Hello,

I'm changing theme for a site and would like to know whether I'll be able to perform the following at my homepage with the new theme (because ti doesn't have the same homepage widgets) and the paid version of the plugin.

If you check this demo here:
http://www.acmethemes.com/demo/?theme=corporate-plus

will I be able to recreate exactly the same bloc like the one at the middle of this homepage which is titled “Recent Posts”?

In summary:
– a clickable title (which is not the case here)
– 3 columns
– a thumb followed by excerpt
– the post’s date (and nothing else)
– a clickable footer that links to the full category page
- and large images as they are in this demo

Thanks for your help!

Welcome to our forum.

I have checked your page, i can confirm you can create the grid you mentioned under Recent Post with our plugin,

But you can't create footer link "View More" via our plugin, BTW you can just create a link HTML under the grid output.

Regards

you can use max-height for media wrapper to display same height for thumbnail,
Please see the pro version details here

Please send me your post grid page url, i will send you custom CSS to reduce bottom margin.

Thanks for this.
Yes I already tried with the free version and I'm quite close.
Not yet able to get the images in same sizes though.

What's the difference between free & paid? Skins?

I also was able to add a "view more" link at bottom of the widget by add HTML right after the grid shortcode but I'm getting a lot of empty space in between. Is there a way to reduce to none the grid's bottom margin?

Cheers.
