    I’m having two issues with the Enfold Latest News Widget on this site I am building: https://site.danewscenter.com/:
    1. I have placed the widget in the Displayed Everywhere widget area, but it’s not showing on most pages despite those pages having the default setting on – and were never changed after the page was created. In fact, it’s only displaying on the page ‘Resources’ and its child pages but none of the other pages. I have tested by removing all other widgets and creating a new page, but it will not display.

    2. I have chosen the option ‘display title and excerpt’, but instead it’s displaying the title and the date – no excerpt – on the pages where it does display. Again, I’ve tried several tests but cannot change the behavior. Please have a look. Thanks.

    Hey Blaise,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    The widget is not displaying on other pages because of this css code, which seems to have been added using a custom css and js plugin.

    .sidebar .widget:first-child, .content .sidebar .widget:first-child {
    display: none;
}

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Thank you for spotting that. I was using the code to hide the child page display on https://site.danewscenter.com/resources/. I have now used page id in my custom CSS code to only effect that resources page.

    Now for the second question regarding ‘display title and excerpt’ – any thoughts why the excerpt is not showing?

    Hi,

    No problem. Regarding the excerpts, they are not displaying because the posts were built using the Advance Layout Builder. You have to edit the posts, enable the Excerpt box from Screen Options and add the summary or excerpt manually in the Excerpt field.

    OK, thanks. Perhaps it’s a feature request then to have Advanced Layout Builder content populate your Excerpt option automatically. It seems odd that it wouldn’t.

    Hi,

    to have Advanced Layout Builder content populate your Excerpt option automatically

    It is actually easy to extract a text or a piece of data from the builder and use it as the excerpt but the problem is that we cannot predict or know which element or text you or other users would like to actually use as excerpt, which is why it is left blank.

    Please feel free to open a new thread if you need anything else.

    Have a nice day.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
