Hello Support !
See Anecdotes:
https://understand-culture.com/anecdotes/The anecdotes are by nature long.
They are stories. It would be much easier
for the user to scroll through if they were
first presented with an excerpt, and then
choose “More” if they want to read the full
page.Is there a way to custom-specify which
kinds of pages (literally pages not posts)
can be set to excerpt, in this case anecdotes?Thanks.
John
Correction !
The anecdotes are posts and not pages.
My fear is that activating excerpt applies
it to all posts on the site, and therefore
it is not possible to specify certain posts.Customer Support
Hi John,
Not sure if I fully understand.
The link provided is a static page so there isn’t en excerpt by default.
What exactly are you trying to achieve?
Hi Leo,
Thanks for the rapid reply.
Click on anything in the directory:
Author (Magee) or Topic (Process).Trying to achieve?
There are about 30 anecdotes under
Anecdotes. When you scroll through
them you get each one as full text.I would like an excerpt to be diplayed
first. Users can then choose an anecdote
by then clicking on “More.”John
Hi Leo,
I just noticed that I had posted this same
support topic at the end of February.Dave responded back then. I responded to his
response by putting it on hold.A few minutes ago I took it up again by sending
Dave a long message. See it below under my name.However, when I posted it I must have marked
the support topic as resolved. It is not. That’s
why I’m sending it to you here.Sorry for the confusion. Please either you or
Dave respond to below.Thanks, Leo !
John
________________
Hi Dave,
I do want to revisit this.
In fact, I created a new topic yesterday on this.
Then today stumbled across above.Here’s the situation:
I have different kinds of posts on my site:
— over 1k examples under Patterns
— a whole bunch of Exercises
— about 60 Q&As under Questions
— roughly 30 posts under Anecdotes.And with luck there will be more coming
of all of those types of posts.You can take a look at them via the menu:
http://www.understand-culture.comPatterns, Exercises, and Questions are brief.
No need for them to be presented as excerpts.Anecdotes, however, are by their very nature longer,
some of them long. I would like to present them as
excerpts.Is it possible to designate all anecdotes to be excerpted
while leaving Patterns, Exercises, and Questions not excerpted?Above you ask about Query Loop. I read the GP/GB
info about that but could not make heads or tails
of it.Hi John,
Unfortunately I have very little clue about what you want.
Looks like David has a better understanding in the other post so I’ll leave it to him 🙂
I’ve changed the previous topic to unresolved and will mark this one resolved.
Thanks!
Ok, thanks, Leo, and my apologies
for the confusion.John
No problem 🙂
