Hello,

Please add this code into your custom css box:

.latest_blog .no_carousel .blog-item {
 height: 425px !important;
}

Best regards!

Hello,

To link images too, please go to file vc_templates/latest_blog.php and find this line:
$output .= '<img src="'.esc_url(codeless_image_by_id(get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'port2', 'url')).'" alt="">';
Replace with this:
$output .= '<a href="'.esc_attr(get_permalink()).'"><img src="'.esc_url(codeless_image_by_id(get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'port2', 'url')).'" alt=""></a>';

Best regards!
