You’re very welcome and thank you as well for choosing Seasonal.
It does support most of the post formats, including the “Link” one, but when you say “ill effect” and messes with mobile chrome, could you please provide more detail? Actually a link would also be great so I can try this out.
Oh, thought I had included the link
54countries.com
The top post is a link post format. The title doesn’t get linked, neither to the single post view locally, nor the first URL linked in the article (I’d prefer the later). And on mobile chrome the headline doesn’t show at all. Instead, the post body gets mangled with the header content.
Sorry for late reply…
Thanks for the link. After grabbing chunks of code from your page and making sure everything was OK, I discovered that you made some custom CSS changes in the theme. This code you see below is more likely the problem when I found that you have this in a custom stylesheet:
.sidebar {
position: absolute;
}
Was there a reason for that one?
You should remove that.
I use this to make the sidebar scroll, as the menu tends to be cut off on smaller screens. Is there any other way to have the sidebar scroll?
Removing the css solves the mobile issues, but Link posts are still not actually linked.
Thanks for looking into this!
The design wasn’t really meant to have a scrollable sidebar, but to gain some extra vertical space for small height screens, you have a few options:
1. make your logo map smaller to gain some height space
2. Use the Float Sidebar menu to the top setting in “Other Options”
3. Under Typography Options, make your menu items a smaller font to gain space
Ok, thanks for the tips. Any idea how to solve the link issue?
Usually link post formats are not subject to linking to the full post; usually the content is a link only. But, what I can do is add this capability to the next theme update. In the meantime, you can modify the theme file “content-link.php” with the change I will show below. This will be OK to edit because it will be on the update version.
In the WordPress admin editor, open the theme’s content-link.php file and look for this:
<?php the_title( '<h2 class="entry-title" itemprop="name">', '</h2>' ); ?>
…and replace that line with this:
<?php seasonal_post_header(); ?>
Thanks for the solution and the great support! If you make this an option in the next version of the theme, it would be great to be able to choose between
1) no link
2) link to the single post view (the solution you have proposed here)
3) link to the first url in the post
Thanks and all the best!
You’re very welcome, and thank you as well because I always like getting suggestions from my theme users because it helps make improvements.
