Church Websites (Sidekick): Blog Posts: How to Change the Layout of Your Posts

Depending on your design preference, you may want to change the style of your posts, as well as the information displayed.

Check out this short video on how to quickly change the look of your blog posts.

Did you know that you can change the way your posts show up on your pages? It's super easy. Here we are on one of our blog pages.

We’re going to click on the settings button, then on the blog layout. At the top of the section, we see that we have four options. The first will place our image at the top of the blog if we have added one.

The second is without an image. The third has a title above the image and the content below. For the fourth one, we will need to edit our blog listing to one column.

Then it displays our blog with the picture to the left and the content to the right. Below these, we see seven different settings. Let's see what they do.

If we uncheck the show date box, our date is hidden. Now let's do the same to the other selections. Uncheck the show category and the category disappears here.

Uncheck the thumbnail date and the date over the image is hidden. Uncheck the author and the author is hidden from view. Uncheck show tags and those will no longer be viewable.

Uncheck show views and the views will disappear. We do not recommend having comments on your blogs or posts because it invites spam onto your site. That said, if you do wish to have comments, you can click the check box and it will display your comment section.

Finally, at the bottom, you can choose how many posts to display.
