In reply to: [Agama] Edit Blog Category PageThanks, worked fine for me, I just want to add, that you have to switch off “Read More”-links in the customizer, otherwise it is doubled on posts without a manual exerpt.
To have them styled as usual (in the agama style!), don’t forget to add the class to the html-element:
function custom_excerpt($text) { // custom 'read more' link if (strpos($text, '[...]')) { $excerpt = strip_tags(str_replace('[...]', '... <a class="more-link" href="'.get_permalink().'">Read More...</a>', $text), "<a>"); } else { $excerpt = '<p>' . $text . '<a class="more-link" href="'.get_permalink().'">Read More...</a></p>'; } return $excerpt; } add_filter('the_excerpt', 'custom_excerpt');- This reply was modified 6 years, 8 months ago by dorsch.
Hello there,
thanks for that extremely quick support, worked fine.Regards
Hello Vrunda Kansara,
thanks for your quick reply.
Sadly, the custom classes do not solve every problem, I already use them.
# Still thousands of reviews cluttering the database.
# Adding IDs is imposssible in combination with styling through the plug-ins interface. If I style them completly through a class, so I can add both, class and ID for a modal for example or GA-tracking, the whole plug-in doesn’t make sense any more… Too, it’s dramatically limiting the useability of the blocks, if I can’t add custom html. Means no additional heading or a link in a timeline-block. No Buttons, headings, lists in that price-list block, which would make them a good and versatile option for many usecases. (yeah, i know I can put a class on the container and a selector chain down to the “a” to make it look like a button… but what about headings for SEO reasons, lists for many features?)
# Importing the Database via SQL is not the problem with the IDs, using the Import/Export through the WP-Interface is. This is not a big thing, as these function fails on so many ends, that it isn’t an option in the most usecases anyway. I just brought this up, cause this is just another (very minor) inconvinience caused by that ID-method.
Not gonna discuss user experience, cause this depends on, what kind of user you have in mind. I don’t know, what kind of users you aim at and in what direction the future development goes. So this is not really a support-request, but a feedback.
I wanted to point out, that this use of IDs creates a lot of unnesseccary restrictions. It puts the plug-in more on the side of page-builders, where all the options are served through the interface, but whenever the premade options do not fit my needs, I am doomed. So I could create a feature-request for all that above (give me lists and headings in price-lists etc.), but that would end up in a kind of page-builder, not in a versatile helper, that gives me a basement to create whatever I want to achive on top of it.And at this point, I do not see the use of the plug-in anymore: Depending on the project, I would go for a theme + pagebuilder or for something custommade with just some plug-ins as helpers and timesavers. If the helper fails at some needs, and I not only have to write it from the scratch, but too overwrite, it doesn’t save me time.
But again: I am maybe just not the kind of user, the plug-in is made for. I anyway appreciate your time and effort! Thank you.
Kind regards

In reply to: [Twenty Fifteen] Hacked site, theme under suspicionThanks for your answers.
@the Hack Repair Guy
Possibly the theme has not been updated, because it wasn’t the activ one, and that was the problem (or not). Yes, I am lazy, I only hit “yes” on the suggested updates… What I know for sure is, that it was not a login at the FTP, because the server-logs did not record any log-in for that account in the relevant time span.@jan Dembowski
Yes, everyone has it and that’s the reason I thought, if there’s any chance, better report it. 😉
