Dear Kriesi-Team,
I’m having problems displaying blog posts in the Blog Posts module (Blog Beiträge).
I would like to have the entire contents of the entries displayed on the main page, but unfortunately only a snipped is displayed in the frontend (“Read more”).
What am I doing wrong?Best regards
GrobiHey Grobi,
Well, the blog post element shows only excerpts by design, it is not meant to show the whole article.
Best regards,
VictoriaHi Victoria,
first of all thanks for your quick answer.
I’m a bit surprised, maybe there is a misunderstanding…
It’s certainly not ideal that I use the German WordPress / Enfold version, but in my backend the used Avia module is called “Blog Beiträge” – I hope we mean the same thing.In this tool, I can select under the option “Blog Inhaltslänge”, wich means “content length” three different options. I can choose if I want
– to display the complete content
– a text excerpt or
– a text excerpt with a read-more link.
(Please see screenshot 01: https://i.postimg.cc/prQhqc1Z/Kriesi-Support-Blog-entry-01.png).
In the sub-line (or caption) of “Blog Inhaltslänge” i can read: Should the complete entry should be displayed or only a small excerpt from the text?
If I understand your statement correctly, then there is a contradiction here.I’ve already built the wanted effect on another page (see screenshot 02: https://i.postimg.cc/DfCKbPZk/Kriesi-Support-Blog-entry-02.png). There, the entire text of the deposited article is displayed within the module “Blog Posts”.
I compared the settings on this other page with the current settings and I’m pretty sure they’re the same (if I did not miss anything).But something I must have done wrong!
Can you help me?Best regards
GrobiHi,
Sorry for the late reply, I have taken a look at your page and see that you are using Enfold v4.2.2 with WordPress v5.1.1
Please try updating to Enfold v4.5.6, if this doesn’t help please include admin login in the Private Content area so we can be of more assistance.Best regards,
MikeHi Mike,
nice to “read” from you! ;-)You’re right I have not installed the latest enfold version.
Please give me a little time to arrange that with my customer, hunting for the token key….
After I get this, I will give a quick response.Best regards
MarkusHi there,
sorry for the delay!Unfortunately, even now – in the meanwhile I have got the token key and installed version 4.5.6 – the blog posts are displayed only with an excerpt, but not completely.
I hope, that you can you do something!
Best regards
GrobiHi Grobi,
The blog post element does not show full texts. You can have the default WordPress blog page then blog posts can be shown in full.
Best regards,
VictoriaHi Victoria,
thank you for your reply.But I still do not understand…
Enfold is giving me the option, to display the full content of a blog post – also in the newest version. Please see my screenshot: https://i.postimg.cc/prQhqc1Z/Kriesi-Support-Blog-entry-01.png.
Why should Enfold make this offer – when it does not work?
And – i did it already on another enfold-page! As you can see here, the full text is shown. https://i.postimg.cc/DfCKbPZk/Kriesi-Support-Blog-entry-02.png
This is a real contradiction for me. Or what do I not understand?Best regards
GrobiHi,
i think, I got it!
I was wondering, why the excerpt and the excerpt with “read-more-link” were not displayed as well. So the mistake has not to do with “one option” it has to do with “every option”. So I took a look on the two posts I wanted to display and I found out, that the complete content was shown on the mainpage, when I built the post with the classic layout editor. After again I used the advanced layout builder the presentation stopped again.Can you confirm that?
I fear that the reason for this behavior lies in the nature of blogs and posts and that only a reduced content can be displayed. But to be honest, it’s a pity not to be able using this cool Avia layout builder to design blog posts.
Or is there still a possibility? The hope dies last …. ;-)
Best regards
GrobiHi Grobi,
Please post us your login credentials (in the “private data” field), so we can take a look at your backend.
- Install and activate ” Temporary Login Without Password “.
- Go to ” Users > Temporary Logins ” on the left-side menu.
- Click ” Create New “.
- Add the email address for the account ( you can use (Email address hidden if logged out) ), as well as the ” Role ” making that the highest possible and the expiry about four days
( do be sure that we have enough time to debug ). - Click ” Submit “.
- You’ll now have a temporary account. Please provide us here in the private section the URL, so we can login and help you out.
When your issue is fixed, you can always remove the plugin!
If you prefer to not use the plugin, you can manually create an admin user and post the login credentials in the “private data” field.Best regards,
VictoriaHi Grobi,
Posts built with the Avia Layout builder use a different template and complicated shortcodes and so this can cause conflicts when rendering within another Avia element.
Normally, there is a separate News or blog page where you can show full content and only previews on the main page.
Best regards,
VictoriaHi Victoria,
thank you very much for help and information.
Now I know how to use it!
Best regards!
GrobiHi,
Glad Victoria could help, we will close this now. Thank you for using Enfold.For your information, you can take a look at Enfold documentation here
For any other questions or issues, feel free to start new threads in the Enfold forum and we will gladly try to help you :)Best regards,
Mike
