Category Page Style

Hi,
When I click on a category of my blog posts, it takes me to that specific category page and shows the blog posts in order. If I have a lot of posts in the category, it will take forever to scroll.
Is there any way to make the category page display the blog posts in a grid style instead of the standard blog display of individual posts with side bar?
For example, is it possible to make the category page display the posts in grid style, just like on the original blog page, without the sidebar?
Thanks in advance,

Thank you for writing. I hope you are doing well.
The category template (category.php) by default prints a list of the different posts for the category page you visit. Unfortunately, at this moment, there’s no way to change the view of that template.
Best,

Is it possible to change the html of the file and have it display titles only?

Thank you for the follow-up.
Yes, you can create a child theme and modify the category template.

Can you suggest which line I can change in the category template? And what should I change it to?

Thank you for the follow-up
Unfortunately, we can not provide support for customizations: https://nicethemes.com/article/support-vs-customizations-2/
The changes you need to do for the category template to have a grid style are not a one-line modification.
Best,
Juan.
