In this article I share the steps to display the list of standard blog posts on Minimum Pro‘s front page with working pagination.
Step 1
Rename front-page.php to home.php and replace the entire code with the following:
// Enqueue scripts
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'minimum_front_page_enqueue_scripts' );
function minimum_front_page_enqueue_scripts() {
// Load scripts only if custom background is being used
if ( ! get_background_image() )
return;
// Enqueue Backstretch scripts
wp_enqueue_script( 'minimum-backstretch', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/backstretch.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0.0', true );
wp_enqueue_script( 'minimum-backstretch-set', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/backstretch-set.js' , array( 'jquery', 'minimum-backstretch' ), '1.0.0', true );
wp_localize_script( 'minimum-backstretch-set', 'BackStretchImg', array( 'src' => str_replace( 'http:', '', get_background_image() ) ) );
// Add custom body class
add_filter( 'body_class', 'minimum_add_body_class' );
}
// Minimum custom body class
function minimum_add_body_class( $classes ) {
$classes[] = 'minimum';
return $classes;
}
// Add widget support for homepage if widgets are being used
add_action( 'genesis_meta', 'minimum_front_page_genesis_meta' );
function minimum_front_page_genesis_meta() {
// if ( is_home() ) {
// Remove entry meta in entry footer and Genesis loop
// remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
// Add Genesis grid loop
// add_action( 'genesis_loop', 'minimum_grid_loop_helper' );
// Remove entry footer functions
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_open', 5 );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_close', 15 );
// Force full width content layout
// add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' );
// }
if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home-featured-1' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-featured-2' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-featured-3' ) || is_active_sidebar( 'home-featured-4' ) ) {
// Add Home featured Widget areas
add_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'minimum_home_featured', 15 );
}
}
// Add markup for homepage widgets
function minimum_home_featured() {
printf( '<div %s>', genesis_attr( 'home-featured' ) );
genesis_structural_wrap( 'home-featured' );
genesis_widget_area( 'home-featured-1', array(
'before' => '<div class="home-featured-1 widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
) );
genesis_widget_area( 'home-featured-2', array(
'before' => '<div class="home-featured-2 widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
) );
genesis_widget_area( 'home-featured-3', array(
'before' => '<div class="home-featured-3 widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
) );
genesis_widget_area( 'home-featured-4', array(
'before' => '<div class="home-featured-4 widget-area">',
'after' => '</div>',
) );
genesis_structural_wrap( 'home-featured', 'close' );
echo '</div>'; // end .home-featured
}
// Genesis grid loop
// function minimum_grid_loop_helper() {
// if ( function_exists( 'genesis_grid_loop' ) ) {
// genesis_grid_loop( array(
// 'features' => 0,
// 'feature_image_size' => 0,
// 'feature_content_limit' => 0,
// 'grid_image_size' => 0,
// 'grid_content_limit' => 250,
// 'more' => __( '[Read more]', 'minimum' ),
// ) );
// } else {
// genesis_standard_loop();
// }
// }
// Run the Genesis loop
genesis();Step 2
Go to Settings > Reading and set “Front page displays” to Your latest posts.
Step 3
Go to Genesis > Theme Settings > Content Archives and set the posts list to appear per your desired configuration.
