Single Post Settings
Control how individual blog posts look and what elements appear on the page. You'll find all of these options under Appearance > Customize > Single Post.
#Layout Style
Choose between two layout styles for your blog posts:
- Classic - a traditional single-column layout with the featured image at the top, followed by the post content below. Clean and familiar.
- Split - a two-column layout where the featured image or media sits on one side and the post content on the other. Great for a more modern, magazine-style look.
#Header Tab
The Header tab controls what appears at the top of each post:
- Breadcrumbs - toggle the breadcrumb navigation trail on or off (e.g., Home > Blog > Post Title)
- Post Meta - show or hide metadata like the publication date, author, and reading time
- Categories - display the post categories near the title area
#Content Tab
The Content tab controls elements within the post body:
- Featured Image - toggle whether the main image appears at the top of the post
- Tags - show or hide the tag list at the bottom of the post
- Share Section - enable social sharing buttons so readers can easily share your post
- Comments - turn the comments section on or off
#Related Posts Tab
The Related Posts section (new in v1.2) lets you display a "Read Also" section at the bottom of each post, encouraging visitors to explore more of your content.
-
Read Also - toggle the entire related posts section on or off
-
Number of Posts - choose how many related posts to show (between 2 and 4)
-
Source - pick where the related posts come from:
- Same Category - pulls posts from the same category as the current post. If there aren't enough posts in that category, it automatically fills the remaining spots with your latest posts.
- Latest - always shows your most recent posts
- Random - displays a random selection of posts for variety
-
Thumbnails - toggle whether thumbnail images appear next to each related post
The "Same Category" source option is usually the best choice - it shows readers content that's most relevant to what they're already reading.
#Navigation Tab
The Navigation tab controls how readers move between posts:
- Previous/Next Navigation - toggle the prev/next post links at the bottom of each post
- Thumbnails - show small thumbnail images alongside the prev/next links for a more visual navigation experience
- Auto-Load Next Post - when enabled, the next post automatically loads below the current one as the reader scrolls down, creating an infinite reading experience (like a social media feed)
