Any update on this? Would love to get this functionality back.
Nothing? No response whatsoever? Has this been abandoned?
I just installed this and it will only show blog posts on the home page setting, but not the blog template setting. Any chance for an update or anything?
I think this plugin is dead. I’ve uninstalled it on all my sites.
Nice, how much of a programmer do you have to be to use this though? I don’t want to be messing around with code all day.
I threw it on my blog template page and the only problem I had was that my full width footer ended up at the 960 pixel width, which was caused by one of the blog posts having an open tag like <div> but not a close tag. It ended up being from a youtube video embed that was longer than the post output.
the fix was just adding <!--more--> just above the video to put the wordpress default read more button.
Have you tried to edit the template pages at all?
this was my final code for it btw, added to page_blog.php
add_filter("the_content", "break_text");
function break_text($text){
$length = 630;
if(strlen($text)<$length+10) return $text; //don't cut if too short
$break_pos = strpos($text, ' ', $length); //find next space after desired length
$visible = substr($text, 0, $break_pos);
return balancetags($visible) . " <br><a href='" . get_permalink() . "'>[Read more]</a>";
}
I have, I do, I just don’t like to because my php isn’t very good. It’s more trial and error than coding. 🙂 I’ll check this out though. I’m surprised that there is not a next/previous post navigation for genesis. It’s generally a very well looked after framework.
I’m not all that great with php either. That little code actually took me a couple hours to get it working right, after spending half the day finding one that actually worked lol. But Once it’s configured it’s easy, and that’s basically the full config right there.
It makes it so it doesn’t cut off words, which looks terrible and gives you the [Read more] link directly under the text.
happy to help 😀 I’m trying to start a wordpress help site. it’s pretty small still but as I come across things it’ll be getting bigger lol

I’ll certainly check this out!
Awesome ^_^ I’m pretty sure I have it set for people to submit requests on things too. If not I’ll have that done within the week. I have a large number of sites I’m working on right now (15-20) so I’m a little behind schedule
patrickhealy,
For post navigation could use this code snippet
function cc_single_post_navigation() {
if ( ! is_singular( 'post' ) )
return; ?>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="pagination-prev alignleft"><?php previous_post_link(); ?></div>
<div class="pagination-next alignright"><?php next_post_link(); ?></div>
</div>
<?php }
add_action( 'genesis_after_post_content', 'cc_single_post_navigation' );
Let me know if you have any issues with it. There also is a plugin by David Decker who does some really great Genesis Plugins: http://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-single-post-navigation/
otfromtot, thanks for helping out patrick, sorry, my plugin didn’t work for you. I have recently updated it, hopefully will fix any issues you may have been having, as well as for you, patrickhealy. Sorry you had to uninstall it from all your sites.
Anyways, if have any questions, I should be able to respond quite quickly.
Thanks!
