TFC Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Site URL: https://www.thefavoriteco.com/ Hi there, I had my designer develop consistent blog backgrounds but i cannot figure out how to get the title of the blog to appear as a caption overlay instead of below the image. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks, all! Link to comment
ChrisBartow Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I have this on my list of things that I wish Squarespace did easily. Let me add a section above blog posts or heck maybe even the thumbnail image would work fine for now. Following. Creating websites using Squarespace at Design by Donuts 🍩 Link to comment
tuanphan Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 You can try play around with CSS (Home > Design > Custom CSS) @media screen and (min-width:992px) { /* remove spacing */ .blog-article-spacer { display: none; } /* text overlap image */ .blog-basic-grid--text { position: absolute; left: 0; bottom: 0; width: 100%; background: rgba(0,0,0,0.5); } /* text color */ .blog-basic-grid--text a { color: white !important; } } Email me if you have need any help (free, of course.). Answer within 24 hours. Or send to forum message How to: Setup Password & Share url - Insert Custom CSS - Page Header - Upload Custom Font - Upload File - Find Block ID - Contact Customer Care Link to comment

derricksrandomviews Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Using Avenue in 7.0 I discovered quite by accident that if I add a spacer block at the top of any blog post above the image, in the body, not in the header, that when viewing the post the title goes above the image not below it. This will remove the image from a blog list of promoted blocks, featured posts, but does not effect a blog summary page which I prefer to use anyway. I have custom CSS code loaded that allows me to make a spacer bar half the default minimum height (anywhere I use one). I suspect this will work for most templates, not hard to find out if it works for you. I will provide the code if wanted. I don't have any posts with the spacer bar in place at the moment but I assure you it works. my random views derrick Lee parker Link to comment
