Blog posts

The Blog Posts section allows you to showcase articles either by dynamically pulling posts from a selected blog or by manually adding specific articles. It’s a versatile content section ideal for sharing updates, news, or guides to keep your customers engaged.

If the "Show posts from selected blog" setting is enabled, the section will automatically display recent posts from the chosen blog. If disabled, you can manually add Article blocks and select posts individually.


How to Configure the Blog Posts

  1. In Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes.

  2. Click Customize next to the Elemento theme.

  3. In the theme editor, navigate to the desired page template (e.g., Home page) using the top preview dropdown.

  4. In the left sidebar, click Add section, then select Blog Posts, or locate it if it’s already added.

  5. Choose the blog to display posts from and customize settings such as the number of posts, layout style, excerpt length, and display of featured images.

  6. You can drag and drop this section to reorder it on the page.

  7. Click Save.
