HOW DO I LINK BLOG CATEGORY TO A BLOG PAGE SECTION TEMPLATE
-
Hello, I am working on styling my blog’s landing page template. I’ve selected different template formats from the library for each section of my homepage. However, I’m facing a challenge: I can’t seem to link each blog category to its corresponding template. What steps should I take to resolve this? See image attached for reference.

Thank you for your assistance; I have resolved the initial issue. However, I still need guidance on the following items regarding the Magazine Page:
1. FEATURE Section
I would like the articles in this section to appear as six tiles on the page instead of just two, with the remaining articles hidden and only accessible by scrolling. My goal is to have all six tiles displayed at once, arranged in columns of two, as shown in the attached reference.
2. DO IT ÚRSELF Section
On the right margin of this section, I would like to insert a banner, as indicated in the attached image. Could you please guide me on how to implement this?

Hello,
01. Edit the page > Edit the blog widget and change the layout carousel to grid and set the columns to 2 and items per page to 6.https://postimg.cc/qzws0sMf
02. This is the sidebar area. Navigate to Theme Settings > General and set the sidebar position.
But if you want to hide it on specific pages, navigate to Pages > edit page > scroll down to Page Settings and choose the sidebar. https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/options-for-pages/
For adding and removing widgets in the sidebar, navigate to Appearance > Widgets > In the main widget area, add or remove the widgets.
Please check this manual: https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/widgets-and-sidebars/

Hello,
I have already tried the following:
01. Edited the page → Edited the blog widget → Changed the layout from carousel to grid, set the columns to 2, and items per page to 6.
However, this adjustment altered the section’s design by moving the excerpt below the article image. What I want is to maintain the original design layout, where the excerpt appears beside the image, but have the articles displayed in six blocks on the same page.
02. I also looked into adding a sidebar using custom HTML so I could insert an advert code beside the DO IT ÚRSELF block. Unfortunately, this attempt failed. That is the specific assistance I am requesting.

Hello,
01. The layout where the excerpt appears beside the image is part of the carousel layout structure in WoodMart. When switching to grid, it uses a different design, which is why the layout changes.
Unfortunately, there is no built-in option to display 6 items in a grid while keeping the same side-by-side (carousel) design.
02. Please deactivate all the 3rd party plugins and activate only theme-required plugins on the site and then check the issue. I am sure your issue will be solved. Then Activate the 3rd party plugins one by one and check which plugin is creating the issue for you.
Otherwise, if the issue still exists then keep the 3rd party plugins deactivated and let me so I will check and give you a possible solution.
Best Regards

Hello,
Could you please temporarily disable all plugins that are not related to our theme and switch to the parent theme? Test how it works and let us know if this helps. Keep them turned off so we can test this.
Best Regards
I have disabled all the plugin; can you confirm if it will now work. I await you feedback
Hello,
Please check back your site and check the sidebar on the magazine page, You can add the widgets in the full screen menu area then it will show on the sidebar area.
Best Regards
Thank you for your effort. However, you may have misunderstood my request. What I want is to insert a portrait block for a custom HTML banner specifically beside the section titled “DO It Urself” container — not a navigation bar that appears on the side of the entire magazine page.
Please note that I want the side navigation removed from the right so the page can remain full screen. If you look closely at the section styled like a chess block (which I named “DO It Urself”), it appears centralized when inserted. I moved it to the left side, which created a margin. My intention is to fill that margin by inserting a block, so the layout looks complete and balanced.

Hello, I need to remove the side navigation on the magazine page what do i do
Hello, thank you for your assistance. Could you please help me remove the sidebar from the magazine page and restore it to full width? Currently, the layout appears to be divided into an 8 + 4 column structure, with the 4-column section serving as the sidebar widget. Since I’ve already deleted the widget, I’d like the page to return to its original full-width format. Kindly assist with this adjustment.

Hello,
Navigate to Pages > Edit magazine page and in the bottom of the page settings, disable the sidebar.

Thank you. I have disabled the sidebar, but the magazine page is now centered, how do I make it full width display
Hello,
By default, all page content has width restrictions set in theme settings. To stretch the content beyond the main wrapper and set it to the full width of the screen, the Full-width section block is used. After adding the block to the page, you’ll have a choice between blocks that will wrap the content of the section. This can be a Row, Container, or Blank.
Please follow this guide: https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/full-width-section-block-configuration/
Best Regards
