Issues With Bog Post Functionality After Designing Site With Assembler Theme
-
Hello,
I recently redesigned my site using WordPress’ “Assembler” Theme. Most things are great. However, there is no functionality on blog postings. As in, I have lost the ability on the blog portion of my site for each posting to show the date published, the “next post” feature, and also “related posts.” It’s absolutely terrible and it cannot be fixed via the normal “settings” feature in my WordPress dashboard. I have all of these settings turned on already in the dashboard, but they do not work since I switched to use the Assembler theme to create my own site. Also, I simply have the basic, run of the mill Explorer package. I don’t have access to all kinds of plugins with this package. Perhaps I broke something when I designed the site, I have no clue. I did delete something that it told me not to delete, but that was on the main home page. I don’t know if its relevant to what is going on with individual blog postings.
Any help is appreciated. I’ve never done any of this site designing before but if anyone can help figure out what is wrong here I’d be very grateful.
Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
To show metadata about the posts such as their date and author information, you will need to add the relevant blocks.
You may refer to these guides:
- https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/query-loop-block/#date-block
- https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/query-loop-block/#author-block
You will need to add them inside the Post Template block on the home page.
For single posts, you can go to Appearance > Editor > Templates > Single Posts and add those blocks at the location where you want them to display.
To add “Next” and “Previous” post information, you can add the Pagination block: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/query-loop-block/#pagination-previous-post-and-next-post
To show related posts, you can add the Related Posts block: https://wordpress.com/support/related-posts/
Let us know if you have any questions.
