Hi,

I'm having a few issues with Blog posts I hope someone can help me resolve.

Despite using the 'Excerpt length (in words)' in 'Advanced theme settings' and the 'Insert Read More Tag' in the Visual Editor I cannot get a 'Read More...' link to click to the full Blog post. Alot of users would not know they had to click on the Post heading to get to the full article. Am I missing something?

I also cannot seem to find where to control the display of the 'Display Author Info' for posts. 'Display Author Info' in 'Basic theme settings' does nothing. Similarly 'Include/Exclude specific pages or categories from showing author block' when set to 'Disable on all Pages' does nothing. I have also found that 'Display details on pages' on 'Pages settings' does nothing! :?

Image

These usually simple features to config are driving me MAD! :x

Please help, j.

Hi,

Could you please provide me with a URL to your website and back-end access via PM (click the “Private Message” text underneath my avatar) so that I may analyze it?

Hi,

Regarding your issues:
1) Please check the demo website: https://demo.gavick.com/wordpress/fest/?cat=88 There's no "read more" buttons. If you want to add them, please edit Fest/content.php file and add this line:

Code: Select all
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink(get_the_ID()); ?>" class="btn"><?php _e('Read more', GKTPLNAME); ?></a>


after:
Code: Select all
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>


2) Please edit your post and on the right bottom corner you should find "Post additional params" metabox, here you can decide which elements will be displayed. (here you can disable Author: .. field)

Author info is something different, please check this page:
https://demo.gavick.com/wordpress/fest/?author=1
and this avatar with short bio may be visible under your posts/page, but it won't be displayed until you complete the fields from your profile settings (bio, name, etc.).

Option "Display details on pages" may disable all params (author, category etc), but only on PAGES, not posts.
