Hello Amrein Support

How can use the "Show Category" item for the web part in this page?

Abbas,
if you enable the web part's "Show Category Tabs" setting, then please also set the web part's "Show extra columns" to your Category list column.
In case of SP 2019 "modern" please add the below to the web part's "Configuration" setting:

tabs=1
extracolumns=name of the list column holding the category

Hello Amrein blog support

I provided your recomended configuration in this blog. And thre are some problems for me:

1- The height of each item is not enough for showing the pictures and items. It usually cutted the head of the picture or ignores the footer. So, Is it possible to increase the height of the items?

2- It organizes the items from left of the page to the right. But our native language is from right to the left. How can I change this configuration
to the "right to left" alignment ?

3- Why does it shows the "publication date" tow times? (under the title and in the footer) Is it possible to hide one of them?

regards,
Abbas
