  • Blog Masonry – A three column masonry layout with sidebar on the right.

Bramble Blog Widget

This theme comes with a Blog widget that allows you to display a grid or carousel of posts anywhere on a page using Page Builder. On the page in which you are adding the blog widget click the Page Builder tab at the top right of the editor.

From the Page Builder tool bar, click the Add Widget button to add a widget. From the available widgets select the Bramble Blog widget. Once the widget has been added to your page, hover over it and click on the edit link in the upper right corner.

On the Bramble Blog widget settings screen, there are a number of options that allow you to configure your blog display and give it a style of your own. Once you are finished configuring the widget, click the Done button and then Save/Update the page.

Archives

Since the page template that you selected for your blog page will only affect your main blog page, we’ve given you options to configure your Archives pages. This includes pages like category and tag archives. To do so, navigate to Appearance->Customizes->Blog->Archives.
