Currently, there is only the Recent Posts widget that can be inserted into CMS block or page via native Magento means.
However, your developers are free to customize the widget and modify the layout of the blog list page via additional custom development since the code of our solutions is open.

We would like to use the Magento 2 Aheadworks Blog Plugin for multiple languages. Is there some way in the Blog configuration to redirect automatically?

You may just need to select the required 'Store View' for your French language post via your blog post configurations. Also, I'd suggest that you check and make sure that you are using the most recent Blog version. The latest version provides an option to save posts with the same URL key for different store views.
You'll also find basic configuration instructions in the User Manual here: https://aheadworks.com/resources/blog/user-manual-blog The extension doesn't currently provide any other additional automatic redirect options for blog posts for different store languages, out-of-the-box.
However, you may want to try and configure redirects manually for your system on your side or order our customization service so we could work out a custom solution for your requirements.

We also want to add a standard Blog for posting articles. How do I create another Blog on my Magento site?
Question by: Julia Gorobets on Apr 29, 2022, 7:59 AM
Currently, it is possible to create a separate copy of Blog per store view level but out of the box, there is no possibility to have two blogs in one store view, to my rerget.
However, I would suggest organizing recipes and other articles as separate Categories of Blog.
It is possible to create them in Admin > Content > Blog by Aehadworks > Categories
It is always possible to refer to our User Guide for more information:
https://aheadworks.com/resources/blog/user-manual-blog#:~:text=for%20Aheadworks%20Blog.-,Blog%20Categories,-Categories%20Grid
Also, if yo would like to implement two separate blogs in one store view, perhaps it can be done via additional customization.

Can pages be enabled/disabled by website or store view for multi-store merchants? I.e., can I show the Spanish version of the blog post on the Spanish store view and show the English version of the blog post on my English store view?
Question by: Ben on May 10, 2022, 10:20 PM
Yes, you can do it. You just need to create multiple posts on different store views.
