Title: Continue Reading link Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Continue Reading link * Resolved [gaszer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gaszer/) * (@gaszer) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/) * First – nice plugin. Does exactly as expected. * I’m using the shortcode on my front (static page), but the continue reading link at the bottom of the excerpt is only showing a link back to the same (front) page. * I’ve checked it (the continue reading link) on the categories page, and everything is fine. * Any suggestions? * thanks, Gary * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/column-posts/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/column-posts/) Viewing 13 replies - 1 through 13 (of 13 total) * Plugin Author [lebasca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lebasca/) * (@lebasca) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460799) * Hi Gary, * Go to your theme folder, open the file functions.php and add the following code: /*——————————————————————- Changing excerpt more */ function new_excerpt_more($more) { global $post; return‘…’;} add_filter(‘excerpt_more’, ‘new_excerpt_more’); * Regards, Lebasca * [kjc1977](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kjc1977/) * (@kjc1977) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460817) * Hi, * Im having the same issue where the link at the bottom of the excerpts within the plugin dont work and only direct to the home page yet they work on category pages. * I have tried adding the code suggested into the functions.php but this doesn’t change the output from the plugin. * Plugin Author [lebasca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lebasca/) * (@lebasca) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460818) * Hi there, * My solution that I offer you is to remove the continue reading link at the bottom of the excerpt and replace it with ‘…’. To do this, follow these instructions: 1. Open the file functions.php in your theme folder(I guess you use TwentyTen theme) and look for the following function name: twentyten_auto_excerpt_more. Replace this code: function twentyten_auto_excerpt_more( $more ) { return ‘ …’. twentyten_continue_reading_link(); } with: function twentyten_auto_excerpt_more( $more ) { /*return ‘ …’ . twentyten_continue_reading_link();*/ return ‘ …’; } * Note: If you added the code suggested in my previous reply, please remove it. * Hope this can help you this time, Lebasca * [kjc1977](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kjc1977/) * (@kjc1977) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460819) * Thanks that removes the link, is there no way to get the link to point to the corresponding post? * Thanks * Plugin Author [lebasca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lebasca/) * (@lebasca) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460820) * Hi there, I just released a new version (1.2.2) to fix this bug. * Cheers * [kjc1977](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kjc1977/) * (@kjc1977) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460821) * Lebasca, * Ive updated and it appears that your plugin is now causing a 500 internal server error. * Ive deleted the plugin and took a look at my error logs and it is coming up with a premature end of script headers * Thanks Kev * Plugin Author [lebasca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lebasca/) * (@lebasca) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460822) * Hi Kev, Are you completely sure is my plugin causing a 500 internal server error?

Have you tried to assign your custom sidebar to your post? For any issue related to this plugin, go to the support forum of this plugin [http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-sidebars](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-sidebars) * [Rami](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rameeha/) * (@rameeha) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460827) * Thank you very much for your replay Lebasca. I used [http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-sidebars](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-sidebars) and it works for me. But sometime, when i used Custom-sidebar for some posts the side bar in the older post will be changed means the older posts become without sidebar. Hope you understands my problem. If you u don’t mind suggest me a way to attain my goal. And once more thanks for your replay. * Plugin Author [lebasca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lebasca/) * (@lebasca) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460828) * Sorry but I don’t know how to solve this issue. As I told you in my previous reply, you have to go to the [Custom Sidebars Support Forum](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-sidebars) and post your issue there. I only support in this forum Column Posts plugin issues. Thanks. * [Rami](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rameeha/) * (@rameeha) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/continue-reading-link-2/#post-3460829) * Yup!!! Thank you again. I can figure out my problem. Thank you so much. I like your plug-in!!!
