    Hello Support

    I’m trying to recreate the sidebar “Recent Posts” section from the Woodmart demo, where post thumbnails appear to the left of the post title, date, and comment count in a clean side-by-side layout.

    I’ve attempted using the core WordPress “Latest Posts” block with featured images enabled, but I’m running into issues:

    – Without “align left” on the images, thumbnails stack above the titles instead of beside them.
    – With “align left” enabled, CSS floats cause subsequent sidebar widgets (Recent Comments, Archives) to wrap up beside the Recent Posts block instead of appearing below it. Separator lines also reappear between items.

    I’ve rebuilt the sidebar from scratch multiple times and confirmed this isn’t caused by empty blocks or structural issues — it appears the core WordPress block simply doesn’t support the layout shown in your demo.

    Could you let me know which specific widget, block, or shortcode is used in the Woodmart demo to produce the sidebar Recent Posts section with the side-by-side thumbnail layout? I’d like to use the correct Woodmart-native approach rather than trying to force the core block to work.

    See screenshot for what I’m trying to produce.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello,

    Your issue has been solved. You should use the Woodmart Recent post widget in the sidebar. I have added it on your site. Please check the site now after removing the browser cache.

    Best Regards.

    One other question: What controls the font on that widget title “Recent Posts?”

    Can the Instagram or X widget be repurposed for a TikTok feed?
    Promise that’s the last question, for now.

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Sorry but there is no option in Theme Settings available for that.

    It requires customizations and this is beyond our limitations and support policy.
