How to customize front page post size on StrapGrid Lite

Hello styled4you and thank you for using WP StrapGrid ??

The blog post grid is designed to accommodate the featured image plus the excerpt and meta data output and hence set to the size it is.

You can change the height of the grids by manipulating the CSS – the code that controls the grids is located in the custom.css which can be found in the assets/css folder. The actual css is

.well-grid {
      height: 410px;
      width: 21%;
      margin-bottom: 20px;
      background-color: #fafafa;
      margin-right: 0;
      padding: 0 3px 0 12px;
      border: 1px solid #e3e3e3;
      -webkit-border-radius: 4px;
      -moz-border-radius: 4px;
      border-radius: 4px;
      -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
      -moz-box-shadow: inset 0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
      box-shadow: inset 0 1px 1px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}

and can be found on line 175. Manipulating the settings in the above code will help you change the size(height) of the grids plus remove the borders if you wish to.

When featured images are added the look and feel would be like the demo at https://www.wpstrapcode.com/wpstrapgrid/ – you could always use a static page as the front page if you do not wish to show the blogs posts on the home page.

Hope that helps but do let me know if there’s anything I’ve missed or if you need further assistance.

Thanks for answering so quickly. I prefer the landing page and did try that. However, when i create the landing page, I am unable to get the widgets to show there. Ideally, I would like the widgets on the front page and blog posts on their own. What is the easiest way to make that happen?

Ah OK got you.

Let me look in to that and I’ll try and get a revised version uploaded asap – if not will get you set up with a child theme ??

Thank you! Really appreciate that. Meanwhile, I used your first response to create a temporary work-around so thanks for that also!

Just touching base to say I’ve not forgotten about you – been kinda busy lately but I’ll get to work on the issue as soon as I can and get back to you when I have a solution.
