@ weslinda
How would such a custom bit of code look like? Do I hook it on to "genesis_after_post_content"?
ZellMemberHi there, I've tested with using excerpt.
The problem with using excerpt is that I wont be able to put the "Read more" tag right where i want the text to break. If i modify the excerpt length to say, 800, I don't even get to see the "Read more" link.
Some help please?
ZellMemberThanks for chipping in. I've tried that option as well, and its not what I was looking for.
I'm looking to manually insert the "read more" link in the post itself, and I don't want to limit the post excerpt a certain amount of characters. The except_more filter doesn't allow me to do so.
Guys I really appreciate the help here!
ZellMemberHey everyone, thanks for chipping in to help me with this problem.
- Is the thumbnail a cut of the larger featured image? Basically, you are using the same image for the thumbnail and the featured image on the post?
- When you share that you are displaying the full featured thumbnail on the post page, are you doing this by inserting it into the post or calling it as a featured image? So it’s added automatically?
1) Yes basically the thumbnail is a miniature sized version of the large image that I intend to put as the main image of the blog post.
2) I'm calling inserting it manually at the moment. Ideally, I'm looking for a solution to set a featured image that automatically insert the full sized image at the top of my post, and a thumbnail version at the blog template page.Limiting the content to 1000 characters resulted in stripped formatting, but when I used blog excerpts instead, the "Read More" link doesn't appear. Instead, its replaced by 3 ellipses that doesn't link to anything.
So in summary, I would ideally want it to
1) Show featured image (full) on post
2) Show featured thumbnail (150 x 150) on blog template (the images are from the same image and just included once with featured image)
3) Ensure there is no stripped tag
@vajrasar:
I'm currently using the featured image checkbox under Admin > Genesis > Theme Settings > Content Archives and I've set it to 150x150.
@surefirewebserv:
Thanks for the snippet! I'm not too sure I understand how to use it though. Can I get a quick explanation on this snippet and how should I use it?Also, does anyone want me to put up my functions.php file?
Thanks all!
