Is there a way to adjust the "View Latest Blogs" module that EasyBlog released so that within the module the blogs appear in the same text/photo/sizing layout as the normal blog area?

Right now with my "Latest Blog Posts" module, the title of the post is much smaller than it is when viewing the same post on the actual blog area, plus the title of the blog is underneath the image, as opposed to above the image when viewed within the standard blog area.

Are there ways to adjust this, as right now the placement and size of the post title combined with the image sitting above the post title is not very appealing for a homepage when trying to display the most recent content.

Attached are two reference photos, the first being how the post looks on my homepage using the Latest Blogs module (with small post title and with title below the image), and a photo of how it looks on the actual blog area.
Hello Josh Rester-Zodrow,

Sorry for late reply to this,
I have a little bit confusing here, because the Easyblog frontpage should be can display the latest blog post in your site, so you no need to using the latest blog post module publishing in your homepage, or you would like display some specific latest blog post in your homepage?

If you would like to display the latest blog post module in your homepage, can i have your Joomla backend and FTP access so we can help you inspect on this in your site? Please advise.

because by default the blog title and the photo is follow the module css.

Hi Arlex,

I'm using a specific Rocket Themes Jommla template that has a lot of other modules on the homepage and my goal was to incorporate EasyBlog on the homepage of my template as well and from another forum post I submitted I gathered that the only way to accomplish that was to use the Latest Blog Post EasyBlog module and stick that module on the homepage of my template.

The new screenshot I've attached is a larger view of the top half of my homepage (Rocket Themes "Corvus" template). Underneath the top Rocket Theme mosaic module is where I have attached the EasyBlog "Latest Blog Post" module, because I was under the impression that was the only way to have my blog posts show up on the homepage while still incorporating other homepage templates and content.

My goal is to use the EasyBlog software to post frequent homepage content in the same vein of sites like Engadget.com, while still maintaining other modules around it.

Is there an easier way to go about this and have my latest blog content appear on the homepage without the use of the Latest Blog Module? From what I'm gathering from your reply is that the EasyBlog frontpage can obviously display all my posts, but am I able to plug the frontpage directly into my homepage template along with my other homepage content and modules?

Thank you in advance!

Hello Josh,

Thanks for getting back to us,
I have checked in your sample you would like your frontpage to be similar with Engadget.com style,
Yes, that was possible but you need to check your template position is it can accommodated inside the space position and disable the setting from your Easyblog backend and which text you wouldn't like to display in your frontpage.
Can I have your Joomla backend and FTP access so we can help you test on this? Please advise.
