Hi, I just followed your steps, and it's working. However I'm having a problem with changing the section title. It doesn't highlight or allow me to click on it or change it. Can you please help?
For people who have problem editing the "Section title" into Blogs.
Click on Section title
Go to top left
Click on "settings" just next to "content"
Scroll down and click on "section title" just below "Social Share Pro"
Click on the box and and edit as you like it.
Hope it helps.
Thanks. That was driving me nuts.
thank youuuu
Thank you!!!
Love you
THANK YOU!
I really want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for this video! I have struggled for ages to find out what I was doing wrong! I built my website but couldn’t display it! I watched so many videos and still didn’t learn what to do to correct my mistakes until I watched this video! Thank you! I am 76 so don’t pick up things as speedily as younger folk. Thank you again!
Bravo!
2:22 It would be nice if you said first you need to have blog posts already for you to use this tool
this speaks the truth lol
You covered the display page but what do we need to know about creating the actual blogs? Do you have to make each one in Elementor? Can you use Gutenberg? Any limitation or rules to the layout??
My thoughts exactly, no one seems to cover that issue.
Yeah, I'm looking for the same answer. Did you have any luck yet?
Finally someone that how to do this in the Free version of Elementor! Excellent video, super helpful and well explained. Thank you so so soooo much for this!
This is so cool. Thank you. I am very new but want to start a blog Website. Do you have a video on the creating the blog part? Do you use elementor to design your post?
Well explained but the POST GRID LOAD VERY SLOW that shows it might be also slow after publish
Can anyone tell me how to have 1 "sticky" post as the first post and the other blog posts will be sorted by dates? thank you. Not sure if i make it clear enough, like lets say i have a grid of 3 (column) x6 (row) of blog post, how do i make blog #1 always appear first at the upper left corner , and the other posts all sorted according to date. Thanks!
If you're adding the posts using the Elementor Posts Widget have you tried going to "Query" section of the "Content" and toggling "Ignore Sticky Posts" off. It's on by default. If you turn it off the sticky post should be first (top left) and the other posts should appear according to your settings (chronological in this case).
Is there a way to fix the "404 Error" when clicking the "Read More" link/button?
The tuto didn't explain how to edit the "Section title". I had to find it myself. Irritating.
Settings > Section title > Title
Good point, I'll make sure that's in the next one!
hey guys,
how do we get rid of the word 'Hardware' as shown on the blogposts in this video.
The one who has the answer will get prayers from god, thans.
"Hardware" is the category of the blog posts in this video. You can toggle displaying categories in the settings for blog post layout. I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
Hi. I am trying to link an exisiting blog to my wordpress website. Any tips for doing this? Thanks
Hi Felicity,
What are you currently using as your blogging software?
Excellent video! Just curious-- what is the widget in Elementor Pro that does this called?
The widgets I used in this plugin are added by the free version of a plugin called "The Post Grid".
why I can't achieve the wide featured Images 5:05 I do have a sidebar
When I add the Post Grid plugin, it takes over the Elementor sidebar and i can't access the Elementor widgets. How do I fix that?
Hi Rich,
I just tried it out on my demo site and the Post Grid plugin doesn't take over the Elementor sidebar for me. When I'm working in the Post Grid widget I do have click the 9 square grid icon in the Elementor bar in the top left to get back to the Elementor widgets. It could also be a conflict with another plugin on your site or the theme. Most conflicts can be resolved by updating all plugins, the active theme and the WordPress core files if updates are available. I hope that helps!
@@wplearninglab Thanks, I'll use your suggestions and let you know the results.
hi dear
can you tell me why the block can not upload on the page ? on the time 2:21, you can download well, why i can not
I don't know, I think it's the plugin causing the problem. I think they may need to update their plugin.
How do I make sure that when I click on a post that would redirect the user to the actual article?
That should be done automatically. With the plugin I used in this tutorial it turns the featured image and the title of the blog post into a clickable link that takes visitors from the blog listing page to the actual article.
I hope that helps, let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
But how do you create all of the posts? Are you actually creating a new page for every single blog post? That's the question I have.
Good question! You create one page that will display the posts, most commonly called a blog page.
Then to create the blog posts, go the Posts section in the WordPress dashboard and click Add New. Each new post you publish will show up on the Page you created in this tutorial in chronological order.
I hope that helps and please let me know if you have any other questions!
@@wplearninglab Thank you so much. I've been watching your videos and have been understanding everything so well now.
I do have another question though, I can't seem to change the Section title as you did. I can't seem to be able to type, and I can't find any boxes to write on either.
What can you do if you don't have existing blogs
If you need an existing blog post to create the template, then just create a simple blog post and delete it afterwards.
Alright, but just curious how do you follow up and create personal post layouts for the content ?
Wordpress seems to always put blogposts (also saved templates) into a old looking box / container.
Thanks for the video, I am a wp user, but Elementor is new for me. The question is: is this feature will automatically update the recent blog posts or do I have to manually add it to the list every time I post a new article? Thanks for your reply in advance? :)
What if I need more pages for different blog posts and post each to its specific page? Thanks
awesome! thank you.... Could you also let us know any decent sidebar options with this? many thanks...
After adding the blog page in the wordpress. How do I create a new blog?
How do you publish your posts in WordPress, so that they automatically appear on the blog page.
my grid layout will not load. other than that, it's great.
Maybe if you exit the Elementor editor and reload it?
This free block keeps spinning in te elementor editor even when refresh.. could it be chrome browser?
The Elementor editor normally would do that, so it must be something else. It could be the browser (maybe it's out of date?) or it could be caused by a chrome extension (if you have any installed).
@@wplearninglab I have to check it thanks!
create a post for understanding teo by step hahaha hahaha
BTW, you cracked me up with the "Aged blog posts". Such an awesome tutorial! Thanks again!
I currently have the Zeinet theme, I create a blank page and name it "blog posts".
After that when I add my custom header (that I created with Elementor) it displays a "recent posts" and "recent comments" that I can't remove using elementor, I tried making its Theme "Elementor Canvas" but it doesn't work
First of all this is really helpful. You got the best tutorials out here so far!
But I can't edit the section title @2:43 and I don't know how to make my new blog posts page into the default page for the menu to navigate to. Please help, I really struggle with WP and Elementor.
click setting, then go to section title
Very very thankful
Me too, every day :)
But we can;t see how you "make" a post. Where do you write it? how does it get published? How do you set up the pictures?
Hi the reason your blog page is loading twice is because of the selected preloader settings... on the post grid settings pannel, shut the three selected icons and your page will work well. You don't need preloader on.
Thanks for the tip Patrick! And sorry for the delay. I'm still trying figure out my summer holiday work schedule!
The widget is continually loading like in the video. Pretty unbearable to use.
it Is not free
No it's not and I don't I said it was...
How you can edit your blog page with elementor because when I create my blog page and choose the post page to be the blog page I cant no longer edit it with elementor. If I try not to choose a post page the posts in the blog page does not appear???
It can be tricky, you have to do it just the right way. Check out these two tutorials that explain the relationship between Elementor and blog pages: 1. ua-cam.com/video/jmxl9z7zfHg/v-deo.html 2. ua-cam.com/video/XtZnoGBQtHY/v-deo.html
I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
When I dragged the grid it did not show up on the Elementor edit page. Please explain
That plugin wont load even after clicking refresh and restarting
Bro you do not teach. You made this video in a way where I have to spend 3 hours watching the same video. That cuts efficiency. You’re just clicking button, you’re not viewing the perspective of a beginner. I’m more confused than ever.
Thanks for feedback!
For some reason the "Section title" won't let me edit this text name to "blog posts"
Fantastic video, thank you!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
HI Does anyone know wjy whatever I do it shows me the error "no posts found"
Before that i had to search and do something far more worse than this look thanks for the video
I am unable to change the titles - what's your magic?
Does the post grid plug-in affect all pages? Like the drop-down for short code vs elementor? If I choose one will it disable short code on some of my pages?
Hi Trish,
I'm not sure I fully understand your question, but I'll do my best to answer it :) The post grid plugin will affect only pages to which you've added the shortcode. If you use an Elementor template to create a post grid you can specify in the conditions which type of archive page the post grid will be applied to (blog post listings, category archives, tag archives, etc.). Use the Elementor template with the conditions will override a post grid listing page created using the shortcode. I hope that helps :) Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!
That refresh is not your local machine. I've had this same problem but only with the post grid add on
So it's an add-on issue then 😀
Every day I enter your channel to see if there are new lessons.🌹🌹🌹🌹
I can’t edit my blog page with elementor
do yo have to use a plugin to get a blog page to show posts?
Good question. The answer is no, the functionality is built right into WordPress.
This video shows you how to do it: ua-cam.com/video/TUaefFy9yi8/v-deo.html
I hope that helps!
great
Thanks! And sorry for the delay. I'm still trying figure out my summer holiday work schedule!
It isn't free...I have to upgrade and activate
slow to load? Im 2 hours in and it still hasn't load
When I drag the widget I don't see any layout or images that I can modify, do you know if it can still be done as the video says?
How do we make pictures show up on there?
Thank you! when i press the button read more it doesn't work...
Hi Ioanna,
Are you testing it in the Elementor editor or the Elementor preview or on a published page?
Honestly I was disappointed by this video: the blogs are already created. It would have been better to explain how to create one by one
did you figure that out? searching atm...ugh
Hi, what seo plug-in do you recommend? I use yoast seo but I keep seeing red marks for my outbound and inbound links. I have a template for all my posts that automatically pulls in those links with breadcrumbs and post navigation at the bottom so I’m really confused
Have you tried all in one SEO? It has more than 3 million users. I personally use it and it's pretty good.
@@PharaelMartins I wish I tried that but instead I went ahead and purchased the yoast premium
I'd love another recommendation for a post grid add on as this endless spinning each time I need to edit it is frustrating. I have to update and refresh multiple times before it finally stops spinning.
Great vid, thanks! How come when you go on to your wordpress page you created, named it blog posts and then clicked edit with elementor the page name doesnt show. It does on mine. Any help on how to hide this as I have a section title which I'd like to just call Blog or News but I have BLOG as the page name above it and it looks stupid.
Diloes adding such addons affect adsense approval
Not that I'm aware of.
im a newbie to wp but how did you put a content on every grid?
Hey Ayis,
Elementor does most of the work in regards to the grid. All you have to do is drag and drop the elements in place.
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Just starting my blog page within website. Elementor Edit TPG asks me to "Choose Layout" from 1-3 options but no option will drag/drop onto page ???
Post Grid is terrible. Better not to install this plugin. Loading is too slow.
I got a serious problem after installing this plugin. My Menu is not displaying in vertical even if it is set to display to horizontally. Deleted this immediately. BEWARE guys!
I have prepared a website for affiliate marketing and I have prepared the necessary title for it then I have prepared 15 articles to put on that website and I have prepared the title keywords separately for those 15 articles and inserted them in it.
Now my doubt is where to I put the website title? Can put it on the home page? Or to prepare separate articles for that and put it on the home page? Or to put it in the first article in the post for the website title? Say that. Please tell me bro
Hey, great tutorial, thank you for sharing, however I have ran into an issue, now whenver I visit the blog post page and try to click on one of the blog posts or on the option to "read more", it doesnt open the post, it just refreshes the blog post page, what can i do ?
Following this, my latest post doesn't show details (correct image, however there is no blog title and read more doesn't work). Has anyone else experienced this?
This is a well explained video except the blog page will not load for me no matter how many times I refresh. I tried to load it on many different devices and none works. Because it won't load at all, even I know the blog template is there, I am unable to edit it...
Thanks for the video! I Can't change the tittle to blog post. it's stuck a section title. Eveytime I try the move widget moves.
i have a problem, it seems as if my wp theme has its own blog page and category so the blog page i created is not being linked in my posts instead the theme blog page, can i disable that somehow?
Does repurposing my blog posts to medium negatively effect my seo having the same thing on 2 different places or does it only benefit me in having more traffic?
Seems really incomplete
Thanks for this tutorial.
You're welcome Joseph, thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any questions :)
And sorry for the delay. I'm still trying figure out my summer holiday work schedule!

Thanks for the help but somehow the plugin is not showing the pictures of the posts.
Thank you for this valuable information! it helped me a lot.
Mine just sits and spins in perpetuity when I add the Grid Layout. Sign, yet another dead end.
This is great. Thank you!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
That's pretty cool. Good topic. I did notice that it is easier to preview posts than pages, but haven't put much effort into doing actually doing so yet.
Thank you, Paveinai, for how to edit section title!
After new Elementor update it doesn't work anymore.
It keeps loading to no end when I add the grid . Is there anything I can do to fix this
But where would this blog post be in the website for customers to visit or click?
Simple yet extremely helpful.
Thanks, I'm happy I could help! Thanks for watching!
