    Hi,

    I have a question about main page layout design. Please see the image below.

    I want to have 3 blogs below “A Static Image”section, namely Title A, Title B, and Title C, each showing 1 column blog vertically and separated by dashed line. It will show 5 most recent posts for each blog and will load more posts when moving to bottom of page.

    What is the easiest way to involve 3 blog like that? My informed guess is shortcode, could you suggest which way will work?
    1. Create 1 blog page only in addition to main page, divided all content to 3 categories (Title A, Title B, Title C), and adjusted to such layout by filtering categories.
    2. Create 3 blog pages in addition to main page, Title A, Title B and Title C. And what’s the next step?
    3. Any other ways?

    Thank you!

    Best Regards,
    Sam

    the best would be to use a grid layout, but it will not separate the categories:

    Code:
    [blog number_posts=”” cat_slug=”” exclude_cats=”” title=”yes” thumbnail=”yes” excerpt=”yes” excerpt_words=”35″ meta_all=”yes” meta_author=”yes” meta_categories=”yes” meta_comments=”yes” meta_date=”yes” meta_link=”yes” meta_tags=”yes” paging=”yes” scrolling=”infinite” strip_html=”yes” blog_grid_columns=”3″ layout=”grid”][/blog]

    or try this, but it can break a page:

    Code:
    [one_third last=”no”][blog number_posts=”3″ cat_slug=”” exclude_cats=”” title=”yes” thumbnail=”yes” excerpt=”yes” excerpt_words=”35″ meta_all=”yes” meta_author=”yes” meta_categories=”yes” meta_comments=”yes” meta_date=”yes” meta_link=”yes” meta_tags=”yes” paging=”yes” scrolling=”infinite” strip_html=”yes” layout=”large”][/blog][/one_third]
    [one_third last=”no”][blog number_posts=”3″ cat_slug=”” exclude_cats=”” title=”yes” thumbnail=”yes” excerpt=”yes” excerpt_words=”35″ meta_all=”yes” meta_author=”yes” meta_categories=”yes” meta_comments=”yes” meta_date=”yes” meta_link=”yes” meta_tags=”yes” paging=”yes” scrolling=”infinite” strip_html=”yes” layout=”large”][/one_third]
    [one_third last=”yes”][blog number_posts=”3″ cat_slug=”” exclude_cats=”” title=”yes” thumbnail=”yes” excerpt=”yes” excerpt_words=”35″ meta_all=”yes” meta_author=”yes” meta_categories=”yes” meta_comments=”yes” meta_date=”yes” meta_link=”yes” meta_tags=”yes” paging=”yes” scrolling=”infinite” strip_html=”yes” layout=”large”][/one_third]
