Doesn’t display grid

Hi LasPalmas,

Did you specify how many columns you want to display in the “Teaser Columns (2-6)” value?

Hi John,

Yes, here are the settings. Not sure what could be wrong.

It looks like it is working to me. You have 8 “feature” posts showing at top, then 8 “teaser” posts displayed in three columns: https://cl.ly/0F1I3K382y2Q

Your theme is adding 80px left/right padding to all entries, so the teasers don’t look that great. You’ll want to write your own CSS that targets .entry.teaser (less padding, smaller heading…)

Hi Bill,

Thanks so much for your response. I didn’t see the 8 feature. Ok, I can remove the CSS so it has less padding.

One last question. Do you know if I can show the less excerpt? Right now is showing the entire post. I was able to do it with my other site janarebelo.com/blog/ but I’m stuck again with Costa del Tennis. Thanks again!

Here are two tutorials:

1. Use full post for feature (this assumes you use the excerpt for teasers): https://www.billerickson.net/code/full-content-features-in-grid-loop/ You can change the excerpt length using the excerpt_length filter

2. Change length of excerpt for teasers (using excerpt for both feature and teaser): https://www.billerickson.net/code/genesis-grid-change-length-of-content-in-grid/

That’s great. I now realize I was using this for my other site:

add_filter(‘excerpt_length’,’custom_excerpt_length’);
function custom_excerpt_length( $num_words ){
return 10; // number of words to show
}

Do you have any idea how to add the featured picture also?

The featured image can be added in Genesis > Theme Settings

thanks so much Bill! ??

Are there any shortcodes or documentation that would show me which ones to use?
