  I have added a blog block, but when I try to link to blog posts (either by tag, or even direct name), it does not seem to be able to find any blog post. Not sure what I am doing wrong. The site is under construction, so not published to the public, I wonder if it’s the issue.

  Hi there!

  Could you please give us some more details? I can see you have added the Blog Posts block to one of your pages and all the posts seem to be displaying correctly there. Were you able to fix that? Or were you looking for something else?

  You can find more information about the block here:

  Indeed, it’s working now – I had not “published” the individual blog posts, which is the reason why they were not showing up (as I haven’t published the site yet, I thought they would as in a test mode).
  I am not looking to understand why the images are not showing on the blog block. Trial and error should get met there.

  I found how to put a pic! … now I have to format it correctly so it does not get cut off. I am sure I can find the requirements somewhere.

  Hi there,

  Glad that you were able to get the images to display. Let us know if you continue to have a cropping issue. The main column width of the theme is 750px.

  Thanks,
