[Resolved] #more-6

[Michael]

Hi,
I am moving a site to GPP and have got a plain front page whilst I work on things. I have added a latest-posts blog to show 5 posts on the front page and all looks fine until I save the page and view it in a browser. In the preview, the post excerpts read fine and link to the article post but in browser mode the read-more button for each post links to ../#more-6.

Is this me messing things up or something to do wtih GPP / WordPress?
Thanks for taking a look.

Hi there,

this document explains how to remove the more jump link:

Thanks David,
is there a reason why this happens, the link works fine in preview but becomes the more link when viewed in the browser.

[David]

Its a default behaviour when using the More tag in your posts – the link takes the user straight to where the excerpt finishes.

I don’t really get that as the ‘read more’ button (x5 on the page) all get the same url of #more-6 and when the button is pressed there is no action taken and the link does not take me anywhere.

Hi,
I just changed the Blog setting to show text rather than a button for read-more. Now the homepage links all point towards the home page and not the articles. Surely the links should be pointing to the article?

[David]

Sorry i just checked your site and you’re using the Latest Posts block – that looks to be a known bug with that core block:

Thanks David,
Sorry to bother you with this, I thought it was a GPP issue rather than WordPress. Much appreciate your help.

[David]

No problems – next time ill look at the site before i make conclusions.
Personally i still use WP Show Posts for that purpose – it may not have a visual editor yet but it works 🙂

[Michael]

I will look into WP Show Posts if that will do the same job for me, I have not found something in ‘site-library’ for our Association although suspect there is one. In the meantime, I am treading carefully with GPP but could really do with a Dummies book! LOL!
Unbelievably great support from the forum here, thanks massively!

Glad we could be of help
