I have been trying to create a menu item that shows all articles in category blog layout for tags. I followed webchun's instructions here:
How to show tagged items in category blog layout
(which it won't let me add more to the question because it's locked)
I got it to work, even got the read more button added (though I don't think correctly, because it doesn't check if there is a read more just automatically adds it), but what I need is to add other elements to it which are not options. I want to add the published date, the author, and the category. I know that this is an override, but I have no idea what parts to copy. I tried copying somethings from blog_items.php under my (custom) template, but it just stopped the page from loading).
