I built a blog page with Visual Composer (blog posts) but I'd like to keep the post appearance just like un Kalium archive category page. Please see the difference between my page :
In fact, I'd like to have several category post pages. In each of them, there are three sections :
- the category description text then
- some posts displayed permanently,
- in the last section, the posts of the category.
First, I wanted to modify the archive post template. Even with your detailed response in one ticket, I didn't reach to do this. I'm a very beginner with WordPress.
Then I tried to build such a page with VC and it works. The only issu is that I prefer Kalium post display appearance : with the category icon on the post image and post date and category meta box below the post excerpt.
I just want to know how can I get this appearance with VC "blog posts" element?
You can see the appearance difference between my page :
Sorry we could not help you on this case is out of current support limits, support is only for theme usage, but i can inform you that you have to edit file kalium/vc_templates/lab_blog_posts.php, i tried for few minutes but requires a lot of time for the changes.
I identified the Kalium functions involved in post display style. May I use them directly in kalium/vc_templates/lab_blog_posts.php? I tried to call the functions or copy one part of their syntaxe, il doesn't work.
Could you please give me just un exemple, for one element? I'll try to understand the logic and do the same for the others. Please ! :-)
Well I will try my best because is not that simple, archive.php is execute for current view you are trying to have on lab_blog_posts.php, archive.php loads some actions to show the content and loads many parameters from Theme Options. It will lead you to the kalium_blog_posts_loop function which is hook that wraps the items ( shows posts ), the function kalium_blog_posts_loop loads file blog/posts.php, so i hope you can make it.
