[Resolved] Making a print button

[Oliver]

I would like people to be able to print the content area of each post by clicking a button. I found this answer from Tom Print, but I don´t know how to translate that into a button that prints the post content. Where should the button be directed to? or should it just have a class like this:

.print {
@media print {
      .side-header, 
      .main-navigation, 
      .secondary-navigation, 
      .widget-area, 
      .footer-widgets {
            display: none;
      }
 }
      body {
            font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
      }
}

Hi Oliver,

Making an actual button would require a button or a custom solution which is out of the scope of this support forum.

I just google “Print Button WordPress” and saw quite a few articles on it as it’s not a theme-specific request.

Hope this helps to get you started 🙂

Hey Leo thanks for taking the time… I searched and did come across a nice tutorial. If anyone ever needs this and sees this post here is the link

Thanks again Leo and have a nice day!

Hello Oliver,

Thank you for providing the link about adding a print button to a WordPress page or post without a plugin.
Even though it is an article from 2013, it is really useful.

Best regards,
Marcel

No problem Oliver.

And thanks for sharing a working solution 🙂
