Overview
Before you begin
Before you start creating your News Listing Page, we suggest creating some Posts so that you have content to display. You can still use the News Listing template if you don't have any Posts—the Page may just look rather empty.
Setting up a News Listing Page
Quick guide
Step 1: Select the News Listing template
- In the left menu, select Pages > Add New Page.
- Fill out the Add title field.
- In the Settings sidebar (right side), locate the "Template" field and click Default template.
- Click Default template and select News Listing from the dropdown.
- Click Save draft (top right). Refresh the page.
- Unable to save? Make sure you filled out the Add title field.
- You can now begin adding content.
Step 2: Add content to the Page
A Page using the News Listing template will automatically display a list of the minisite's Posts in reverse chronological order.
You have the option of including a Featured Article (Post) at the top of the page:
- To include a Featured Article (Post) at the top of the Page, leave Yes selected. Use the dropdown to select either a Featured Post or a Featured Post Category.
- To skip having a Featured Article, click No.
Step 3: Save and publish
- To save your progress, click Save Draft. Note that the classic ACF editor does not have an autosave feature.
- To publish the Page, click Publish.
