That doesn’t mean much. It’s not a very reliable function in Pages. 

Make sure you have the SuperBlocks plugin installed too. That’s where the CSS styling is saved. 

I have it, but nothing is working. 😞

well I have spent the last 2 hours trying everything to get it working. I am out of ideas. I will wait for your help.

Thank you 🙂

I would need access to your ACP to see what you might be doing wrong or where other problems are. 

I am not sure what your first screenshot even shows. Card title, card caption …? What is that? That has nothing to do with SuperBlocks nor does it seems to be text from the image feed entries shown in your other screenshot. Are you sure you actually placed the block with the SuperBlocks image feed on a page somewhere?

Are you sure you installed the plugin (not just the block templates)?

Yes, that should install the template that is shown as missing. You can check in your plugins section that the plugin was installed and is activated.

This is not supported and there are no plans to offer this. Cutting off the full HTML content can lead to all sorts of problems, especially in the more complex layout grids SuperBlocks includes.

Hello,

I am currently using superblocks to show the blog items on the frontpage of my website and it is working correctly on a PC.
But when visiting from a mobile device it is missing the newest items.

Frontpage shows 5 items, mobile shows 3 items and not the latest ones.

Could you help me with this issue?

What’s the website?

Reducing the amount of posts on mobile is a feature, not a bug. It shouldn’t hide the most recent ones though.

There is a link at the word website.

But its tafeltop.nl

Thanks!

Nope. Doesn’t work.

I see the problem. The layout with 5 entries does indeed hide the first two entries, not the last 3 as intended. I provide an update to SuperBlocks. 
If you don’t want to wait, switch to a different amount of entries than 5. 

[Rob ter Linden]

Ahh ok thanks for the quick answers!

I will wait until the fix is there.

The fix works.

It shows the latest 2 posts. 🙂

What are possible settings for image dimensions? Can I make those entries and entire block smaller?

All settings are described and shown on the product page. As you can see, there are no size settings.

Would it be hard to change those sizes in template?

Hello, I just purchased this plugin and, unfortunately, don't see a user guide or other instructions for how to use it. Sorry, but going through this thread didn't give me the basic answers I seek. Please let me know, thank you!

[sadams101]

I found it...my bad, please ignore my request. I hope to have better questions about it soon!

[sadams101]

For the Supergrid I am hoping that someone might be able to help me to find the CSS to edit the article title/link areas--see the red arrow? This page can also be seen here.

[sadams101]

I finally figured this out...just in case anyone else needs this:

h2 .ipsType_break {
    font-size:1.5rem;
    line-height:1.3;
}

And this is the text area just below:

.ipsType_center .ipsType_light {
    font-size:0.9rem;
    line-height:1.3;
}

On mobile I've noticed some formatting issues on the main category page:

I realize that not everyone is going to have these issues, as my site is quite large, old, and probably has way too many categories and sub-categories (I will be trying to tackle this issue soon). However, the design of this template should probably still take this into account.

Question about superblocks on pages in IPS 4.4 as I am currently running Beta. Does Lazy Load work with superblocks? It appears that the whole page loads all images rather than waiting to load images below the visual fold. Here's an example or page I have created using pages with superblocks:
