need to add the “categories” attribute to it. You can list multiple categories separated by a comma:
[ashe_blog categories="food,travel"]
or select a single one like this:
[ashe_blog categories="food"]
Also, posts per page could be limited by adding the “amount” attribute” like this:
[ashe_blog categories="food" amount="5"]
To select specific posts in the blog feed shortcode, you just need to add the “post_ids” attribute to it and list selected post ids separated by a comma like this:
[ashe_blog post_ids="1,23,157"]
Hope it was helpful.
Kind Regards
March 26, 2022 at 11:31 pm #68443Dear Vako thank you for your reply. I know this answer already (I cited the other support cases). How can I use [ashe_blog categories=”food”] and display the picture left hand side and title / excerpt right hand side? the picture should be a thumbnail, only please help best regards Kurt
March 28, 2022 at 6:34 pm #68460Hi Kurt,
Shortcodes inherit styles from the blog page, unfortunately, it’s not possible to change the styles of the blog posts only on the page where the short-code was used.
Kind Regards
March 28, 2022 at 8:00 pm #68465Hi Vako
ok, understood. But I want to change blog posts generally. All pages should use the same style – left hand side the picture and right hand side the title plus except (35 words). I don’t see any possibility to customize the blog page the way I need it.
could you please give me a hint?
thanks
March 30, 2022 at 11:20 am #68482Hi Kurt,
1. To change the blog page styles, please navigate to Dashboard > Appearance > Customize > General Layouts > Page Layouts > Blog Page, for your case more suitable, is to choose the layout Lyst style with your preferred sidebar combinations.
2. To manage post description length, Excerpt Length, please navigate to Dashboard > Appearance > Customize > Blog Page > Excerpt Length
Kind Regards
March 31, 2022 at 2:59 pm #68495Hello Vako
thanks, it worked well. I was asking also about the size of the thumbnails. Is there also the possibility to change it?
thanks
March 31, 2022 at 3:19 pm #68496it seems there are too much options. The thumbnail size can be controlled by changing <span style=”color: #50575e; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, ‘Segoe UI’, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, ‘Helvetica Neue’, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 600;”>List Thumbnail Crop Width / Height</span>
this post can be closed. no more issues
