Posts thumbnail and categories in sidebar

  • Hi Nik! This is a second question for you if you don’t mind. Managed to make my way this far, but still pretty newb. Like I said in the previous topic; amazing theme and parallax style didnt make me think twice. Sorry for my english i’ll do my best

    The question concerns the post pages, whereas I would love the thumbnail of the post as well as the category list to be placed in first and second positions in the side bar, in such fashion that that the first thing visible when landing in the post is the embeded book reader. That would look beautiful with the library function of my website.

    Thank you for taking the time of looking over at this

    Hi, Sam

    you have widget in your widget list called “Ghost recent Posts” it outputs posts with thumbnails
    you can place it in first position of “Main sideber area”, than category list and you will have recent posts with category list in first screen (if I’ve wright understood you)

    Regards!

    Hi Nik thanks for you replies, Did not change when adding this code to the Customize ”additionnal css” section

    About the thumbnail and category list, this is not exactly what i meant, I was not speaking of the whole category list and recent posts:p i’ll try to explain better. When you go into a post the first thing you see in the container is a LARGE thumbnail with a transparent white box in front of it containing the categories associated with THAT post. Is it possible to have these two (The thumbnail and categories of THAT post) in the sidebar instead? In such a way that the first thing you see in the container is the actual content of the post/article? Thank you!!

    *Not the thumbnail, the featured image

    Wright now i’m not planning to implement such kind of functionality, but there is a function, that can help you
    <?php the_category(', '); ?>
    file, that output recent post with images is “inc/widgets/ghost-lite-resent-posts.php” (65 – 84 line of code)
    if you need bigger image, change the_post_thumbnail(‘thumbnail’) to the_post_thumbnail(‘medium’)

    Regards !
