    Hello,

    I am creating a customer site which contains standard posts and link posts.

    The customer has opted for the “blog post” component to display posts on various pages, with the layout : Title + Excerpt + Read More Link.

    For link posts, the image and the title link to the external link, but the Read More text links to the post, which is useless as it has no content.

    Is there a way to change this ?

    Here is a link to a page, blog posts are at the bottom.

    Thanks,
    Bérangère

    Hey caudebert!

    then why using read more function? just use a custom link instead.

    Regards,

    Hi Andy,

    I’m using Read More on customer request, because the blog also contains standard posts. For link posts, I was expecting Read More to behave like thumbnail and title links, eg open the post’s link and not the post itself. (I hope I’m clear !)

    For link posts, I have tried to hide Read More with css but couldn’t make it because there is no selector available to target link posts only.

    I would be very happy if you have a solution for that !

    Hi!

    I don’t get the difference between the two different posts you are talking about. Can you send us precise links please? so it gets clear to us what you mean. We need to be able to inspect the elements. I think admin access would be helpful as well, post it here as private reply.

    Cheers!

    Hi Andy,

    I have created a test page for you with a “blog post” component.
    http://www.berangere-test.fr/test-page-for-kriesi-supprt/

    The 1st post is a link post. The others are standard posts.

    On the link post, if you click on the thumbnail or the title, you are directed to the external link, which is the expected behaviour. If you click on the Read More text, you are directed to the post itself, which is not relevant for a link post.

    So my question is : for link posts, can I remove the read more text (and only for those posts) or is there a way to have the read more text target the external link ?

    I send you and admin code in the private area.

    Cheers

    Hey!

    hm every post has it’s own post-entry-id, which you can target via CSS. If you want to remove the read more link for your first post only use this code in Quick CSS field:

    .post-entry-325 .read-more-link {
display: none;
}

    Then you could add a manual link into it instead.

    Cheers!

    Hi Andy,

    I can do that of course, but it will not be manageable for my customer when she creates new posts.

    If I understand well, there is no other structural solution than removing the Read More text in blocks which contain link posts.

    It would be “cleaner” if Read More was not displayed for link posts. Other themes handle it this way. I will raise a feature request !

    Thanks anyway,
    Bérangère
