Hi,
First of all, your theme is great, I love it.
I have only one problem: When you click on the title of a post to read it it will open the post page with the full content of that page. Right now the title of the post page is a link to the same post, linking the page to itself. I will like to make the title to be only text on the post page.Thank you
If it’s simply a matter of appearance, you can use:
.single .entry-title a { color: #777; cursor: text; font-size: 25px; text-decoration: none; }https://startupwp.com/topic/customizing-your-theme/
Otherwise, we’ll need to dig into the code to hack the PHP.
Thank you for your quick reply but it’s not about appearance. I don’t think that you understood me. Right now the title of each post is also a link to the same post, basically the page will have a loop link. I think that when you load the full post the title should be only text, not a link.
To understand better please take a look here. As you can see the title of the post, “The tech news of the day. 09/08/2014” is also a link to the same page. I will like to be only text.
This is the code:
<a href="http://www.computeronechicago.com/news-of-the-day-september-08-2014/" title="The tech news of the day. 09/08/2014" rel="bookmark">The tech news of the day. 09/08/2014</a>
I will like to remove the anchor html tag.Thank you
I fixed it. For everybody who will want to do it:
On the child theme modify the entry.php file:
Replace
<?php if ( is_singular() ) {echo '<h1 class="entry-title">';} else {echo '<h2 class="entry-title">';} ?><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php printf( __('Read %s', 'startup'), the_title_attribute('echo=0') ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a><?php if ( is_singular() ) {echo '</h1>';} else {echo '</h2>';} ?>
with
<?php if ( is_singular() ) { echo '<h1 class="entry-title">'; } else { echo '<h2 class="entry-title">'; } ?><?php the_title(); ?><?php if ( is_singular() ) { echo '</h1>'; } else { echo '</h2>'; } ?> <?php edit_post_link(); ?>Actually, that will disable the ability to reach the single post from archive, tag, cat and search pages, instead, use:
<?php if ( is_singular() ) {echo '<h1 class="entry-title">';} else {echo '<h2 class="entry-title">';} ?><?php if ( !is_singular() ) {echo '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="<?php printf( __('Read %s', 'startup'), the_title_attribute('echo=0') ); ?>" rel="bookmark">';}<?php the_title(); ?><?php if ( !is_singular() ) {echo '</a>';}<?php if ( is_singular() ) {echo '</h1>';} else {echo '</h2>';} ?>Thank you.
Hi,
I tried your code but I’m getting the following error: “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘Read’ (T_STRING), expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in …/wp-content/themes/startuppro-child/entry.php on line 3”
For now I put back my code.
Thank you.
Apologies, give this a try:
<?php if ( is_singular() ) { echo '<h1 class="entry-title">'; } else { echo '<h2 class="entry-title">'; } ?><?php if ( !is_singular() ) { echo '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '">'; } ?><?php the_title(); ?><?php if ( !is_singular() ) { echo '</a>'; } ?><?php if ( is_singular() ) { echo '</h1>'; } else { echo '</h2>'; } ?>Hi,
I tried the second code but it’s not working either, I’m getting the same error message:
“Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’, expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in …/wp-content/themes/startuppro-child/entry.php on line 3”That’s OK. For what I need I think that the solution that I found is good enough. If I will notice something not working properly I can always just delete the file from the child theme and it will use the original one from the parent theme.
Thank you for your help.
Fixed another error in the above code if you’d like to give it a try.
Thank you.
Yes, this time everything works just fine.
Thank you very much for your help. You have a great theme.
Excellent.
