How do I format a list of blog posts

[Geoff_Tothill]

I am using the blog post macro to embed a list of recent blog posts into a landing page / dashboard. The titles of the posts seem to be in a very large font that I do not seem able to change.

Does anyone know how I can format the output provided by the blog post macro so that it better fits the rest of the page into which it is embedded?

Any help much appreciated.

Hi Geoff,

If you set that macro's Content Type to Display property to "titles" it'll reduce the font to a more manageable size.  I don't see any other documented methods to change the font size, so you'll need to play with CSS if that doesn't do the trick for you.

Good luck!

Thanks so much for your reply - most helpful. It was the one configuration that I hadn't tried! It seems a shame that the macro does not have switches that allow the inserted content to more closely match the styles and format of the page.

I'm reluctant to mess around too much with the css on this, the hosted version - for once in my life I'm resisting the temptation to fiddle around too much with the base configuration.

All the best and thanks again,

Geoff.

Hi,

you could also place your macro inside a DIV macro and style the DIV macro as you like. I tried that combination with the excerpt include and it worked nicely.
