    Hi, I have a few questions that I am hoping you can help with. My blog page can be viewed here http://www.marcgodfreeweddings.co.uk/blog :
    1 – When viewing ‘My Blog’ (blog post excerpts) under each post I can see the date, category and author. I have managed to hide the other element (post count) but also want to hide the ‘in Blog’ link.

    2- Is it possible to redirect the author link to my ‘about page’ when clicked? I don’t want a separate bio page or to display previous posts.

    3- When you view a blog post the breadcrumb trail shows ‘You are here: Home / My Blog / Blog / post title…’ Is there a way I can hide ‘Blog’ which I assume is the category?

    Thanks in advance
    Marc

    Hi Marc!

    Please add following code to Quick CSS in Enfold theme options under General Styling tab

    span.blog-categories, .text-sep-cat {
display: none !important;
}

    Please add following code to Functions.php file in Appearance > Editor

    function add_custom_link(){
?>
<script>
jQuery(window).load(function(){
jQuery('span.fn>a').attr('href','http://marcgodfreeweddings.co.uk/about');
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'add_custom_link');

    Regards,
    Yigit

    Perfect Yigit, that has resolved item 1&2 – Thanks!

    Any thoughts on item 3 the breadcrumb trail and how I can tidy that up?

    Thanks for your help

    Hey Marc!

    Please go to Enfold/framework/php folder and open class-breadcrumb.php file and find

    if('post' == $post_type)
        {
                $category = get_the_category();

    and change it to

    if('post' == $post_type)
        {
                $category = "";

    Cheers!

    Hello,

    Copied and pasted as per your suggestion. I does indeed remove the ‘Blog’ element but still complains about the the line of code that follows it.

    if('post' == $post_type)
        {
                $category = "";
				
                foreach($category as $cat)
                {
                    if(!empty($cat->parent))
                    {
                        $parents = get_category_parents($cat->cat_ID, TRUE, '$$$', FALSE );
                        $parents = explode("$$$", $parents);
                        foreach ($parents as $parent_item)
                        {
                            if($parent_item) $trail[] = $parent_item;
                        }
                        break;
                    }
                }
                
                if(isset($category[0]) && empty($parents))
                {
                	$trail[] = '<a href="'.get_category_link($category[0]->term_id ).'">'.$category[0]->cat_name.'</a>';
                }
                
        }

    Is there anything obvious that you can see that is causing the error I posted above?

    Thanks
    Marc

    Hey Marc!

    Try with this method, add this to the Quick CSS:

    .single-post .breadcrumb-trail span:nth-child(5), .single-post .breadcrumb-trail span:nth-child(6) {
    display: none;
}

    Cheers!
