In the interim, there is a way to filter through blocks and change their default attributes. You can find more about there here.

It looks like the button has a default attribute being applied, which is the blue you’re seeing.

buttonBackgroundColor: {
	type: 'string',
	default: '#3373dc'
},

We’ll have to take a look at what it means to remove that. If it can be done seamlessly on our end (and not trigger a deprecation), that might be the best option.

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in. Do the posts that are missing have anything special about them? Is it possible they are being filtered out anywhere else on your site via a plugin or code snippet? We’ll need a little more info to figure out what’s going on.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kim,

We’re working on a way for users to be able to set defaults within the interface, but we’re not quite there yet. To reset the default color, it looks like you will have to redefine the color palettes that are set in the theme. You’ll need to do this in the child theme. Depending on the theme, the Genesis team should be able to point you to the color palette code that needs to be replaced!

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in. The Post Grid block will let you add a list of blog posts, but we currently don’t have an option for a random output. We’ll definitely consider this though!

Widgets are a core feature, so Atomic Blocks doesn’t have any particular way of working with them. You can insert some of the widgets directly into the page by using the widget blocks.

Soon, you’ll be able to use all the widgets in defined widget areas. This is still under development by the core team though.

Hi Tristan,

Thanks for the heads up! We’ve checked out your issue and will continue to explore this. We’re constantly updating the plugin with little fixes here and there, and this is something we’ve talked about previously. Stay tuned!

That will work for the front end, and if you load CSS in the editor that should work as well. We don’t have a way to set site-wide defaults via the UI yet though. Something we’ve considered looking at though!

Hi there,

This block doesn’t have the option to add custom HTML. We kept it simple with editable links so that we can ensure a consistent display of the links. The website link would be the best bet for now.

Hi there,

The container block comes with the option to add a background image. You just have to select it manually. There’s no way to automatically use the featured image as a container background image though.

The Advanced Column block also comes with background image support now.

Hi there,

Have you tried a manual excerpt to see if that works?

Hi there,

Just a heads up that we launched version 2.1.0 today, with support for 1 column grid support. Thanks for your feedback!

Hi Jon,

Thanks for the heads up! I’ve just logged this issue on Github and we’ll get a fix in the next update. Thanks for the tip!

Hi there,

That’s not possible yet, but definitely on our to-do list! We’ll be swinging back around to the Post Grid block for another round of updates soon so stay tuned!

Hi there,

We don’t have that feature yet, but it has been proposed and we’ll hopefully add it soon! You can follow the progress of it here on github.

Hi there,

Right now, the Post Grid block only supports posts and pages, however, we may open this up to custom post types like Portfolio in the future. We’re exploring that option but we want to ensure we can provide a consistent experience with custom post types.
