However, if you want to show blog posts from a specific category, enjoy more customization, and display your blog posts in chronological order, you can do so using a repeater or table.Important:When you display blog categories with repeaters or tables, your site visitors cannot comment or 'like' blog categories.Before you begin, make sure you have:
