We purchased Bifrost theme recently especially to use this layout https://neuronthemes.com/bifrost/blog-boxed-metro/. But it looks like we can't set an auto query to populate the latest posts but select some random posts manually. This seems like only for static posts but we want it to show the latest posts automatically.
I am very sorry for the late reply, we were not working on the weekend.
Unfortunately, that's not possible to show the latest posts on the Metro layout automatically, because as you could see you need to select which post you want to display with the Metro layout and to select its column.
Well, it is quite unexpected when the concern is blog feed. It doesn't make sense add the newest blog post manually every time. Any chance you can update this feature in the future update?
Also, it says that pagination will be added if there are more posts than the display number e.g. 5 posts per page but I am not seeing any pagination. Could you explain this, please?
I am so sorry for the late reply, somehow I missed your ticket.
Unfortunately, you can't do either of them, but if you want we can send you some CSS code to change the width automatically for grid post layout, not the posts with metro layout, and it will work as metro layout, we can set the width for posts and it will be repeated, and then you can show the latest post and the pagination.
Hi There,

Could you help us to know how to do it?
I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi
That sounds good. Please send me the CSS code. Hope it will fix all my issues.
Thanks
Hi,
First, you have to add a class to the element so it doesn't mess with other elements, go to Advanced Tab of Element and add the class: my-custom-metro
Add as following in Apperance > Customize > Additional CSS.
.my-custom-metro .selector:nth-child(1) {flex: 0 0 66.66667% !important;
max-width: 66.66667% important;
} .my-custom-metro .selector:nth-child(2) {
flex: 0 0 33.3333% !important;
max-width: 33.3333% important;
} .my-custom-metro .selector:nth-child(3) {
flex: 0 0 33.3333% !important;
max-width: 33.3333% important;
} .my-custom-metro .selector:nth-child(4),
.my-custom-metro .selector:nth-child(5) {
flex: 0 0 50% !important;
max-width: 50% important;
}
Feel free to ask for anything you need.
