Dante Recent Posts Display

[jfarr]

I’m curious if there’s an easy way to display just partial text with a “read more” link for a “recent post” on the homepage instead of showing the photo cover?

I know how with css and display none to eliminate to just show the title text and date text but I would like it to show an excerpt of text as well.

Hi

The recent posts element does support post excerpt. You can set the ‘excerpt length’. To remove the image, you can either display none with css or on the post itself, for the thumbnail settings, select ‘none’.

Hope this helps!

Has anyone found a resolution to the original request of showing a “read more” link at the bottom of the recent post element?

Hi,

@tsimarketing – Please open to edit recent-posts.php at /dante/swift-framework/page-builder/builder/shortcodes through FTP software.
Find this code-:
$items .= '<div class="excerpt">'. $post_excerpt .'</div>';

Change to-:
$items .= '<div class="excerpt">'. $post_excerpt .'<p align="right" ><a href="'.$post_permalink.'">Read More...</a><p></div>';

Hope that should work and let me know your feedback.

Thanks
