The Blogs List block in the BeyondCart mobile app builder allows you to showcase blog posts, helping to engage users with your content directly within the app. Here's a breakdown of the settings available and how to effectively use them.
Settings
Boxed: Toggle this on to display the blogs within a boxed layout, which gives a subtle outline around each blog item.
Disable Heading: When enabled, the heading text is hidden. Useful if you prefer a cleaner look or if you are embedding this section into a larger block.
Text Heading: Customize the heading text displayed above the blog list, such as “Latest Posts” or “News & Updates.”
Type: Choose between “Recent” and ?
Recent: Displays the most recently published posts.
Limit: Set a limit on the number of blog items displayed. Ideal for focusing on a select number of posts.
Width & Height: Adjust the dimensions of each blog item to better fit your app’s layout.
Padding Tab
The Padding tab allows you to add spacing around the Blogs List block for improved aesthetics and spacing within the app interface. Adjust padding values to match the overall design of your app.
Layout Tab
Select from two main layout styles to display blog items:
List: A vertical list layout, ideal for reading-intensive apps or sections with lengthy descriptions.
Carousel: Allows users to swipe through the blog items horizontally, creating a dynamic and interactive experience.
Tips for Optimizing the Blogs List Block
Limit Posts: Keep the limit to around 3-5 posts to ensure faster loading and prevent overwhelming users with too much content.
Use Carousel for Highlighted Content: If you have featured articles or recent news, the Carousel layout is perfect for showcasing these items interactively.
Consistent Dimensions: Ensure the Width and Height settings align with other elements on the page to maintain a cohesive design.
