I’m using the Folders plugin so perhaps it added a post_folder taxonomy.
Is there a private way to provide a login to see about replicating the exact same formatting as the post layout on the https://otpa.dreamhosters.com/annual-meeting/ page using the Query loop instead? I’ve already created all 12 of those pages using that same layout so I’d have to replace the blocks but if it works better I could.(I was also speaking back and forth with you about the submenu dropdown not scrolling on desktop, if that could be looked at too maybe…)
Edit: for simplicity sake, I changed the archive template to have just the Query Block NOT the posts block. It doesn’t match the formatting we wanted but functionality is more important, this will apply only if the breadcrumbs links are used off of individual posts.
However, on all main Events pages, and any pages using the Posts block that we specifically wanted the color/layout/style of the Posts variation chosen, it still would be good to have them pull from the Category, not the post_folder if possible.
Here is another example of a page using the Posts block, that is only pulling the correct category of posts through the post_folder taxonomy. Using category pulls nothing, unless something is marked “uncategorized”
Hi David, sorry for the delay, I’m not getting notified by your system when your responses come in.
Regarding 1 & 2; we are using the posts block because that was the specific formatting we were looking to have shown, not the query block lists.
Here is an example page using 2 Stax posts blocks atop each other. See screenshot to see how we were able to get the correct category to show, ONLY by using the post_folder within the editor. Using Category shows none of the posts. When the breadcrumbs are used and it goes back to the archive page, edited again to use your Stax posts for formatting to match, then ALL posts show up, NOT the correct category only.
Hi, unfortunately neither of those codes worked. It didn’t change the text size at all, and it made the sub domain open on the right, but again none of the link items were clickable, same as before…
Additionally, with the CSS code you had supplied to make the dropdowns open to the left instead of right so they didn’t run off page, it caused all dropdown items to stop working on desktop for main menu items that feature sub dropdowns, only the columns that just have one level of dropdowns, but they all work on mobile.
So for example, on https://otpa.dreamhosters.com/
Resources Main menu has sub dropdowns off Preservation and Education, those sub dropdown menu items work, but none of the main Resources links work.I removed this code and they work again, but may make the right hand side dropdowns run off page again (and still no way to scroll to bottom of list)
@media (min-width: 782px) {
.wp-block-navigation .has-child .wp-block-navigation__submenu-container .wp-block-navigation__submenu-container {
left: -240px !important;
max-width: 200px;
}
}Final edit, after playing with this for hours (your support format does not allow me to delete replies to clean this up):
*Category is still not working when chosen for taxonomy; only post_folder works for both the content slideshow, AND the posts block. This is urgent.
When choosing ANY category other than uncategorized, all posts disappear on the posts block. As a temporary workaround I am using the post_folder, and got that to publish and show live, but need to fix why categories are not applying even though they are showing up on the post itself; on the category dropdown as #of posts assigned to that category etc. Thye just will not show when queried
*I fixed the archives page to show the correct posts when categories is chosen as the dropdown, however they are showing the chosen category AND all uncategorized, is there a setting to choose only to show the chosen category, not the uncategorized?
*Is there a way to make the post text (header, date, button etc) middle of the post box, not at the top on every block like this? See attached
the posts block that I designed ALL the query loop block pages around does not pull up the post either even though it is assigned…

It shows as the correct category assigned, but does not pull up under the slideshow, breadcrumbs or category dropdown
In addition to the question above regarding the nav block, we have a lengthy sub menu and on desktop there is no way to scroll to the bottom, it cuts off and does not move down…is there a way to fix this? attaching screenshot or link for reference is OTPA Events nav main menu, sub menu OTPA Events: https://otpa.dreamhosters.com/otpa-events/
Ty #1 is fixed. One of the key reasons we chose this theme was because of the ability to have the transparent header that merges into solid and fixed, with the different logo change. When using the navigation block it’s not working and just stays solid without the formatting or logo change, would this require more detailed coding to fix or is there a way to merge the coding with the Stax theme header and the navigation block?
I tried this as well with hex code b24a1e and it didn’t work either. Perhaps because of the disconnect in navigation menus I just opened a ticket about?
