How can I improve the blog section on my homepage?

acornandartisan · May 20, 2022, 3:58pm

Hi friends,

Would love to make my home page blog section look more …professional. I’d like to move the header “lately at acorn & artisan” to the left in line with the blog posts. I’d also like below the lately at acorn & artisan header to have a blogs or visit the blog clickable link.

Hi @acornandartisan ,

Go to Assets > base.css and paste this at the bottom of the file:

@media only screen and (min-width: 750px) {
	.blog__title.h2  {
		padding-left: 30px;
	}
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 749px) {
	.blog .title-wrapper-with-link {
		justify-content: center;
	}
}

Hope it helps!

Hi, that didn’t seem to work. Nothing changed with it.

Hi @acornandartisan ,

I checked and didn’t find the code, can you add it again?

Because I tested and it works fine.

Hope it helps!

Hi, repasted it in for you. Maybe there is a miscommunication. I’d love the title to go to the left of the blog. So, it would be the title then all the blogs following to the right.

Hi @acornandartisan ,

Are you wanting this?

acornandartisan · May 24, 2022, 12:49am

Yes and below the “lately at acorn & artisan” I’m hoping for a link to view all blog posts!

Hi @acornandartisan ,

Please change all code:


{{ 'section-featured-blog.css' | asset_url | stylesheet_tag }}

{%- style -%}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
display: flex;
}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding slider-component{
width: 100%;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 750px) {
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top }}px;
padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom }}px;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding .title-wrapper-with-link{
display: flex;
width: 100%;
}
}
{%- endstyle -%}

{%- liquid
assign posts_displayed = section.settings.blog.articles_count
if section.settings.post_limit <= section.settings.blog.articles_count
assign posts_exceed_limit = true
assign posts_displayed = section.settings.post_limit
endif
-%}

Hope it helps!

Code has been changed; however, the page does not appear any different.

LitCommerce · May 27, 2022, 6:37am

Hi @acornandartisan ,

Sorry, there was a mistake in the CSS code, please change the code here, it will work fine

Code:

{%- style -%}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
  padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
  padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom | times: 0.75 | round: 0 }}px;
  display: flex;
}
.section-{{ section.id }}-padding slider-component{
  width: 100%;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 750px) {
  .section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
    padding-top: {{ section.settings.padding_top }}px;
    padding-bottom: {{ section.settings.padding_bottom }}px;
  }
}
@media screen and (max-width: 749px) {
  .section-{{ section.id }}-padding {
    flex-wrap: wrap;
  }
  .section-{{ section.id }}-padding .title-wrapper-with-link{
    display: flex;
    width: 100%;
  }
}
{%- endstyle -%}
