Hi,
I use the in the blog “excerpt with read more link” and at the moment only the title and read more are links. I would like to have also the excerpt the same link as the title and read more. Basicaly everything should be the link. Is this possible?
Thank you
Hi ananda,
I don’t think it would be a good idea since sometimes excerpts contain links and it would cause undesirable result and breaks the layout.
Best regards,
Nikko
Hi Nikko
Thank you for the reply – well I don’t use any links in the excerpts so to give people more options to continue reading I would like to make the excerpt as a link. I know it is not ideal but I had already customers asking: “why is the text so short and I can not continue with reading?” – despite having a title and read more as a link :-/ Sometimes logic is simply not enough ;-)

Ananda
Hi Ananda,
I understand your concern, if blog breaks, this is one of the things you should look for.
In your child theme, create a folder called includes, then paste loop-index.php (copy it from enfold’s loop-index.php in includes folder).
Inside loop-index.php, find this line of code (line 216):
$content_output .= $content;
replace with:
$content_output .= '<a href="' . $link . '">' . $content . '</a>';
Hope this helps. :)
Best regards,
Nikko
Thx Nikko, that did the job :-)

Ananda
