Blog Element Excerpt Read More Text Duplication …

Hi,

Thank you for the info.

You may need to manually remove this line from the includes/loop-index.php file, around line 151.

$current_post['content'] = $blog_content == 'content' ? get_the_content( __( 'Read more', 'avia_framework' ) . $more_link_arrow ) : get_the_excerpt();
			$current_post['content'] = $blog_content == 'excerpt_read_more' ? $current_post['content'] . '
<div class="read-more-link"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" class="more-link">' . __( 'Read more', 'avia_framework' ) . $more_link_arrow . '</a></div>
' : $current_post['content'];
			$current_post['before_content'] = '';

To override the template, you can create a copy of /includes/loop-index.php in your child theme folder.

Another option is to edit the filter and ensure that the $current_post[‘content’] is blank before appending the new read more link.

$current_post['content'] = "";

Hi,

On the another option can you tell me exactly where to edit the filter and add the line: $current_post[‘content’] = “”;

Try to replace the whole post-format-standard filter with this:

function avf_modify_standard_post_content( $current_post ) {
    if ( $current_post['post_format'] === 'standard' ) {
        global $avia_config;

        $blog_content = ! empty( $avia_config['blog_content'] ) ? $avia_config['blog_content'] : 'content';
        $more_link_arrow = '<span class="more-link-arrow"></span>';

        $categories = get_the_category( $current_post['ID'] );
        $category_names = wp_list_pluck( $categories, 'name' );

        if ( in_array( 'Dharma Talks', $category_names ) ) {
            $read_more_text = __( 'Listen/Read More', 'avia_framework' );
        } elseif ( in_array( 'Music Recordings', $category_names ) ) {
            $read_more_text = __( 'Listen to this', 'avia_framework' );
        } else {
            $read_more_text = __( 'Read more', 'avia_framework' );
        }

        $current_post['before_content'] = '';

        if ( $blog_content == 'content' ) {
            $current_post['content'] = get_the_content( $read_more_text . $more_link_arrow );
        } else {
            $current_post['content'] = get_the_excerpt();
        }

        if ( $blog_content === 'excerpt_read_more' ) {
            $current_post['content'] .= '
<div class="read-more-link"><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" class="more-link">' . esc_html( $read_more_text ) . $more_link_arrow . '</a></div>
';
        }
    }

    return $current_post;
}
add_filter( 'post-format-standard', 'avf_modify_standard_post_content' );

This block resets the post content to blank, then re-adds the post content or excerpt.

$current_post['before_content'] = '';

        if ( $blog_content == 'content' ) {
            $current_post['content'] = get_the_content( $read_more_text . $more_link_arrow );
        } else {
            $current_post['content'] = get_the_excerpt();
        }
