### Templates
You can override any aspect of the display by adding template files in a folder called `bloc/posts/`, the basic template heirarchy is:
- `grid.php`, `slider.php` and `accordion.php` will override the main template/wrapper for those display types.
- `grid-item.php`, `slider-item.php` and `accordion-item.php` will override the template/display for individual posts within those display types.
- `grid-item-{post-type}.php`, `slider-item-{post-type}.php` and `accordion-item-{post-type}.php` will override the template by post type, for example `grid-item-post.php` will override `grid-item.php` for posts and `slider-item-page.php` would override `slider-item.php` for pages.
### Custom properties
```css
:root {
--bloc-posts-gap: 2rem;
--bloc-posts-slider-speed: 500ms;
--bloc-posts-slider-theme: currentColor;
--bloc-posts-accordion-easing: cubic-bezier(0.46, 0.03, 0.52, 0.96);
--bloc-posts-accordion-duration: 250ms;
}
```
### Filters
```php
array_merge($args, ['author_name' => 'admin']));
// Filter to set the no results i.e empty message.
add_filter('bloc/posts/empty', function(string $message, string $display) {
return __('Sorry, there were no matching results.');
}, 10, 2);
```
