  • Hi,

    Are you using a child theme? I can guide you through this process.

    And you need to set your image as the Featured Image of the post. 🙂

    I Created by myself a child theme but it was useless.
    i created a folder in wp-content/themes/zerif-lite-child.

    i insert a styles.css file with this code inside:

    /*
     Theme Name:   Zerif Lite Child
     Theme URI:    http://albanesibrescia.it/Prova1/twenty-fifteen-child/
     Description:  Zerif Lite Child Theme
     Author:       Alban Muzaka
     Author URI:   http://albanesibrescia.it/Prova1
     Template:     zerif-lite
     Version:      1.0.0
     License:      GNU General Public License v2 or later
     License URI:  http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
     Tags:         light, dark, two-columns, right-sidebar, responsive-layout, accessibility-ready
     Text Domain:  zerif-lite-child
    */

    and then i just added a functions.php file with this code:

    <?php
    
    function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
            return 30;
    }
    add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'custom_excerpt_length', 999 );
    
    function new_zerif_excerpt_more( $more ) {
            return ' <a class="read-more" href="'. get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . '">' . __('... continua a leggere <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'zerif-lite') . '</a>';
    }
    add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_zerif_excerpt_more');
    
    function my_undo_hooks( $more ) {
        remove_filter('excerpt_more', 'zerif_excerpt_more' );
    }
    add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_undo_hooks' );

    dont know what to do next and if the code is ok or not

    Hey Hardeep,

    can you please help me?
    Someone can help me? Once i create a child theme do i have to activate it? if i activate it is only a disaster!

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Why don’t you edit the latest_news.php file instead and add a custom link below the_except tag? 🙂

    Hardeep is there a solution for my request?

    Hi,

    You can use the following code below the_excerpt(); tag in big_title.php file:

    <?php echo '<a class="read-more" href="'. get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . '">' . __('... continua a leggere <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'zerif-lite') . '</a>'; ?>

    Hello Hardeep,

    First thank you very much for your help but
    I dont have that function!
    This is the big.title.php code on zerif-lite/section folder

    <?php
    
    		echo '<div class="container">';
    
    		$zerif_bigtitle_title = get_theme_mod('zerif_bigtitle_title',__('To add a title here please go to Customizer','zerif-lite'));
    
    		if( !empty($zerif_bigtitle_title) ):
    
    			echo '<h1 class="intro-text">'.__($zerif_bigtitle_title,'zerif-lite').'</h1>';
    
    		endif;
    
    		$zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_label = get_theme_mod('zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_label',__('One button','zerif-lite'));
    
    		$zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_url = get_theme_mod('zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_url','#');
    
    		$zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_label = get_theme_mod('zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_label',__('Another button','zerif-lite'));
    
    		$zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_url = get_theme_mod('zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_url','#');
    
    		if( (!empty($zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_label) && !empty($zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_url)) ||
    
    		(!empty($zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_label) && !empty($zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_url))):
    
    			echo '<div class="buttons">';
    
    				if ( !empty($zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_label) && !empty($zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_url) ):
    
    					echo '<a href="'.$zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_url.'" class="btn btn-primary custom-button red-btn">'.__($zerif_bigtitle_redbutton_label,'zerif-lite').'</a>';
    
    				endif;
    
    				if ( !empty($zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_label) && !empty($zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_url) ):
    
    					echo '<a href="'.$zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_url.'" class="btn btn-primary custom-button green-btn">'.__($zerif_bigtitle_greenbutton_label,'zerif-lite').'</a>';
    
    				endif;
    
    			echo '</div>';
    
    		endif;
    
    		echo '</div>';
    
    		echo '<div class="clear"></div>';
    
    ?>

    Hello Hardeep,

    any idea?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,

    Sorry but I meant latest_news.php, not the big_title.php. I apologize for wasting your time. Sorry. 🙂

    Hello Hardeep,

    Your solution was ok, i did it but it was not complete!
    As i mentioned you i wanted the same thing in the singele page like i show you in the picture.

    I did it even with child theme (you can download the child theme) the same thing but it was uncomplete like yours!

    I want in the latest news section the reading more option after ex. 50 characters, the same thing if someone is going in the project menu should see all the articles with the same visulization and reading more option after 50 charachters. Should be like this:

    PHOTO

    Thank you very much for your help

    Hi,

    Then you need to edit https://github.com/Codeinwp/zerif-pro/blob/production/template-blog.php file, too.

    However, below this:

    get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );

    will go:

    echo '<a class="read-more" href="'. get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) . '">' . __('... continua a leggere <span class="meta-nav">&rarr;</span>', 'zerif-lite') . '</a>';

    Hello Hardeep,

    I change the template-blog.php like you suggestioned but nothing happens!
    Maybe because they are not blog templates but they are category. Is not problem! All i need is that in the last news section on home page the article is not long more than 50 charac. but is at long as the article itself!
    Is ugly!

    Thank you!
    BR
