How can I modify blog layout with Motion theme?

I am currently trying to change the layout of the blogs with my Shopify Motion theme. Currently, it is in a list style but I would like to change it to a grid-style layout. There is no option to do that in the store customizer.

Hello,

Can you give me your Theme name? And Your Domain, then I will definitely help you

My theme name is called Motion and the store is:

https://swamp-dog-outfitters-llc.myshopify.com/ or you can go to swampdog.com

I checked your Theme Configuration, but I didn’t find the Grid view option. I you permit then I will create CSS, and then your blog will show in gid view.

before start give me your blog Page Url I will review then i will create CSS if needed then will create js Also

There a few places the blog page is being used where we’d like it changed. Will you need the link to one or all? Here is a link to one:

https://www.swampdog.com/blogs/daily-devotions

We need To change This File Code and Create Some CSS so, please copy, and Past this page code in a Text file I will definitely change The layout because your blog header and article are in the same container that’s why it’s we need to change the page layout coding.

after that result:

Here is the code for the blog template:

{%- paginate blog.articles by 5 -%}

  

    {%- render 'breadcrumbs' -%}

    

    {%- assign is_even_post = false -%}
    {%- for article in blog.articles -%}
      

      {% comment %}Set the next post as an even one{% endcomment %}
      {%- liquid
        if is_even_post
          assign is_even_post = false
        else
          assign is_even_post = true
        endif
      -%}
    {%- endfor -%}

    {%- if paginate.pages > 1 -%}
      {%- render 'pagination', paginate: paginate -%}
    {%- endif -%}
  

{%- endpaginate -%}

{% schema %}

  "settings": [
    {
      "type": "checkbox",
      "id": "blog_show_tag_filter",

Note: Before changing Template And CSS, Take backup

That is Liquid Template Code

{%- paginate blog.articles by 5 -%}

  
    

      {%- render 'breadcrumbs' -%}

      
      
        {%- assign is_even_post = false -%}
        {%- for article in blog.articles -%}
          
        

        {% comment %}Set the next post as an even one{% endcomment %}
        {%- liquid
        if is_even_post
          assign is_even_post = false
        else
          assign is_even_post = true
        endif
      -%}
      {%- endfor -%}

      {%- if paginate.pages > 1 -%}
        {%- render 'pagination', paginate: paginate -%}
      {%- endif -%}
    

  

{%- endpaginate -%}

{% schema %}
  {
    "name": "t:sections.blog-template.name",
    "settings": [
      {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_tag_filter",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_tag_filter.label"
      },
      {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_rss",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_rss.label"
      },
      {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_tags",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_tags.label"
      },
      {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_date",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_date.label",
        "default": true
      }, {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_comments",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_comments.label",
        "default": true
      }, {
        "type": "checkbox",
        "id": "blog_show_author",
        "label": "t:sections.blog-template.settings.blog_show_author.label"
      }
    ]
  }
{% endschema %}

And put that CSS code:

.gridview .article--layout{
        display:block !important;
    }
.gridview{
    display:grid;
    grid-template-columns:1fr 1fr;
grid-column-gap: 2rem;
    
}
.gridview .article__content{
max-width:100% !important;
}

After putting My Code Output just like this

I copied your code into the dedicated files and this is what it looks like as the result:

can you share me these dedicated page URL then I will check why CSS is not working
