Problems with masonry excerpts

[syahrul123]

Hi, i ned your help again.

1) On my site home page, I am using the masonry to display my recent blog posts. First, I would like to know how do i make the size of the thumbnails and tile size the same for all the tiles?
2) I would like to remove the excerpts of the posts in the tiles.
3) There is a description called ‘article’ in each tile above the post title. How do i remove it.
In essence, i want each tile to only contain the thumbnail and post title.

Another issue is with the menu. I would not like to use a menu. Instead i would like to implement a search bar on that same space.

Thank you.

Hi there,

1) This is a bit of a tricky one.. The images aren’t fixed height and cropped as users have a large range of needs for the featured images. Would it help to have an option for same height images?

2) You’ll need to create a page for the blog, and then set this page in Settings > Reading – that way you can control the output and disable the excerpt. Alternatively, just add this custom css:

.blog .blog-item .excerpt {
display: none;
}

3) Add this custom css:

.masonry-items .blog-item h6 {
display: none;
}

You can hide the menu with this custom css:

#main-nav {
display: none;
}

If you want a search bar, you’d be best to do what I said above and create your own page, then you can add a search bar using the page builder.

Hope that helps.

1) I believe that would be great, as i’m sure there are users who would also like same size images throughout!
2) Thank you for your help, I managed to remove the excepts.

Also, i would like to render some google adsense ads on every page posts. I already have the HTML code. Which php file should i put it in. I already tried single.php, but it creates the add at the very bottom of the page. I want the ad to be at the end of each post entry, and not all they way at the bottom of the page.

I would also like to remove the related articles which displays at the bottom.

Hi,

I’m not seeing any related articles in your homepage.
Did you already sorted that out?
