    I have the shortcode for inserting blog items and find it works within accordians, tabs, etc. So far so good. However, is there an option that removes images, titles, and meta (date, author, comment count)? All three of the options for blog layout have images involved in them and put a gray box in when there is none.

    If there is nothing I can do within the shortcode, is there a way to do this in the CSS for a particular category, perhaps?

    Or a plugin for inserting posts that gives me more control over what appears?

    Hi,

    Can you post the link to your blog page please? a screenshot/mockup of what you want to achieve would be helpful too.

    Josue, I used the Custom Content Shortcode Plugin another person on your forum recommended for this and it worked well. It would be awesome if there were more choices when using the blog shortcode provided in the theme; you have 3 options and all use photos, for example; you do not give options to turn off title, excerpt, comments, author. So in the end there are just very few options and it seems it would be fairly easy to provide those?

    In any case the plugin works and afforded me far more flexibility, so I’m set.

    To see what I was attempting to accomplish you can click on any of the tabs on this page:
    http://realfreshclient.com/banetti/portfolio/energy-ep/
    (use “gizm0” to get past privacy login screen).

    The text in each of those tabs is being pulled in from posts. Each case study will be used in several places on the site, so I wanted to use post content within them.

    This also gives me an opportunity to create versions of this page with each tab open on load, so that i can send people to specific case studies in the menu; I tried to accomplish that using an anchor/jump link, but it jumped to the bottom of the tabbed area rather than the top. So to make a page for each company, I’m going to have to make an actual page for each company; there’s no way to indicate which tab should be open for different instances.

    Thanks for checking in with me on this. I don’t need any more assistance with it but wanted others to know how I solved it.
