• Hello,

    my site is http://www.cuckooavenue.com

    im trying to remove the […] icon from my posts. I just want the title visible in the sidebar so people can click that as the link. I cant seem to get rid of it. I am running MH Purity Lite.

    thanks!

  • Hey there

    Actually, MH Purity lite had made this very easy. Go to appearance then click on “Customize” Once you are in the customize section of the them click on “Purity Options” Then you will see:

    “Custom Excerpt More Text”

    From there you will notice the default […] that you are trying to remove. Just change it there. Hope that helps!

    ok, i just added a space instead and it worked, problem is now that the gap is still there where […] existed. Any ideas how to get rid of that dead space?
    thank you for your help, much appreciated!

    Hey there

    Sorry I should have mentioned the trick with it. No need to go into the code. Instead of erasing the […] and trying to save (which doesn’t work) go ahead and erase it and then hit the space bar allowing an empty space in that blank then save it. Voila!

    Hmm I tried this and it works and I don’t see any “gap” It shouldn’t show up on the front end any different

    ar ok, I think there is just a bit of dead space underneath the article title which was where […] was. Thats the bit I want to get rid of. Also you might know the answer to this, im trying to move my main.nav bar higher to the iamge at the top of the page. http://www.cuckooavenue.com Ive played around with the padding but dont know how to move it up and down. this is what the CSS looks like

    /***** Navigation *****/

    .main-nav { font-family: ‘Lato’, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: 900; text-transform: uppercase; text-align:center; }
    .main-nav li { display:inline-block }
    .main-nav li a { display: block; color: #b3b3b3; font-size: 18px; font-size: 1.125rem; line-height: 1; letter-spacing: 1.7px; padding: 12px 0; margin-right: 50px; }
    .main-nav li a:hover { color: #000; }
    .main-nav ul li a, .main-nav ul .current-menu-item:hover > a { border-bottom: 2px solid #fff; }
    .main-nav ul .current-menu-item > a { border-bottom: 2px solid red; color: #000; }
    .main-nav ul ul li a, .main-nav ul ul .current-menu-item:hover > a, .main-nav ul ul .current-menu-item > a { border: none; }
    .main-nav ul li:hover > ul { display: block; background: #fff; z-index: 9999; }
    .main-nav ul ul { display: none; position: absolute; left: -20px; }
    .main-nav ul ul li { padding: 0 20px; width: 13rem; background: #f6f6f6; }
    .main-nav ul ul ul { left: 100%; top: 0; }
    .tinynav { display: none; }

    any ideas? And if theres anything I can help with please let me know! Probably not wordpress related though,ha

    Hey there,

    I wouldn’t stress yourself on removing the “dead” space underneath the title on a white background. Its not visible and no one would ever know its there. As far as the CSS of your navigation menu, I am afraid this is something I actually couldn’t help with.

    I am unfortunately, not a coder πŸ™ But hopefully, someone here will be able to better assist you.
