How to show a title and featured image from each post in a category

[nbdayan]

If I add breadcrumbs to my site I see the category name. If I click on the category I see a very long list of all posts in that category. To find a post I would have to scroll through many pages.
Is there a way to see something shorter such as just the title and a featured image from each post in that category?

I am not sure if it is relevant but I am using the Modern Studio Pro theme.

Thanks in advance!

You can use a custom category.php or archive.php template in any Genesis child theme to modify the default output of your entries on any archive page type.

And then add code to the template file to remove or modify the elements in question.

Can you provide a link to your website so we can take a look? Sounds like you probably only need to add the Genesis Grid Loop plugin. You can set it up on your main blog page, categories, and tags.

@nbdayan I do not see breadcrumbs enabled anywhere. Can you enable them and share a post where they are located?

I disabled them when I saw that it wasn't very user-friendly.

I have added them to a test site with the same theme.

Thank you so if you add the Genesis Grid Loop plugin as I suggested, would use that. But you also have your posts set to display "full content".

If you go to Genesis > Theme Settings, you can set up a "content limit" of say, 300 or 400 words and then set it to display the Featured Image (full image or another side, float the image to the left or right, etc. That's a built in feature of Genesis.

It works! Thanks!
Is there no way to add the title only (with no words) since 0 words show unlimited content?

The plugin could do something similar but not exactly like that. You would need a quite a bit of customization on Modern Studio Pro to achieve that based on how that theme code was created. The featured image in MSP is made to display within the content area so there would need to be a little heavy lifting to do that with MSP.
